  1. 25th January 2023
  2. J. Davy Crockett III

We seem to make too few friends as we go through life. The friends you have in childhood and in high school are often just a memory, as life and the demands of making a living unfold and the years roll by.

  2. J. Davy Crockett III

Children are without guile, and they will often tell you very revealing things. A grandfather once told me about an experience with his ten-year-old grandson.

  2. Roger Meyer

Have you heard the saying, “Confession is good for the soul”? This exact statement is not in the Bible, but the principle of confessing our sins is. What and to whom do we confess, and why?

The Betrayal of Innocence

  1. 04th January 2023
  2. J. Davy Crockett III

There is a malevolent spirit that is responsible for the cascade of evil in neighborhoods and nations—and it is always recruiting. Any doubt of this fact was shattered recently when an evening news report showed men dressed as women in bizarre, clown-like costumes, cavorting in front of young children at a school function with many parents present. These deviant...

The Two Faces of New Year’s Celebrations

  1. 31st December 2022
  2. Gary F. Ehman (1937–2021)

The winter tide festivities continue on, with people moving almost mindlessly through them—looking neither left nor right, only onward to the end, full of parties, food, drink, and maxed-out credit cards.

But consider for a moment: Do you worship the true God of all creation or an idol? That question might be harder to answer than you think. “Idols?” you may ask. “I have no idols! I would never worship a physical object as a god!” you may declare...
