The Bible uses the terms babes, young men, fathers, elders, children, and several others to indicate where a person is in their spiritual maturity.

The Fulfilling of Prophecy
I love having conversations with people. I love talking to people about what they believe; not just about God and religion, but what they believe about any subject, which team will win the World Series, who they are going to vote for, what their dream car is, their favorite meal, and so on.

The Acceleration Of Ezekiel 38
Since Israel became a nation again in 1948, Ezekiel 38 has been one of the most discussed and written about prophecies in the Bible.

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

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.
