    I got my first cup of coffee and slowly moseyed to my front porch. Walking to the banister putting my elbows there I sipped my coffee.

    Several years ago driving through the Ocala National Forest at night, I spotted a large brown object lying in the middle of the road.

    Paul called the False Teachers "hypocritical liars whose consciences have been seared." In other words, they convinced themselves that they are above any outside standard.

    Third and Fourth graders in a Christian school were asked to complete this sentence: “By faith I know that God is…” 1.

    The U.S. standard railroad gauge—the width between the rails—is 4 feet, 8 ½ inches. Strange number, isn’t it? You’d think something so crucial would be more logical. So why that width?
