As I was reading a book to my son during our nightly “Girly-Book Time” there was a story of a non-Christian consistently proverbially battering a Christian and then accusing her of not being willing to forgive. Now, I am not suggesting that he was right, as the type of forgiveness one gives is largely dependent [...]

What is Mother’s Day? As a potentially disrespectful high school student, I recall many of my friends saying things like it is a holiday created by greeting card companies for the express intent to make money.

This week I have attended three different national Bible Quiz tournaments. One high school tournament, one elementary tournament, and one middle and high school combined tournament. Bible Quiz is an amazing event, where groups from around the country come to participate against other groups in a competitive event revolving around Bible Memorization. In total, I [...]

This is the link to a CNN video chronicling part of our experience at Passion 2012. This three minute video gives a quick overview of how we prayed and raised money to seek an end to human trafficking. I recommend it highly (and not just because I’m in it — hiding like Where’s Waldo!) We [...]

We’ve heard the questions. Maybe we’ve even thought them ourselves, if not today than in our youth or shortly after our conversion to Christianity. Why would you celebrate the day that your beloved Savior experienced His worst day on earth? Why would you celebrate the unfairness of the God, who upholds and sustains the universe [...]
