  • Is Jesus the Messiah? ( John 1:38-51)

                In 2013, there was an event held in which two atheist scholars posited that Jesus of Nazareth did not exist within history and that the entire Christian religion was a ruse designed by the Roman government in order to control the Jewish people. While this is a stretch concerning what we know of the…

  • Take comfort. This too shall pass: the life of water

    As I rested, I felt myself getting heavier and heavier. This was quite an odd sensation. It was odd because I had not eaten. The extra weight was unwanted and I could feel myself beginning to sink into my resting place. There was a certain darkness in the air and as time moved forward, and…

  • Are Actions Really That Important? (3 John 11)

                Who are we? This question rings out from the whole of humanity as each man and woman works to discover his or her identity in a chaotic world. When we are children, we are carefree and trusting and we seem to encounter none of life’s crises. When we are older, many of us look…

  • Contemplating the Cosmos: Between Heaven and Hell

    The other day as I took the dog out I saw what we refer to as a “shooting star”. I hurried the dog along and quickly brought my wife outside so that she could witness it. It was small, meaning is was further away than we usually hope a comet or asteroid would be, but…

  • MLK Jr.

    What the nation describes as progress perturbs me. I do not speak often on the ethnic issues of our day, but today is a very important day. It is a day on which we celebrate the life and work of a man who was dedicated to justice for all men and who himself held the…

  • You Are Worth More Than You Know (Romans 8:29-30)

                I want to describe for you a struggle that I have in life. I know that I do not deserve the things that I have been given and I know that I am not worth much in the grand scheme of things. When I look in the mirror, I see a human being; one…

  • Christian, is your world too dark? (Matthew 5:13-16)

                Consider, briefly, the purpose of the pen. It is used to record and that is its purpose. Just as the pen was designed with a purpose, so also you and I were designed with a purpose, and we belong to a community that was called to a specific purpose. A pen is at its…

  • Smith: Prophet of Relativism

                The bright young man approached the small brick house that he had inherited. “I do not like this building,” the man said, “but neither do I wish to sell it.” Firstly, the young man examined the cornerstone, which did so bear the name “Jesus Christ”. Then, he began to examine each brick that did…

  • Contemplating the Cosmos: Standing on the Shoreline

                I stand outside and look at the stars with wonder, noting the great complexity of systems and the great emptiness within the cosmos that I have read about. To think that I look with wonder at the same universe that is observed by great thinkers like the late Carl Sagan and Stephen Hawking. Yet…
