     | 5,013 views

    If a fully trained student is like his teacher, we need to seriously consider who we allow to hold that position in our life and in our children’s lives.

    In a culture where the lines of right and wrong, good and evil have become blurred, how and who determines what is the standard for what is true and what is false?

    Have you ever noticed how criticism can be a way of life? In fact, we might say that it is the democratic way of life and an integral part of our society. We have music critics, art critics, drama critics and movies critics. Politicians, athletes, teachers and preachers are critiqued. We critique ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,213 views

God is distant - if you see Him you die and he lives far away in heaven where we can never touch Him. God ...read more

    Our decision to share our faith can be built on shifting sands, or solid rock.

    I’ve met folks who think that if Jesus walked among us today like he did back in Galilee, we’d be so much better off in our Christianity.
