  • The Pilgrim’s Relevancy: Book I

    Tonight, my heart is so grieved by the death of our Egyptian brothers. I cannot sleep and I cannot help but question the relevancy of the Christian faith. In the times preceding our own we have seen the rise and fall of cultures, religions and entire ways of life. Throughout all of these ages of…

  • Is There Joy? (John 16:16-24)

                Joy is evasive, even for the believer. In a contemporary culture, amidst the skepticism and the violence and the critical nature of the human individual, joy is scarcely attainable. We live in a society that is riddled with depression and anger and discontent, yet we long for joy. In scripture, we are told that…

  • Are You Angry With Our Leaders? Have You Lost Faith in God?

    I want to share with you all from my time with God this morning. I read in Exodus where Moses lead the people out of Egypt, across the sea and struck the rock at Horeb so that the people could have water. Here were some of my thoughts: In the wilderness, the Desert of Sin,…

  • A Life Wasted

                In 1995, a young man named Iqbal Masih received a gunshot wound to the head and died. “Iqbal was a forced child labourer in Pakistan. He was able to escape and began campaigning against child labour and for the right for children to receive education. After escaping a second time, he joined [the] Bonded…

  • 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…

  • Contemplating the Cosmos: The Martian Inquisition

    “Why so many eager speculation and ardent fantasies about Martians, rather than, say, Saturnians or Plutonians? Because Mars seems, at first glance, very Earth-like. It is the nearest planet whose surface we can see. There are polar ice caps, drifting white clouds, raging dust storms, seasonally changing patterns on its red surface, even a twenty-four-hour…

  • 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…
