It is not an exaggeration to say water is the stuff of life. Outside of air, it is the one thing we need to continually consume. We can deal with irregularly consuming food, but not water.

A Call to Discernment of the Possibility of God’s Imminent Judgement
by • • 0 Comments
Back on September 11, two friends of my sister (in Deland Florida) were praying before lunch and asking God what they should pray about, since it was the anniversary of the attacks on the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, when they were overwhelmed by the Holy Spirit. They received a message of God’s coming judgement…

The God with No Name

One of the objections that the early Hebrews faced (e.g., from the Egyptians) was that their God had no name. The ancient mind could not conceive of a nameless god.

One of the great fallacies of the non-believer is that they can put off their decision about God/Jesus/Salvation until the end. Even if the person is fortunate enough to have the time (no sudden death) to address the issue, it is VERY unlikely anything will change, since reversing direction goes against the weight of their entire life.
While it is true that there have been remarkable deathbed…

The Nature of Sloth
by • • 0 Comments
I was reading a review of Josef Pieper’s Faith, Hope, Love on Amazon when the commentor (Lawrence J. King) said something that struck a deep nerve and sent a shudder through my being (I am not joking). He said: I used to think of “slothful” as synonymous with “laziness” — but this book made me realize what…
