We have just come through a season in our nation where we were told to believe lies calling them good. We have been told to believe those lies at the personal expense of punishment for those who reject the lies and hold onto God's truth. An appeasing Church is weak....
While some may be offended by the title of this word and read no further, the implied meaning is “Where’s the Faith”! We are all susceptible to clickbait as we browse social media, even on blogs like this one. We need to hold back our offense until we look deeper into...

It’s back-to-school time in our world. Today, most kids walk to school, take a bus, or get driven by their parents to a school located in the town where they live. My wife, Jan, took a bush plane to school. She was flown from El Salvador to Honduras in Central...
When I worked as a detective, one of the things I liked least about the assignment was having to observe an autopsy. They are gruesome, but necessary to preserve the chain of evidence, determine a cause of death, and eventually solve a crime and arrest a suspect....
