Consider the Vietnam Wall. When people visit the wall, they remember the events that took place when we were fighting in Vietnam. Even those who weren’t alive at the time are moved as they see name after name of individual soldiers who laid down their lives fighting for our nation. That wall serves

Some people are only interested in Jesus' function as a sin-sacrifice, but do not want a relationship with Him. They will be disappointed when Jesus says, "Depart from me, I never knew you."
In 2005, I had the opportunity to open the Indiana State Senate in prayer. As I prepared my prayer, I

I always tell couples that I marry about the 50/50 principle of marriage. True or false. Marriage is a 50/50 proposition. Each partner brings their half to make a whole. It’s false of course. It is 100/100. In relationships, two halves don’t make a whole. We joke about our better half. But in

Delayed gratification is also important in training children. A lot of parents are unwilling to make sacrifices that are necessary in order to meet their children’s deepest needs. A promotion at work, a TV show, or a nap on the sofa may all seem much more enticing

Mother’s Love
A Mother’s love is something that no one can explain,
It is made of deep devotion and of sacrifice and pain,
It is endless and unselfish and enduring come what may
For nothing can destroy it or take that love away...

And it

How did Titus do in Crete?
Titus led the church in Crete until 105 AD, when he died at age 94. The church in Crete experienced many internal and external stresses, much of it due to the friction of the island. These tensions, however, did not impact the religious strength or stamina of the church

The opposite of faith is mistrust and disbelief. In its more extreme form it is paranoia in which a deep and overwhelming fear is present.
