There is a spirit of sorcery at work in our culture, and sadly, within some parts of the Church. The mission of this spirit is to distort and misinterpret the message of Jesus Christ. This is nothing new. It took place when Barnabas and Paul were speaking to a...
As I walked to the end of our street, I noticed that a stop sign had lost one screw that attached it to a post. When the screw loosened, the sign swung down, inverting the warning to stop. The upside-down stop sign is an image of what has happened to some in the...
When the Spirit brings about significant change in a nation those who resist the change will say your obedience to God is rebellion and the established truth of Scripture is a lie. The puppets used by the enemy to control people and the institutions of society will...

Today, Jan and I celebrate our 49th anniversary. One more year until the Big 5-0. Jan has always been the woman of my dreams. I could never imagine a day without the influence of her grace and wisdom upon my life. As we have traveled together through all the years,...
What if you found out your child was being given hormone blockers to alter their created gender? What if those prescriptions were being given to them in preparation to mutilate their bodies by having mastectomies or genital mutilation without your knowledge? How would...
