As a society, we love a good story. Writers can make millions of dollars crafting thrilling tales to keep us on the edge of our seat. The most common formula used is that of good versus evil.

Blasphemers and Naysayers

The world continues its toboggan slide into depravity, and, frankly, into the Great Tribulation. This is a stark reality, but one that we must realize and understand fully. We are living in the end times and the signs of this are becoming more evident and poignant with each passing day.
"A Game of Chance"

Millions of men and women spend untold hours in glitzy main halls of casinos, while many others play "friendly" games of "nickel" poker, gathered around octagon tables. Still others indulge in office sports pools, all the while hoping to cash in on the losses of others.
In Pastures Green

In this time when we are all being urged to "go green" in every part of our daily lives, we may lose sight of the word picture painted in Psalm 23, which is probably the most oft quoted Psalm in the Bible. I like the way it is expressed in the old English hymn by William Havergal, a well-known writer of hymns (1793–1870).
The quiet life

- Richard A. Wilson (guest columnist)
Almost any time of the day, you can open your front door and get slammed in the face with a noisy, busy world based on false values and false education. Bravely, we say we aren't really affected by what's going on in the world. We can even claim that "we aren't really part of what the world's about these days."
Being Major League

During September of 1993, all of the 1994 season, and in the first two months of the 1995 baseball season, I was a left-handed batting practice pitcher for the Iowa Cubs, the Triple A affiliate of National League Chicago Cubs, in Des Moines, Iowa. Before each home game, I would "pitch" one of the sessions to team players who would work on their hitting skills...
History, Science and Faith
- 26th August 2010
- Richard A. Wilson (guest columnist)
To prove that the Bible is the authoritative word of God, one must rely on a combination of secular history, scientific fact and one’s own faith that the Bible is the true word of a higher power—plus the belief that God’s power, the Holy Spirit, is working with those God has called to understand His plan for mankind!
Broken cisterns

“Going green” is all in vogue, as the need to conserve—and the practicality of recycling—becomes even more compelling in crippled economies around the world. Things that were once thoughtlessly discarded are now often repurposed or recycled. More energy-efficient methods of doing daily chores and routine tasks are being sought at every level. It just makes good...
Who are your teachers?

My family and I watch our share of nature documentaries, and we are always entertained by scenes of newborn animals—gazelles, giraffes, etc.—struggling, mere moments after birth, to walk. As they struggle on their wobbly legs, instinct pushes them to walk and run as soon as possible, lest they fall as quick prey to predators or become a burden on their herds.
What Do You See?

Sometimes, we can look at a thing and not truly “see” it for what it is, from every angle. Our approach to life with its joys, trials, and challenges often depends upon our perceptions of something—how we choose to see—in any given situation. An analogy that seems to fit this human proclivity is how one looks at a diamond, the rarest of precious stones.
