    I was traveling with another preacher to a meeting. Our group met in a restaurant in a large mall in Chicago. After the meeting, we left the mall and could not locate our car. We split up and searched the lot row by row. No car. We decided to call the police and report the car stolen. "First," I ...read more

    WHY SHOULD I FORGIVE? During a children’s sermon one Sunday morning, I held up an ugly-looking summer shirt that I wore occasionally around the house. I explained to the children that someone said the shirt was ugly and should be thrown away. "This really hurt me," I explained. "I’m having ...read more

    Am I True to Myself? by Edgar Guest I have to live with myself, and so I want to be fit for myself to know I want to be able, as days go by, Always to look myself straight in the eye; I don’t want to stand, with the setting sun, And hate myself for things I have done.

    I WANT TO RULE THE WORLD Madonna has a little confession to make: She wants to rule the world. The singer reveals this perhaps unsurprising tidbit in “Nobody Knows Me,” a 52-page collection of photos and quotes from the ambitious blonde. “Every time I reach a new peak, I see a new one I want to ...read more

    This is not an original with me. I heard it in a sermon over twenty years ago given by Bro. Paul Holderfield. Johnny was not a very popular boy at school, in fact you might say he wasn’t liked at all. It was not anything in particular, well you know the type (maybe even been one of these ...read more

    I DECLARE YOU THE WINNER I was watching some little kids play soccer. These kids were only five or six years old, but they were playing a real game- a serious game- two teams, complete with coaches, uniforms, and parents. I didn’t know any of them, so I was able to enjoy the game without the ...read more

    As I mentioned at the outset, “Pride is a killer.” One man in history learned that lesson the hard way.

At one point he came to a parapet, over which he gazed out in the direction of the ...read more

    I AM REALLY CONTENT... I am really content — until I start looking through the Sears catalogue. I liked my car — until I saw the new P T Cruiser.

    When I was in business it was the accepted practice, for employees to have an annual appraisal. It can be painful, but let’s face it, no-one like to be told that they’re less than perfect! I think believers in Jesus need it more often than once a year, even if it’s only a self-appraisal. In ...read more

Perhaps that’s ...read more
