Two men were arguing at work one day about religion. Neither really knew what they were talking about. Finally one said, “Man, you don’t know anything about religion. I’ll bet you ten dollars you can’t even repeat the Lord’s Prayer.” The other grinned. “Oh yeah? It’s a bet!” He straightened up and ...read more

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 26, 2025

Where Are The Dinosaurs? Series

Contributed by Tim White on Jan 14, 2012

There are three ways for a Christian to accept the creation story in light of the archeological evidence stacked against us.

Question: I want to believe the Bible but with so much science out there concerning evolution/creation, the Bible has become suspect at best. What about dinosaurs, dating back millions of years ago if the Bible says the earth is only about 6-8 thousand years old? For the Christian who hates being ...read more

The Lord Shows His Excellence In All The Earth

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Sep 12, 2021

God’s excellence shines so clearly in all his works. The Lord could have crushed those who bore his image when we sinned, yet God was mindful of us. The glorious God who first stooped down to create us, then stooped down to save us through his only Son.

As we lead busy lives each week, we need to slow down. In the middle of the activity of work and school and home life and church life, we need to pause and ponder. For how often do we really think about who God is, who we are, and what to do with the few days on earth that God has given? It’s easy ...read more
