Left or right, red or blue, liberal or conservative, fiscal accountability or social policies, Republican or Democrat? Every four years, as the strength of summer draws to a close and autumn puts on its glorious display,…
Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. (Galatians 5:1) There is much ado in our land about freedom. It has been a central and…
“I will not fight; I am a Christian”. We live in a world geared towards personal gain and satisfaction. Building a nice life for yourself is the American dream, and anyone who wants it can have it. Jesus says that where…
We are living in a time of moral and political upheaval. While we know God is in control, it can be discouraging. We see Congress passing laws that conflict with Biblical truth and ungodly leaders being voted into…
“I want your phone!” The little girl said firmly to her mother. “Not now, Josie,” her mother said. “We’re at the doctor’s office.” “I NEED your phone!” The three-year-old girl demanded. I wasn’t sure what Josie needed…
We discussed God’s Plan for Male and Female in the last issue. Today’s topic, Satan’s Snares for Male and Female, is not as enjoyable. And yet, to complete this series, “A Christ-centered Courtship,” we need to deal with…
We live in an era where the drumbeats of patriotism are beating louder and louder. Prominent Christian leaders are demanding their constitutional rights. The lines between the church and the state are slowly being…
The title could give the impression that a Christian could be different in an election year than in off-election years. That is not the intent. Instead, in the time of national elections, Christians face extra pressure…
Once again we will be taking a look at the history behind one of our beloved hymns. These hymns of old have stood the test of time and are worth singing, and may they continue to be sung till time is no more! Out of the…
I can still smell the tantalizing cacophony of odors as I clutched my father’s strong hand, weaving our way through the masses of tourists that crowded the building. The vendors at the Green Dragon Farmer’s Market in…
Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe in the supernatural? What about divine intervention? Or a better question might be, have you seen God working in your life? Do others see God working in your life? My brother…
Our Father’s world is a world unspoiled by human invention and intervention. While sin and technology have warped and stolen many lovely things from the human race, there abide still a few that remain unmarred by…
A Christ-centered Courtship is a series of messages on godly courtship preached by Paul Hershberger. He preached these messages several times at different locations over the last ten years. Recently, we had them…
“Dr. Waldron, Elsie needs help!” Elsie’s husband was adamant, almost angry, as he stared at me. On the other hand, Elsie stared at the floor, almost as though she wasn’t present. I had never met either of the couple…
The urgency of the last minute is something that many homemakers deal with regularly. No matter how organized we are, sometimes we put off tasks because we dislike them or wait until we are under pressure. Habitual…
Circumstantial overload might be the most difficult. We can choose not to go to a Norwex party if we need to give our schedule some space. But if a child breaks a leg in the middle of wedding preparations, we have no…
How unbelievable it is that God can take a wretched sinner, void of the fear of the Lord, and turn him into a blood-washed saint and preacher of the gospel! In this story, we see God’s life-changing power at work in our…
Spring is my favorite time of the year. Everything is new. Hyacinths are trying their noble best to poke their buds through the cold constraint of the winter-bound earth. Migrating waterfowl bring new sounds as they honk…
