We see it happen all the time - a person is charged, arrested, and even found guilty of a crime. Then, we find that person has made a profession of faith in Jesus Christ. That doesn’t exempt a person from the consequences of his or her misdeeds, but it can produce a heart change, as a person accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior and receives eternal life. We heard recently about a prisoner who had esse...  Read More

We have a sense of “man vs. the machine” in our culture today - we depend on technology to bring information, provide entertainment, and even provide further “intelligence” for our daily chores.  But, are there optional activities that we participate in but don’t really enjoy?  And, could God be speaking to us to perhaps rearrange our priorities?Scripture Passage (ESV): Ecclesiastes 2:24-26...  Read More

The Bible speaks to the concept of honor - while I don’t believe that we are to seek recognition for what we personally may have achieved, I do think it is highly appropriate and affirming to show honor toward those who have been shining examples to our society, especially within the Church, who have lived exemplary lives and present a testimony of how God has used them. Scripture Passage (ESV): 2...  Read More

Wherever we go, wherever we are placed by God, we can bring the light of Christ into relationships and situations. We have to make sure that we are walking in the Spirit and demonstrating the love of God, certainly, but we can draw strength from the presence of the Lord, who walks with us. We are spreading, as the Bible says, the aroma of Christ. Scripture Passage (ESV): 2nd Corinthians 2:14-16...  Read More

It is truly fascinating to see how God uses a variety of practices and activities in order to glorify His name. The skills that the Lord has entrusted to you can be tools in His hands to testify to His greatness within you, and can be used to shine the light of Jesus Christ and to reach others with the gospel. Scripture Passage (ESV): Jude 20-23...  Read More

I have had several guests on the program recently who have discussed the patterns that God ordains for our lives.  One described the seasons of our life as being a “circle.”  Another described our life cycles as “spirals,” like a DNA molecule.  I admit there are seasons, and that God leads us through those different periods of our lives, and that we can learn from the past season as we traverse pe...  Read More

God has opened up to us the riches of His truth - He has given us His inspired, infallible Word, and has provided the Holy Spirit to guide us and bring that word to light.  It’s more than just words on a page, God’s words will illuminate our souls and bring truth into the reality of our spirits and our minds.  But, in order to go deeper with the Lord, we have to open our our hearts to receive what...  Read More

It is important that we have a predetermined set of criteria, a prism through which we can discern which candidate we should vote for - and that is determined by our Biblical worldview.  So, as we say, vote for the candidate who best lines up with your Christian values.  That is also true for amendments, such as the one authorizing the Pledge of Allegiance and student-led, student-initiated prayer...  Read More

The power of the gospel can penetrate hearts so that people are open to receive Jesus Christ. And, He opens doors in a variety of different ways. But, we can be convinced that He died for all humanity, so that those who call upon His name can be saved and enter into a dynamic relationship with Himself. Scripture Passage (ESV): Titus 2:11-14...  Read More

This weekend, there will be images that will be seen, costumes to be worn, activities in which people will participate, that will glorify evil and perpetuate a culture of fear. That’s why the Church will recommend and even present alternatives to these activities, so that hearts are protected.  We have to be careful to take care of what we allow into our minds, so that the enemy is not given an op...  Read More
