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?

The Pre-Tribulation Rapture
We are just past the halfway point of 2020, and if nothing else happened this year, it would still go down as one of the strangest years in history. The best word to describe it, I believe, is "uncertainty." People are uncertain about their health, the economy, social reform, the nation, the world. Christians around … Continue reading The Pre-Tribulation Rapture
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
To The Graduates Of 2020
We had the pleasure of attending my granddaughter Brooklynn's High School Graduation Ceremony last week. The local homeschool group hosted the event. Our State Senator, Phil Boots, gave the speech. In our area, some of the high schools have not yet held graduation. Others had online ceremonies. Still, others only allowed immediate family in the … Continue reading To The Graduates Of 2020
The Road Of The Loss Of Respect
Have you ever wondered why old habits are hard to break? I reckon the longer we do something, the harder to stop. As an example, you know what they say about riding a bicycle - you learn when you are a kid, and you never forget. Just yesterday, I had a sixty-one-year-old tell me of … Continue reading The Road Of The Loss Of Respect
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
WHILE ALL EYES ARE ON COVID…
WHILE ALL EYES ARE ON COVID… A story emerged Friday, May 22, giving signs of a critical Biblical prophecy that may be very close. Reuters had a headline of, "Iran lauds arms supply to Palestinians against 'tumor' Israel." Within the article, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei of Iran said, "The Zionist regime (Israel) is … Continue reading WHILE ALL EYES ARE ON COVID…
Study Habits
Do you remember studying for a test back in your school days? You are spending the evening reading a text over and over, answering study questions at the end of a chapter. I remember one test that had one particular question everyone missed. The teacher showed everyone that the answer was in the caption … Continue reading Study Habits
When Should The Lockdown End? Is That The Question?
Remember the days when two people could have different opinions and still get along? Now it seems if someone yields a different opinion, the labels of racist, sexist, or some other sort of “ist,” begin to fly. We are a nation divided. In this year of the virus, opinions range from a massive government … Continue reading When Should The Lockdown End? Is That The Question?
Jeremiah and the United States
For the past three decades or so, I cannot help but think of the United States when I read the book of Jeremiah. When Jeremiah begins, sin had engulfed Israel for decades. God anoints the prophet Jeremiah with the message of impending doom if Israel does not repent. Early in the book, God gives Israel … Continue reading Jeremiah and the United States
