As news of “Maggie” Thatcher’s death hit the headlines, tributes began pouring in from around the UK and right across the world—from friends and foes alike. For, like her or loathe her, you could never ignore her—her leadership, her iron will and indomitable spirit, her total conviction and self-belief, and the remarkable impact that she made on her country and...

  2. Charles Knowlton (1927-2013)

Several years ago, I had the honor of being a public school teacher in a major city. One year I was assigned to a new building under construction. When the time came for school to start, the building was not yet ready.

  2. William Williams

Have you heard of the “10 percent myth”—the idea that the average person uses just 10 percent of the brain? Many people today take this for granted. What you may not know is that—from the writings of a nineteenth-century psychologist and philosopher, to the set of the popular “Mythbusters” television show—this well-traveled idea is quite brainless on many levels...

Because He Is Risen, I Do Not Keep Easter

  1. 30th March 2013
  2. Wallace G. Smith

I believe in the risen Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior of mankind. I believe that after His crucifixion on Passover, He was three days and three nights in the heart of the earth—as He said He would be.

  2. Richard Franz

All husbands have a deep-seated desire for their wives to believe in them. Many husbands do what they do for the admiration of one woman: their wife. Ladies, remember back when you were first dating your husband? You gladly and enthusiastically played the role of his cheerleader; you motivated him with your eyes that were filled with pride and admiration. You...

  2. Charles Knowlton (1927-2013)

Many of us who lived through the 1950s and 1960s fondly recall The Andy Griffith Show. How we remember that Mayberry’s sheriff and his son did not have a care in the world when they went fishing! Thinking about them, I am impressed at how simple life should be and how extreme it has become. The recent explosion of technology and the growing political, social,...

Experience the Benefits of Traveling Abroad

  2. Justin D. Ridgeway

  2. Roger Meyer

When various diseases are going around, we sometimes worry about contracting colds, flus, or other different kinds of viruses and bacterial infections. But have you been “infected” with a false way of thinking? False ideas have consequences as severe, or even more so, than any disease.

St. Nicholas, St. Valentine, and St. Patrick are, for many, familiar figures throughout the well known "holidays" occurring from December to mid Spring. Who are these “saints,” anyway? We usually think of saints as being religious, and as such related somehow to the God of the Bible. But is that true? Do we really know where saints come from, or how they are...
