Authority: 132

And to still others, it is an offensive grenade hurled at the camp of political correctness. According to my 1939 ...1 week ago -

All things work together for good to them who love God . (Romans 8:28 KJV ) How can anything good come from losing someone I loved so much? How can God possibly be glorified through this tragedy?

I know . . . many of you are sick of hearing about Tiger’s Wood’s car (and life) crash. Honestly, I’ve not kept a close watch on his escapades, but it’s hard to miss the media frenzy caused by his indiscretions. Although there may be some Christian media outlets weighing in on Tiger’s troubles, I’d like ...2 weeks ago -

Homemade for the Holidays - Part 2
Take Root and Write —
Authority: 132
In my last article, I discussed how one way we can bypass some of the commercialism of the season is by making homemade gifts. Not only can it be a more frugal option, but it also can be a blessing to the recipients. I have fond memories of the goodie boxes my mother-in-law prepared for family at Christmas time. ...2 weeks ago -

Dear Child, The world that you live in can be an ugly, painful place, but so can your inward world, the place in your heart. This is because you are depraved in your nature, since the day you were born. You were born into sin.

The Fruit and Your Relationships: Faith
Take Root and Write —
Authority: 132
It is interesting to me that faith is considered a fruit of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:22-23 KJV) Most of the time when we hear about faith or speak about it, it is in context of something that we need to have or do or are lacking. Isnt it liberating then, to read that it is offered to us as a by-product of the ...2 weeks ago -
