A Day of Remembrance 
Memorial Day, once called Decoration Day, honors those who have died in our nation’s service. From the beginning of history, God has established memorials to help us not to forget our history. Remembering the past is essential to living well in the present, no matter what new age gurus say.
Creation is the Foundation - Genesis 1 
What is your worldview built upon? Choose God's Truth over man's changing opinions for a firm foundation.
Dragons, Dinosaurs, and Even Unicorns
How come the Bible never mentions dinosaurs? And where do we Christians make them fit in the story anyway? I hope you’re already reeling off the answers in your head by now, but a recent conversation has reminded me that many Christians are confused about dragons, dinosaurs, and unicorns.
Gomer of the Bible
God put his prophet to the test to show us how He loves us.
How are Protestant and Catholic Bibles Different?
Genesis to Revelation. The Protestant Bible and the Catholic Bible begin and end the same way. But in between there are significant differences. Describing the variances for you, however, turned out to be not nearly as simple as I thought it would be!
Invisible Badges 
I recently read of a Christian doctor working in Uganda, struggling against multiple obstacles to give good medical care to her patients. Her life is visibly dedicated to God’s service all day, every day. Her daily work is a badge that says “I’m living my life for God.”
Jesus Revealed
Skin can be deceiving. In the movies, sometimes a guy who seems like just a murderous jerk is really a murderous giant insectoid alien under his stolen skin. Skin on real humans can mislead, too, generating expectations about the person wearing it. And then there is Jesus' skin, cloaking His glory.
Jesus' Choice
Christians in various dark corners of the world are cruelly tortured and persecuted. How can they endure it? Why do they endure it? It is for love. It always comes back to love.
Life Eternal 
Christianity promises eternal life. What does that mean?
Looking into God's Eyes
If I want to teach you how to get from Seattle to Syracuse, I will get out a map and ask you to watch the map as I show you the best route. If you’re showing someone the way across town, you point out landmarks and where to turn, and they look where you’re pointing. God does things differently.
Moses - Senior Citizen Extraordinaire
Sometimes I get a little panicky. There are so many things I still want to do, and my life is at least half over. Am I wasting time? Does it matter what I do and don’t do? Who will care, anyway? Maybe I’m a late bloomer, like Moses. He didn't really get going until he was eighty.
No Cake-Mix Religion for Me
I read that when cake mixes were first developed, all the ingredients needed were in the mix. All you had to do was add water and stir. But women didn’t like that, feeling it didn't count as cooking. We want so much to add ingredients to our salvation, but Jesus has provided everything necessary.
Tent, Yurt, or Mansion?
I slept in a yurt last night. Not a portable yurt of felt like the Mongols carried across the steppes, but a tarp and wood structure with windows, electric outlets and a porch. Not so portable. I'm afraid I treat my earthly "tent" the same way, like a permanent home instead of a temporary shelter.
The Royal Family
The Saints. A Royal Priesthood. The Body of Christ. The Bride of Christ. The Sheep of His Hand. Christians as a group are called by many names in Scripture, and each is worthy of contemplation and study. My favorite names, though, are the ones describing us as part of God’s family.
