THE END TIMES People have written so much about the end time, Christians and unbelievers alike have had dreams and visions about ...read more

    There is nothing so fulfilling as good timing, nothing so embarassing as bad timing. Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem was wonderful for some, judgment time for others. What time is it for us? (MLK assassination anniversary)

    There is nothing quite so fulfilling as good timing. And nothing quite so embarrassing as bad timing. They say that the secret in being a comedian is good timing. Well, the secret in living is good timing. Quite a few years ago, a young lady in whom I was more than slightly interested had to be ...read more

    Me time is a precious commodity isn’t it? Some folks get a lot of me time all day long but are unwilling to do anything extra for anyone else, while others get very little and always make time to squeeze in one more thing someone asked them to do, into their busy day!
