In the late 1960’s a Rock band by the name of Chicago had a hit song containing this line, “Does anybody really know what time it is? Does anybody really care about time?” For people in many countries in the world, today’s date, December 31, marks the end of a year. Midnight at the end […]

Two thousand years ago the world was very different than it is today. And yet, the heart conditions of that time can still be found in many these days.

“And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; You shall find the […]

The apostle John, in his account of the life of Jesus, made an interesting statement: “And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.” (John 21:25) So here […]

If you all can bear with me, I would like to share another aspect of my earlier personal experience with the Lord Jesus Christ. I do believe many will relate to what I am about to describe. My mother was deeply devoted to the Lord, and was a powerful influence in my life. It seems […]

Mark 1:14-15: Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent, and believe the gospel. The day in which we live is one of very rapid change. The previous […]

(Exodus 14:13). In 1 Samuel chapter 2, Hannah was saved from the taunting of her adversary Peninnah. Job trusted that God […]

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

Growing up in Columbus’ South side I had my comic book heroes: Superman, Spiderman, Aquaman, Iron Man, and others. As a scrawny kid these fellows inspired my imagination for big and exciting things. In church I also learned about some mighty heroes like David, whose faith in God enabled him to bring down a giant […]

In an earlier podcast I shared an experience I had forty years ago from which I have never recovered. Like so many others, I had caught a small glimpse of what God has in mind for all of humanity. Remembering the garden in Eden that Adam and Eve once enjoyed, it seems to us like […]

During my second visit to India I met a lady who was part of a House Church in Hyderabad. She invited us into her home and was very eager to share her testimony. I don’t remember if there was some sort of crisis in her life at that time of her conversion. I do remember […]

There was a time when I understood the Kingdom of God to be the place where Christians go when they die. Therefor it was very exciting moment when as a young Christian I realized that it had much more to do with life on this earth than I had previously thought. This is how it […]
