It’s Not in Man to Direct His Steps
Before I begin, I want to warn of the graphic nature of the material that will be discussed. I was disgusted by a report I found recently. While watching a political show on the Internet, the cast began a segment detailing five ways a certain group of people pushes sex upon children. As the video […]
Do You Pray During the Worship Services?
The worshipper who would pray in the assembly must do more than bow his head and close his eyes. He must pray. “Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say ‘Amen’ at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?” (I […]
Reflecting on Thanksgiving
For the last 155 years, Thanksgiving has been a federal holiday. It was in 1863 that President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the fourth Thursday in November to be a national day of “Thanksgiving and Praise to our beneficent Father who dwelleth in the Heavens.” That being said, do we really focus on giving thanks for the […]
Two Noteworthy Events
In 2018, Victoria Beckham, aka Posh Spice from the Spice Girls, revealed that she has no intention of allowing her daughter Harper to wear her risqué outfits that were so prominent in their act. “I was amazed by how naked the costumes were, I have to say,” she said in an interview. “I used to […]
The Stubborn Heart

The Golden Text of the Bible

Understanding Prayer
A few months ago, I entered a local book store. While looking around, I found a book published by Harvest House Publishers entitled One Minute Prayers for Men. This book carried multiple prayers for many topics ranging from giving to communication to helping others. It really is a good resource, however, is a reference like […]
Bert and Ernie Are Gay
I watched “Sesame Street” as a kid, and I can remember for a long time the speculation surrounding whether or not the characters Bert and Ernie were more than just roommates and best friends.
