They Just Don't Get It
by Bob Crittenden on June 16th, 2026
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.

The Family That Prays
by Bob Crittenden on June 11th, 2026
The Bible teaches us not only about our individual prayer life, as well call upon and commune with God, but it also provides direction on corporate prayer.

Artificial
by Bob Crittenden on June 4th, 2026
The Bible directs us to seek and exercise Godly wisdom, and leads us to its source. Now, there is certainly a fascination these days with this “shiny object” called artificial intelligence, which is ultimately a creation of human wisdom, the wisdom of this world, that has grown in popularity.
