    A camping trip opens up to me the powerful insight of the opening words of John.

    A Walk in the Dark John 1:1-9 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines ...read more

    Because of lack of personal knowledge and relationship with the Savior, many people celebrate Christmas without Jesus being the center. It’s logical to look at the Savior closer this christmas.

But sadly speaking, the real meaning or spirit of Christmas is not seen in the celebration. Christmas must be a commemoration of the Savior’s Birth, but what is happening is ...read more
