I had a guy tell me one time that my belief system was not rational. I suddenly realized that I often used the term “rational”, but I was smacked if I really knew what it meant. I felt a wave of uncertainty wash over my like my very underpinnings were being eroded. I began to [...]

If you think about it, truth is a narrow path. What I mean is that the trip to discovery starts out wide, but in the end the truth lands in one specific spot and, as we declare it, we can be accused of being narrow. I attribute this to feelings people have about the truth. [...]

It is easily argued that pride is the source of sin. A desire to be equal to God led to the Fall. A claim to be equal to Jesus leads to Hell. Stating that man is the highest form of intelligence brought about by no intelligence whatsoever is arrogant and has led to destructive philosophies. [...]

Success can be intoxicating. I believe I am witnessing such a thing in the current political battle. When a candidate begins to succeed beyond what the pundits originally thought, the candidate can being to believe his own propaganda. Pretty soon he’s not just thanking the crowd humbly for the support, he’s declaring that he has [...]

As I study Scripture and ponder what I read and look up, I’ll get, from time to time, a sudden burst of the obvious. I know that what I discover for myself would cause others to say, “Whoa, dude, where have you been?” But, we all have to get on down the road at our [...]

It is a reasonable argument that two basic tasks are in front of the new Christian. They are to, somehow, understand the Bible and to know God. I admit that, for many years, I separated the two. I was sure that to know God was to be some spiritually enlightened person that had attained a [...]

As I dive in further to apologetics studies, I see my greatest fear crystallizing. My fear is that, in a straight up debate about my faith, I could look like a fool. I fear that there are very smart people making very good arguments about why I’m wrong. I don’t doubt that what I believe [...]

Around and around we go and here we are again: Truth is relative to either time (What was true then is not true now), person (What is true to you is not for me), or location (it might be true in Japan, but not in New York). The reason that most people run to the [...]

Sometimes I find myself so immersed in trying to make a living that I get tunnel vision. I will be praying to God that He would show me His grace in my life. During this time I will attend services, study groups, and prayer groups. While listening to others pray for needs and giving praises [...]

I love my relationship with God. It’s had its ups and downs, but it’s all worth it for moments like I had the other morning. He revealed something to me and at that very moment I imagined Him giving me that sly look that says, “See what I mean?” I’ve been praying steadily for Him [...]
