Celebrating 250
by Bob Crittenden on June 25th, 2026
We have seen nations and regimes come and go, but what has been described as the “American experiment,” a unique experiment in self-governance, has been sustained for this 2-1/2 century time frame. And, I believe that our collective trust in God and Biblical principles that have contributed to its founding have led to our nation enduring. The Bible says in Psalm 33:12 (ESV): “Blessed is the nation...  Read More

Long-Awaited
by Bob Crittenden on June 25th, 2026
When it comes to addressing cultural issues from a Biblical perspective, there are a number of avenues at our disposal as followers of Christ. We can certainly be prayerful. And vocal.

A Chilling Effect
by Bob Crittenden on June 23rd, 2026
There is disturbing news out the U.K. regarding thousands of women and girls who have been the victims of unspeakable acts.  The ties to radical Islam are unmistakable. The means to the Islamist end is far different than the furtherance of the Christian gospel and the adherence to the Great Commission, predicated on the love of our Savior, who died for us.  While we are called to love all, we must...  Read More

Disregard and Disrespect
by Bob Crittenden on June 22nd, 2026
In the midst of despair, there is hope for those who have become victims of this sinful practice of human trafficking, an expression of desires that have not been brought to the cross and put to death. Therefore, this culture of disregard and disrespect continues to build victims and leaving a trail of broken lives.  We can praise God for those instances of rescues and realize that while sin has i...  Read More

by Bob Crittenden on June 19th, 2026
The World Cup presents a ministry opportunity to those who will attend from various countries, and a selected number of players themselves see it as a platform through which they can testify to the presence of Christ within them. 1st Corinthians 10:31 (ESV) states: “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” ...  Read More

Isolated
by Bob Crittenden on June 18th, 2026
God has made it possible for us to have a relationship with Him through our acceptance of His one and only Son as the Savior of our lives. We can come to Him, we can know His presence, and we can experience the community of believers who have also made that profession of faith in Him. In an era in which there is widespread loneliness and isolation, God tells us that He will be with us. ...  Read More

It’s been some 10 years since the Obama administration issued a “Dear Colleague” letter to protect the so-called “rights” of transgender students in public schools.  It opened the floodgates to all sorts of damaging ideas with regard to sexuality, launching a permissive culture in which students could explore these ideas.  It’s going to take some time to excise this ideology from various sectors o...  Read More

Quacks Like a Duck
by Bob Crittenden on June 15th, 2026
We should be very careful to make sure that we are acting like who we say we are:  in other words, if we claim the name “Christian” or “Christ-follower,” our actions and our words should reflect Christ.  We are His representatives, and the way we behave should draw people to Him. ...  Read More
