Love is Freedom!

God is love and yet we see pain and suffereing, evil and sin all around us. How does that work? While I believe there is no way to intellectually work out the realities of evil in the world, I can get there by faith. No argument can prove that God is love, but a life lived by and through Him can. Continue reading ‘Love is Freedom!’

Missed Kingdom Opportunities

We live in the land of the wealthy! America is a blessed nation- beyond understanding.

He Came To Save The World!

It must be something that is in the water! Ronald Reagan, Pat Robertson, Caspar Weinberger, the late Jerry Falwell, and all those millions who bought the Left Behind series believe the end is coming soon. Of course many on the far right wing of the religious political spectrum have been bleating the RAPTURE for centuries! Alas, we’re still here!
