“I am the greatest” I like boxing. Not the biggest fan, but I enjoy it. I just read this past week that Jermain Taylor is going back to his original trainer, the one he became champion under. We should be proud of him as Arkansans, from what I hear he is an outstanding young man, not your

There was a Seinfeld episode where Kramer scoots into Jerry’s apartment where Jerry and George are talking, and he says "Do you guys want to have some fun!" George and Jerry say "Sure." And then Kramer says "Do you really want to have some fun? Or are you just saying you want to

As I prepared for my sunday sermon and I struggled with my own hardships and how to describe the security that we have in Christ, I began to observe the spider. Every week I would faithfully rid the house of cobwebs. And every week I would find more. And I felt in my heart that as Christains we

"Just about the time I

DAD, ARE YOU GOD?
One day after church, the pastor asked his little boy what he learned in Sunday school. The lad said, "I learned that God loves me more than anything else in the whole world."
"What else did you learn?" asked his dad. "I learned that when I’m bad, He spanks real hard."

WILL YOU PRAY FOR THE TALIBAN?

When I was in college in Watertown, I worked at Bethesda Lutheran Home, a home for the ‘developmentally disabled.’ I worked the night shift and went to school during the day. One winter morning when I got off from work, I hopped in the car, turned the key and… click… nothing. It wouldn’t turn over

I think of the privilege I had of having God hear me. It was when I was living in South Africa and I was seeking God’s will as to my future. At the time I was a research forester. I was coming to the end of my government contract and I had been asked to become a permanent employee but I was
