You might wonder why I believe in heaven in an age like this. One of the Russian cosmonauts came back and said, "Some people say God lives out there. I looked around, and I didn’t see any God out there." Billy Graham’s wife, Ruth, says he looked in the wrong place. If he’d stepped

Little babies, whose concepts of reality are still being formed, lack the ability to realize that when their father is out of their sight that they still exist. A father can spend hours with her infant, put it down in the crib, walk away – and it is as if the father didn’t even exist anymore to

One of the places I drop by on a regular base for a coffee break is our local Tim Hortons. Dave is the manager – and he does a good job of keeping the place in tip top shape. But you know something, I never see his employees cleaning the windows. Instead, he hires an outside firm to clean the

Rabbi David A. Nelson likes to tell the story of two brothers who went to their rabbi to settle a longstanding feud. The rabbi got the two to reconcile their differences and shake hands. As they were about to leave, he asked each one to make a wish for the other in honor of the Jewish New Year. The

PALM SUNDAY CHANT
We’re going to sing a rap-song together now. What I need you to do is to chant each line after me, and to cheer madly when I lift my arms into the air:
Ho-sann-a; Ho-sann-a;
Hear the people cheer (arms in the air)
Riding on a donkey
See the King appear (arms in the

CHRIST HAS RISEN--YOU BETTER, TOO!
I heard about a church organist who overslept one Easter morning. She said, "The service was scheduled for 6:30. At 6:31, the minister called to see if I was coming. Since I live near the church, I was at the organ by 6:45. Then, a year later on Easter morning

"When we sin, we are judged because in that moment of choosing sin we are actually electing the absence of God in our lives at that point. You see, [sin and salvation are] always relational. Sin separates us from God--that’s the point--sin is our embrace of the absence of God in our

ARMY OF THE LORD
A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands. He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside.

My friend replied, "I'm

Always when needs were pressing, Mr. Mueller would call the staff together for prayer. And often, when getting off their knees, they would see dray wagons [drawn carts] backing up to the kitchen door, loaded with buns, bread, apples, cakes, potatoes, boxes of soap, sacks of peas, haunches [sides]

Winners or Losers?
Let's go just a few years forward from Calvary. Another man in the prime of his youth, arrested for heresy by the Jews, a witness to Jesus, Stephen, the first deacon, was dragged out of the gates of Jerusalem and stoned, even as he forgave his murderers. The persecution that

‘THE PROPHETIC PERSPECTIVE’
When the prophets were speaking of what would happen as a result of what was taking place in Judah the message was very specific. But when they looked out into the future the great events foretold were compressed in a brief space of time. This is called ‘the prophetic
