Even if you’re a Christian, you might have found, at least a time or two, that you were unable to pray away your frustration face. You know, that face you make when it seems like everything is working against you. I’m not talking about the run-of-the-mill frustrations like dropping your grocery bag as you try to unlock the front or back door of your … The rest of the story…

I’ve been encouraging anybody who would read what I write and listen to what I say to remain optimistic in tough times. But I don’t just say the words. I also share why it’s not just good advice. It’s important to your health down to the marrow of your bones. Remain optimistic in tough times because the alternative should be unthinkable. The subject came … The rest of the story…
The meaningful things in life don’t come easy. I hope that doesn’t burst any bubbles for you. Because it’s the cold, hard truth. Even if it seems like someone else has it easy in life, I promise you they don’t. It might look like they do. And they might have some parts easier than you, but the things that matter most won’t come easy … The rest of the story…
Guess what others might not have more of than you. Before you guess, you should also keep in mind in they might have much less than you. And they might not ever have as much as you. Looks can be deceiving. And what you see in this world doesn’t last forever. But grace lasts forever. And God gives grace to the humble. Yeah, God … The rest of the story…
As long as I can remember there have been “peace talks” and “peace agreements” and “peace accords” all over the world. Trouble is…I’ve never gotten the feeling that the world is at peace. Have you noticed that? For as long as I can remember (and that’s a lot longer than it used to be) there have been wars. We’ve been fortunate here in America. … The rest of the story…
I make bold, public statements about how Jesus is the only way to eternal life in paradise with God. And I never make apologies for saying it as though it’s the absolute truth. Because it’s the absolute truth. Whether I believe it or not. Of course I do believe it. But nothing I, or anyone else in the world, can do will ever change … The rest of the story…
Yeah, your life is your own, and it’s unique. No one else who ever lived, is living now, or will ever live will have the same life as you. But your life is no different from anybody else’s either. Confused? I’ll explain. The DNA found in every cell of your body is incredibly complex and singularly yours. The chances of it existing by chance … The rest of the story…
There’s a real good reason to tell the truth anytime it’s possible. Lies are like quicksand. Because they’re so much harder to remember. Especially when you use them all the time. Even though lies are like quicksand, sometimes it’s good to lie. Yeah, I said that. Oh, you want me to prove it? OK. How about when people were hiding Jews from Nazis. German … The rest of the story…
Ape man. That’s a mutually exclusive oxymoron. You can find a man. You can find an ape. But you go ape and never find an ape man. Because there never were any. And there never will be any. And that claim makes a lot of people go ape. But it ain’t just my knucklehead opinion. It’s a claim backed by over a hundred years … The rest of the story…
Probably. Because people are so easily offended these day. And they’re so quick to anger. And so slow to wisdom. But guess what? That’s not new. You might believe you’re part of the cream of the cause du jour. But you’re only doing what human beings have done for thousands of years. Rebelling against God. And I know the “cool peeps” aren’t gonna listen … The rest of the story…
