Thoughts On Public Schooling: Should Christians Homeschool Their Children?

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 30, 2021

Many an average American boy or girl will be raised up in the school rooms of public education. I would like to share some thoughts from great minds on education itself, public education, and wisdom. I'd also like to share my personal experiences in the public education system.

“The function of education, therefore, is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. But education which stops with efficiency may prove the greatest menace to society. The most dangerous criminal may be the man gifted with reason, but with no morals.” ? Martin Luther King Jr. Many ...read more

Angry Saints Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 31, 2021

James does not say we are to eliminate anger. He says we are to be slow to anger. James is too realistic and practical to think that the saints will never feel angry.

Near the end of the last century a group of minors in a mid-Western state became angry. They expressed that anger by igniting a carload of coal and pushing it down the mine shaft. Like most who act in anger, they could not foresee the long range consequences of their action. When the burning coal ...read more

Ruth's Romance Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 4, 2021

The entire book of Ruth revolves around the romance of ordinary people. That is one of its purposes for being a part of the Bible. It is God's stamp of approval on the ordinary person as an instrument of His plan of history.

Nowhere does history repeat itself more often than in the realm of romance. James Madison was the forth president of the United States, and he was the chief framer of the Constitution. He was the greatest scholar among the Founding Fathers. But when it came to romance he was no big gun. In fact, ...read more

Conducting Healthy Relationships

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 22, 2018

Maybe they call it a relationship because it can seem like we're on a ship. Sometimes the seas are nice and calm and sometimes they are stormy. And sometimes it can go from calm to stormy in a matter of moments. We need to learn how to navigate.
