I will start this column out with a disclaimer. This week’s column is not a commentary on the recent elections. It is not a commentary on any political party or candidate. This week’s column looks at Biblical prophecy and what it says about the United States. Some prophecy teachers attempt to read the United States … Continue reading The Future of America

Prophecy Concerns of October 2026
As October 2026 came to a close, one thing became increasingly apparent: the world is moving through a period of extraordinary uncertainty. Wars, threats of additional conflicts, diplomatic negotiations, economic changes, and developments surrounding Jerusalem continue to remind Bible-believing Christians of the prophetic Scriptures. For those watching the signs of the times, October provided plenty … Continue reading Prophecy Concerns of October 2026
It’s All Coming Together
Over the years, I have noticed that when most Christians look at prophecy and the unfolding of end-time events, they tend to focus on one sign at a time. However, it is important to look at prophecy as a whole. Many things have been happening recently that are setting the stage for prophecy. When you … Continue reading It’s All Coming Together
What You Don’t Know Will Hurt You
Years ago, I played in a church basketball league. For this particular game, I had the keys to the building in which we were going to play. I arrived about two hours early. It had snowed about an inch and a half that day, and the parking lot had not yet been plowed. I parked … Continue reading What You Don’t Know Will Hurt You
Reconciliation
When reading or studying the Bible, it is always helpful to note when God repeats Himself. Look for the same words or phrases that are duplicated over the span of a few verses or a chapter. On a broader scale, a word study throughout the Bible can be very interesting. Pick a word, then look … Continue reading Reconciliation
The Fruits of Saving Faith
When a person places faith in the blood sacrifice of Jesus Christ as their only means of salvation, they are saved (John 3:14-19, 36; Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3:28; Romans 4:5; Galatians 2:16; John 5:24; Acts 16:30-31; Titus 3:5).

Forty Years of Bricks
I am not a fan of what the rest of the world calls “football.” I cannot tell you the score of any game played during the World Cup. However, I do love America, and I have loved seeing hundreds of short reels from people around the world talking about how great America is. I’ve watched … Continue reading Forty Years of Bricks
The Call
I’ve written a lot recently, encouraging Christians to follow the steps in Romans 12:1-2 to “prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Those steps are being a living sacrifice to God, not being conformed to this world, and being transformed by the renewing of your mind. I’ve been asked, “What … Continue reading The Call
Knowing God’s Will For Your Life
Christian, do you know what God wants you to do, what He created you to do? God does call people to preach. God calls people to leave family and possessions behind and move to a foreign land to spread the gospel. God calls people to work or volunteer at Church; things like cleaning, teaching, cooking, … Continue reading Knowing God’s Will For Your Life
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. Regardless of … Continue reading The Fulfilling of Prophecy
