You bet we’re flying the flag today. And feeling deep gratitude for so many things about this nation, it’s people, and its journey through history. And as I think, with gratitude, about those who in the past were willing to put themselves in harms way to protect it or advance its vital interests, I can’t […]
Wherein I weigh in on the infamous new Apple ad. One that generated an (internet) firestorm of negative opinion-ification. In case you haven’t seen it, here’s the ad. A lot of people have voiced strong, negative reactions to Apple’s new ad for the iPad Pro. Some, like this guy, see it as Apple accidentally (or […]
Last words are important words. When in Acts 20, Paul summoned the elders of the church in Ephesus, he assumed it was the last time he would ever have a chance to impart instruction, doctrine, and encouragement to them. So please note what he said to them in closing: And so now, I entrust you […]
I’ve been thinking about hope a lot the last few days. My sense is that we undervalue the power and role of hope in bringing miracles to pass. Among the big three, “faith” and “love” get all the attention. But the Bible has a lot to say about hope. –Romans 5:5 says, “Hope does not […]
NOTE: The following is a chapter from my Kindle e-book titled “Jesus Said What Now?

Like me, you’ve probably encountered many instances and “shares” of a claim that the path of the upcoming total solar eclispse that will be visible in part of the United States will pass across seven U.S. towns called “Ninevah.” A poster to the Chinese spyware app TikTok with the account name @BryceJustChillen chillingly pointed out […]

In my view, the term is being applied to three, very different phenomena. Let’s take a look at each of them. 1. The Open-Minded It’s […]
Over the years I’ve encountered scores of people who had either walked away from God or had what amounted to an “arms-length” relationship to Him because no one had offered them a satisfying answer to this question: If God is good, why is there so much tragedy and heartache in the world? As I mentioned […]
This Christmas season has been filled with heart-rending news out of Israel and infuriating news from Western Civilization’s once-great capitals–New York, London, Sydney, Paris. The former, as realities of what Hamas terrorists did on October 7 have trickled out from survivors and released hostages, and, of course, the terrorists own GoPro footage. The latter, watching […]
I simply don’t have time for a long post here, but I must mention a couple of other groups that have shown their true colors since October, 7th. You’ll find the Part 1 here, and Part 2 here. 6.
