Her Children Rise Up and Call Her Blessed

Filed under Around the Web
In the Bible’s description of the ideal woman it says, “Her children rise up and call her blessed.” From personal experience I know that children may not call their mother blessed while they are children. A memory that I’m not proud of is the day that I told my mother I hated her. I remember [...]

If I were asked to sum up advice to new parents in three words or less, I would say, “Savor the moment.” Remember not to take for granted the joy of cradling that little baby in your arms – even if it’s the middle of the night! Take delight in those first toddling steps. Give [...]

I know there are many people who say Christian rap music is just not as good as some of the secular music that swarm our radio waves. The Eminem’s and Jay-Z’s of the world seem to be able to draw listeners in even when their music is junk. This is mainly due to the amount [...]

Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist, made a fortune through the invention of dynamite. But his life was changed by a journalist’s mistake.

God Is Always There For Us

Filed under Fan Mail
When I first heard Lecrae’s song Go Hard I felt more than major conviction. I felt fear. Am I really spreading the gospel, have I become ashamed of the very words that lead me to God? Have I been forsaking my savior? Am I not a Christian anymore? I went through a phase where I [...]

Those who study the history of language tell us that it is only in comparatively recent times that the word “priority” has been used in the plural. Centuries ago it only appeared in the singular – priority, never [...]

Sooner or later they wear off and must be repeated or the patient suffers again or even dies. But what if we could take a pill that would last forever? That’s what the [...]

Technicalities

Filed under Around the Web
We get angry when we read in the newspaper about criminals getting off on some legal technicality. Perhaps the evidence wasn’t gathered correctly or some fine point of the law wasn’t met and the criminal was released. Not because he was innocent, but because of a technicality. Sometimes we fear that we may approach God [...]

If I’m suffering from chronic pain and go to a physician for help, I expect him to know what he’s talking about – to be able to explain what’s happening in my body. His knowledge gives me confidence that he’ll select the appropriate treatment. But if the doctor goes on to say, “I’ve had that [...]
