    UN-CHRISTLIKE CHRISTIANS A couple of months ago, there was a story on CNN of a Christian school basketball team that beat another team (another Christian school, I think) by the score of 100 to 0. It was a slaughter. The coach of the winning team, even though it was clear that the other team was ...read more

    I did a google image search for the “armour of God.” It’s extraordinary the number of diagrams and pictures devoted to this theme.

    Speaking of abuse… have you seen those energy drinks that are out there. This may not always hold true but it seems to me that these often are marketed to promote the potential abuse of caffeine. Caffeine isn’t that bad, you may say. It isn’t like a narcotic. But I wonder if we abuse something less ...read more

    HOW'S MY DRIVING? A lot of trucks have a sticker on the back that says, "How’s my driving? Call xxx-xxxx to report." This is supposed to make the driver accountable.

    LIMITS. Write that down. Who do we need to accurately assess ourselves? Someone else. Regular assessment is important because our limits regular vacillate. They change according to what is on our plate and our overall well-being. They depend on the season. There are times in our lives in which we ...read more

    A BONE OR A STEAK? Which is better, a bone or a steak? Think of it this way. It’s easy to give a dog a bone, but it’s almost impossible to take a bone away from a dog.
