I think it’s hard to imagine what it’s like to be the winning quarterback in the Super Bowl. Few of us have ever been at the absolute peak of our profession on a stage where millions of people know your name and columnists write thousands of words about your abilities. I get completely wound up [...]

I made an interesting observation over the last week. I watched two different basketball games with my favorite team. In the first game, my guys couldn’t put the other team away and it went to double overtime. The star on my team had his biggest game of his young career by putting up 38 points, [...]

It is yet another one of God’s paradoxes that those who try to lead will struggle and those who simply follow God are natural leaders. It’s when you stop doing things on your own strength with your own rationalization and trust in God’s strength and His leadership that others will follow.
I watch the news lately [...]

I saw a story on the news the other night about a middle-aged man who was sledding with his family in his own neighborhood. He took a run down the hill and ended up crossing the street at the same time an SUV was driving through. It killed him. Now, does this tragedy prove that [...]

You’ve done it. I’ve done it. It’s human nature. We’ve all played the game where we try to be more clever than our own brain. We figure if we can come up with a plausible, innocent explanation for what we’re about to do, then it’s okay. After a while, it’s not even a matter of [...]

Around this time of year, all of the semi-educational cable channels dig all of their Bible-related shows out of the vaults and fill the hours with them. There’s all kinds of shows that claim to research the validity of Jesus, the Resurrection, the stories of Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and the rest. I’m always amazed [...]

We’re experiencing an impressive cold snap as I write this. They say it will be the coldest sustained temperatures in our area in almost twenty years. Given a choice, I prefer to battle cold rather than heat, but it’s still darn cold outside. Considering weather extremes reminds me of two things:
First, I’m reminded that the [...]

A few years ago, I sat across the table from one of my co-workers when he said to me, “I just can’t believe that the Bible can be accurate today after so many years.” He felt that believing the Bible is both true and still the same words written in the first century took a [...]

Ah, the cold wind is in the air, the lights are in the trees, and the ornaments are hung with care. It’s that time of year again. It’s that time when it seems that everyone’s tempers get very short. I realize that there’s stress involved with Christmas shopping, driving, parking, and whatnot, but it always [...]

I’ve been watching more basketball this winter than I normally do. That’s mostly because my favorite team is playing much better this year. They are a young team with a good coach that has quite a bit of potential. However, from time to time, they fall victim to their youth and lack of experience. They [...]
