• How the Bible Influenced Star Wars

    Since today is Palm Sunday and we are entering into Passion Week leading up to Good Friday and Easter, I wanted to share a small snippet of that story, which may have influenced Star Wars. But even if you don’t care about Star Wars, it’s still a really cool story that shows God’s power. The…

  • In Case You Were Born Yesterday

    As I sit here drinking Yogi green tea I can’t help but think of all the people who don’t know anything yet. These are the people who were born yesterday, the ones who still haven’t heard about Reddit or still believe in Santa Claus. This isn’t a completely exhaustive list, but it’s the stuff that…

  • Icy Sky – a Short, Cold Story

    The temperature dropped so fast my ears popped. I first felt the cold in my groin as my gonads retreated up into my body. I too would have to find shelter and fast. I looked around, but all I could see were sticks and trees. There was no cover, no bushes, no overpass, no cave.…

  • Good Guy Greg

    “It is entirely inconceivable to the world that Steve Jobs would have been given a resurrection body that is imperishable only for the purpose of being able to endure God’s wrath into eternity future. We Christians do a great unloving disservice to the world when we don’t affirm the theology of hell – the gospel…

  • The End of the World

    As the lighting strikes and the thunder rolls this cold, wet, December morning the darkened skies are continually ripped open and slammed shut in eerie foreboding of today’s show. There will be dandelions blooming underfoot as helio-magnetic superstorms bloom above our heads. As the ground begins to shake, hold firm to your beliefs. The time…

  • Choose Your Time

    I wrote this in one of my notebooks back in 2008 and recently re-discovered it while doing some housekeeping. Apparently one or more of my children had taken it to draw in, but after reading what I wrote I thought I’d share. Ironically, words are the most powerful weapons or tools that we have, yet…

  • The Way

    In the midst of a storm its hard to see how you’ll ever get out of it. There are times when it seems like all is lost and you may want to give up. Sometimes all is lost and you don’t get out and there is no one left to tell your story. How vain…

  • Why the World Needs Jesus

    Who is Jesus? What does it mean to be saved? Are we still in need of a savior? Can Jesus hear our prayers? Do you have faith? Do you believe? Who is God? Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? Why do bad things happen to people who love God? What is…

  • Rise Up to a Beautiful Day

    The last dream I had before waking up involved an elderly class alumni group getting up and singing a praise and worship song together as a presentation. One of the members was playing piano and leading the song. It was a traditional song that (in the dream) I recognized as being a traditional hymn that…
