    I’m a fan of the television show "24". It has more fast-moving action packed into an hour than any show I have ever seen. The lead character, special agent Jack Bauer, is on the run practically the entire show. He has no sooner solved one crisis than another rises. The title "24" is taken from ...read more

    With the advent of television’s Sex and the City, and a host of shows like it, it should be apparent that our nation is in a moral free fall.

    God wants to use your life. That’s why we want to discover our purpose. There are a lot of shallow secular books out there like the one I saw recently entitled Discovering Your Purpose. It is an attempt to ride on the coattails of the popularity of Rick Warren’s book The Purpose Driven Life. ...read more
