based on 9 ratings

For Father’s Day: Fathers who say "yes" to everything provide a road map to disaster; who keep their children at arm’s length point to alienation; but who may also go home themselves to lead their children home. (Maps were displayed)

When I was in elementary school and the classroom got boring, like most kids, I would doodle. But while some kids ...read more

There is a time for everything under the sun, even war. When is the right time for war? What does God think about war? How should we fight a war? And how should a Christian respond?

Since September 11, 2001, America has been at war.
