Glorified Bodies
My son called me a couple of weeks ago, inviting me to play some disc golf. This past Saturday was the big day. We met at the course at 9 am. Some background is needed here. I am a former member of the Professional Disc Golf Association (PDGA). It's not like I was any good … Continue reading Glorified Bodies
God, Israel, Iran, Russia
As I sit down to write this column, it is 8:30 a.m. in the Eastern United States, 3:30 p.m. in Jerusalem and Moscow, and 4:00 p.m. in Tehran. Iran announced yesterday that the Iranian foreign minister would meet with Russian officials in Moscow today (Monday).

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. People need to help in any way … Continue reading Have We Witnessed A Sign?

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

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
