Have you heard? The stories we’ve heard—the official story—of what happened on September 11, 2001, is a myth. A lie. A deception.
That’s what Dylan Avery and others like him want us to believe. The creator of “Loose Change”—a documentary film created in 2005, then revised in 2006 and 2007—claims President Bush was the real [...]

The cross is an unlikely choice for the symbol of a religion. The Jews have the Star of David as their symbol; the Buddhists a Lotus flower; Muslims display a Crescent and star. These symbols were beautiful or good from the beginning. The cross was a horrible form of execution.

A couple days into the new year, I noticed about 30 geese in perfect formation. Beautiful. Flying in a V-pattern helps them cut through the cold wind better.

Dear Roman Catholic friends,
Whether or not my old Roman Catholic friends will ask me directly, I feel certain many of you wonder why I chose to leave the RCC. Even if some of you don’t care, I really want you to know. That is the purpose of this letter and I [...]

Seventy thousand people in Australia have claimed “Jedi” as their religion. Seriously! In the last Australian census, one out of every 300 people wrote-in “Jedi” as their religion of choice. In New Zealand, more people claim to be Jedi than Jew.

There are two ways to learn: The hard way and the easy way.
Some lessons you definitely DO NOT want to learn the hard way. Never lick a steak knife. Never pet a growling dog. Never look directly at the sun. These lessons need to be learned the easy way.

I went to my office yesterday and I was blown away! One of my favorite Bible teachers was sitting in my office! We spent most of that afternoon together. He talked. I listened.
