    It's amazing how quickly we settle for less that what is promised and possible. So what do we do with Jesus' outlandish promises about power for living?

    Is Science in conflict with the claims of Christianity? How can someone hold to the truth of Science and the truth of Christianity at the same time?

    I read once of a man who was lost in the desert, just dying for a drink of water. He stumbled upon an old shack – a ramshackled, windowless, roofless, weather beaten old shack.
