  • GRAVITY

    I looked over the crowd of students as I climbed to the top of a workman’s ladder. The young men and women watched with curiosity, wondering why I might have been scaling such an object during our church meeting. I asked one simple question, “What would happen if I chose to step off the side…

  • half empty

    You have heard the phrase that has become a cliché within modern society. We have the choice to either see the glass as half-empty or half-full. Not long ago, I was sitting at my desk working and I became thirsty. I opened my refrigerator, removed the two-liter bottle of Sun Drop, and poured myself a…

  • Another Semester

      Yet another semester at Oklahoma Baptist University is underway. It seems that we, as students, repeat the same process when new classes begin. We fight so that we will not grow disheartened at the monotony that we find in our daily readings and research papers. There are times within that fight when we determine…

  • The Monroes: Encouter with the Paranormal

    Billy Monroe was raised in a family that did not believe in participating in any type of organized religious pursuit. Knowing this, Billy was free to dabble in what some might call the occult. He was first drawn to the strangeness of the paranormal when he realized that his sister, Sophie Monroe, experienced an odd…

  • Before the War

    I remember. I remember what it was like before the W.I.H. You know, the War In Heaven. I still don’t understand what thought Lucifer could have possibly had that would have instigated his decision. I distinctly remember learning from Lucifer as he trained me for combat. “Michael.

  • Tis the Night before Christmas

    Tis the night before Christmas, and I think to myself While Joseph and Mary half settled and well Looked up to the sky, the Son  soon to be born This Son the whole Earth one day will adorn Magi in the East, gazed at the stars One more night until they would travel afar Shepherds…

  • Worship

    What makes a man real? Is it his fame? Is it his fortune? Is it his honor, strength or praise? What is the motive behind each of these acts? By considering the motive, a true man will be revealed. In Romans, Chapter 2 starting in verse 28, Paul describes what makes a true Jew. He…

  • Worry

      Within my college career thus far, I have learned that staying financially sound is very important. I have also learned that it is very hard. Tuition continues to rise, and gas has never been cheap. We also have to find some way to feed ourselves. Some of us pay our own phone bills. This…

  • This is War!

    Lord, I hate what I do! What I do I do not want to do. What I want to do I do not do. How can I claim to be your child when this great sin continues to reign in my life? Please do not allow me to slip out of your hand. I need…
