Does America Have Hope?

History was always one of my favorite subjects in school.  Wars move borders, crush and strengthen ideologies. They are pivotal to human history. Wars occur for various reasons: a power-hungry leader wants more power, a nation is hungry; hence, the decision comes to grab land from a neighbor to grow more food, two leaders are … Continue reading Does America Have Hope?

Seeking A Church Home

Loyalty is one of my attributes. I am loyal to my God, family, church, country, and employer. The list goes on, but those are the main things. You may have noticed that God and church are listed separately. That is because they are not one and the same - the church is not my God, … Continue reading Seeking A Church Home

What Will 2024 Bring?

What will 2024 bring? God only knows. I wish the most important things to consider were who will win the Super Bowl and World Series. But alas, whoever wins the sporting events makes little to no difference in the grand scheme of things. For the record, I am a huge sports fan; go, Guardians! Go … Continue reading What Will 2024 Bring?

The Founding Fathers And America Today

Throughout generations, things change. For example, some of the social graces practically no longer exist, such as standing when a woman enters a room or a man removing headgear while inside. Just two small examples of change over the years. During the recent Fourth of July celebrations, a thought came to mind - what would … Continue reading The Founding Fathers And America Today

“Power Was Given Him Over All…”

A time of change is coming. No one knows how quickly the change will come. For example, when I was younger, the Soviet Union and the United States were the world's superpowers. The might of each nation was so strong; no one would mess with either. Yet, a shocked world watched as the Soviet Union … Continue reading “Power Was Given Him Over All…”

America In Scripture

Over the years, people have tried to place America in the end-time events of Scripture. It is difficult for many to accept that a nation as powerful as the United States is not a prominent player in the last days; therefore, it must be there.  The reason for the first paragraph is when people see … Continue reading America In Scripture

Trust – Where Are You?

We have reached a time in our country when trust is nearly nonexistent. As a Pastor, from time to time, I will counsel married couples. Any problem can be solved if trust is still in play. Once either person loses faith in the other, it is a long, hard road returning to a working relationship. … Continue reading Trust – Where Are You?

Destruction Of The Foundations

"If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?" - Psalm 11:3. When I see this verse, the first thought that comes to mind is, "What are the foundations?" My second thought is, "What about America?" One needs to go no further than the Declaration of Independence to get a list of American foundations. … Continue reading Destruction Of The Foundations

Division and Fear

What does the Bible say about those in authority? All authority, from a fifteen-year-old babysitter to the leaders of nations, comes from God (Romans 13:1). However, this God-given authority does not give people in authority the right to exercise absolute rule. Leaders and those in power are "the minister of God, a revenger to execute … Continue reading Division and Fear
