    God planted a Christmas tree in Bethlehem. But it was a differnent kind of tree than the one folks often decorate and place in their homes for Christmas.

    Back in 2008 an Englishman named Greig Howe bought a 35-foot tall Christmas tree for his house. Now that’s a pretty big tree. And you’d expect that Mr. Howe must then have a fairly large house. But he didn’t. His was a two story dwelling that was only 30 feet tall. So, did he just put the tree ...read more

    It’s an odd phenomena: people stealing the baby Jesus from Nativity scenes. It’s called the "Stolen Baby Jesus Syndrome." Why would people do that, and what does it tell us about mankind and God?

    OPEN: A few years back, Wellington, FL had their baby Jesus stolen two years running. This was a wealthy community and their Jesus was worth around $1800. The third time around they put a GPS inside and traced the thief to her home. But the baby Jesus doesn’t have to be expensive. In 2008, in ...read more

    based on 68 ratings
     | 36,409 views

    God doesn’t want us to know WHEN we’re going to die, but He stresses the fact that one day we shall (if Jesus doesn’t return first). Why does God want us to face the reality of our own mortality? Why stress that we will all die?

    OPEN: A woman once told of driving with her two young boys to a funeral. She said: “I tried to prepare them by talking about burial and what we believe happens after death.

    When the master gave money to his servants, he expected them to invest what he’d given so that he’d have a return on his investment when he returned. Do we think of our tithe as an "investment opportunity" or simply as a chore to be fulfilled?

    Paul tells me that God’s people "eagerly await" Christ’s return. But why? Why should we be excited and what is it that will make this such a wonderful event for us?

    OPEN: People’s minds have been focused on the end of the world of late. A few years ago I began to hear predictions the world would end in 2012 (next year) - a speculation based upon an oddity in an ancient Mayan Calendar. This created quite a stir because the Mayan calendar was an extremely ...read more

    "Green Eggs and Ham" may be a Children’s book, but it’s main character has a lot to say about effective witnessing for Christ.

    OPEN: Dr. Seuss’ Green Eggs and Ham is a long repetitious children’s poem that ends this way: For about the 20th time Sam-I-Am asks: “You do not like green eggs and ham?” To which his friend replies: “I do not like them, Sam-I-am.” Sam-I-am: “Could you, would you, with a goat?" Friend: “I ...read more

    One prominent religious website said the doctrine of Justification was "controversial". Really? Why would that be?

    The early church "gathered together to break bread." Why was this activity so critical to them and what can it mean to us?

    OPEN: There’s an old saying: “An army marches on… (its stomach).” What that means is: if an army doesn’t feed its men it’s not going anywhere. Without food the troops eventually can’t march, they can’t maneuver, and they can’t fight. So one of the logistical problems for armies has always been - ...read more
