    God is the ultimate lifeguard because he saves us from eternal death and he is always on duty.

    The series “Baywatch” has ended after almost a decade of being on television. How many here are familiar with the show “Baywatch”? Supposedly it was about the lives of life guards on the beaches of California (but in all reality it was more about scantily clad men and women running on the beach). ...read more

    Compares Elijah’s time at the Brook Cherith with military boot camp and how God prepares us for service.

    When you say the word boot camp, the civilian and enlisted, retired and reserved all conjure up pictures of freshly shaved heads, dog tags, fatigues and, as Chuck Swindoll says, fatigue. It is through the doors of boot camp that an 18-year old from Kiowa, Kansas is shaped into a soldier by doing ...read more
