Most importantly, everyone should pray for the people of Myanmar and Thailand and everyone involved in the rescue and recovery attempts. As the world watches the thousands of videos from the quake itself and its aftermath, we can see the devastation and understand the urgency of the moment.

The Most Important Event In History
We will celebrate history's most important event in a little over a month. Technically, it is two separate events, but they happened the same weekend. Without the first, you cannot have the second; without the second, the first is meaningless. Event number one is the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. The second is His resurrection. Hundreds … Continue reading The Most Important Event In History
His Sake Or Yours?
As individual Christians, do we wander through life as Israel did for forty years in the wilderness, or do we have a purpose and goal that we strive toward every day like the Apostle Paul? Even when we knock off the "to do list" - go to church, read the Bible, pray, and so on … Continue reading His Sake Or Yours?
Let’s Talk Ukraine
The world is on edge after what happened in the Oval Office last week between Presidents Trump, Zelenskyy, and Vice President Vance. I am seeing some interesting comments on social media. A few Trump supporters favor Zelenskyy, and some anti-Trump people praise President Trump for his actions in the exchange between the two leaders. However, … Continue reading Let’s Talk Ukraine
The Church Needs CPR
Someone is walking down the street and sees someone lying on the ground. The person rushes over, finds the person unresponsive, calls for help, and starts CPR. A few moments later, the person revives. This scene occurs hundreds of times a day worldwide. In hospitals, the monitors attached to a patient often start that long … Continue reading The Church Needs CPR

Ezekiel 38 Alliances Taking Shape
When studying Biblical prophecy, it is impossible to give dates. We cannot say that a particular event will occur on this date. Some prophecies, however, can be arranged in sequence; we know event A will precede event B. Other prophecies are more elusive; we are still determining where they fall in the sequence of events. … Continue reading Ezekiel 38 Alliances Taking Shape
Regardless Of Who Wins
This column is sent to newspapers on Monday, usually before noon. Since most receiving papers are weekly publications, published on Wednesday or Thursday, and most daily newspapers that share Preacher's Point usually publish the column sometime over the weekend, nearly everyone will read these words after the results of this year's election are known. This … Continue reading Regardless Of Who Wins
Warnings From Jeremiah
As I read Jeremiah, I cannot help but see the parallels between the United States and Israel of old. Do not get me wrong; Israel is God's nation. God gives promises to Israel that belong to no other country, but there are striking similarities in spiritual history. God makes it clear that Jeremiah is a … Continue reading Warnings From Jeremiah
Generations
I overheard a conversation between a mother and her twelve-year-old daughter about ten years ago. The scene was a parade. A local church had a float in the parade with a man on a cross. "Why is that man hanging on that cross?" "That's church stuff. You don't need to worry about that." Something to … Continue reading Generations
