By Dr. Jim Denison “We don’t see them as Democrats. They’re the Mitchells. We know they are good people who live next door. We love them.” In a country where 93 percent of us say civility is a problem, this story in the Wall Street Journal is welcome news. We meet the Gates family, who are lifelong Republicans, and the Mitchells, who are lifelong Democrats. […]

During a trip to celebrate our twenty-fifth anniversary, my husband and I read our Bibles on the beach. As vendors passed and called out the prices of their wares, we thanked each one but didn’t buy anything. One vendor, Fernando, smiled wide at my rejection and insisted we consider buying gifts for friends. After I declined his invitation, Fernando packed […]

Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.2 Corinthians 12:9 A number of years ago I wrote an essay about my collection of canes, staffs, and walking sticks and mused that I might someday graduate to a walker. Well, the day has come. A combination of back issues and […]

Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. Ezekiel 18:31 When my son acquired a small robot, he had fun programming it to perform simple tasks. He could make it move forward, stop, and then retrace its steps. He could even get it to beep and replay recorded noises. The […]

With all the things going on in this world this message is all the more important – especially to all who have declined the invitation to be *saved*.  Jesus Christ stands at our door, knocking, waiting for us to invite Him in but too many are too busy doing other things to hear the knock. I remind folks to think […]

I don’t think I sent this to you, but I thought you might be able to encourage your ‘listers’ to get out to vote and to encourage their pastors to urge their congregations to do so, as well. (^:  Kenny Smith and a great group of people, are really trying to reach out to churches.  This is what I sent, […]

Do not walk in the way of evil. Avoid it, do not travel on it. —Proverbs 4:14-15 My kids enjoy rollerblading. My 13-year-old son likes jumps, rails, and anything else he can do tricks on. But my daughters like long excursions on smooth paths. Straight-line blading has its hazards too, my daughter Julie explained to me. She said that when […]

Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me. Matthew 25:40 Several years ago when the Southern California economy took a downturn, Pastor Bob Johnson saw not only difficulty but also opportunity. So he scheduled a meeting with the mayor of his city and asked, “What can our church do […]

By Dr. Jim Denison “There are three things I’ve learned never to discuss with people: religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin.” So declares Linus in It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. Today, let’s discuss all three. We’ll begin with the last. As Maggie Maloney observes in Country Living, “No autumn is complete without the most sacred of traditions,” which she identifies as viewing the classic Peanuts […]

What a tremendous promise we have in today’s Bible verse. In the same way the angels surrounded the people in the Bible and protected them; they are surrounding you and protecting you today. “For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash […]

Your unfailing love is better than life itself; how I praise you!  Psalm 63:3 nlt On a recent airline flight the landing was a little rough, jostling us left and right down the runway. Some of the passengers were visibly nervous, but the tension broke when two little girls sitting behind me cheered, “Yeah! Let’s do that again!” Children are […]

“Patience; Prayer; Living Life: God’s Word and it’s Effect.” This Bible Study is written by Roger Christopherson, available at http://www.theseason.org There has been more controversy among the scholars about James, the message and the book, and who he is, than any other author of the New Testament. The author was not James the disciple and the brother of John, but he was […]

By Amy Peterson In the Netherlands, a group of fashion designers offer a “Golden Joinery” workshop. Inspired by the Japanese technique Kintsugi, where broken porcelain is visibly repaired with gold, participants collaborate in mending clothes in ways that highlight the mending work rather than trying to mask it. Those who are invited bring “a dear but broken garment and mend […]

Learn to do good; seek justice, rebuke the oppressor; defend the fatherless, plead for the widow. —Isaiah 1:17 After reading Isaiah 1, I thought of this riddle: What is heavy for God when it’s empty for me? Nothing is too hard for God to do, of course, but that doesn’t mean that nothing is a burden to Him. In fact, […]

By Dr. Jim Denison A free speech demonstration staged by conservatives in San Francisco on Saturday was attacked by several hundred counterprotesters. An Associated Press photographer witnessed a Trump supporter being taken away in an ambulance. When demonstrators threw glass bottles and plastic water bottles over police barricades at the group, the event was canceled. The event’s organizer posted photos of his […]

Perhaps this will add to the underlying things going on today.  As I often mention – we are in a SPIRITUAL WAR and DELUSION is the enemies major weapon – fired off hourly in the media and the political discourse.  The lies that are presented endlessly should convince many of the TIME we are living in. Born Again Believers must […]

WOW !!!!   WOW!!!  Each week J. D. Farag keeps coming up with more and more information that I hope everyone will watch and listen to. Todays program brings up information that I have thought for decades (back to the JFK assassination).  I never bought the media and government story of who. how, why JFK was murdered. He also near the […]

“Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share,” 1 Timothy 6:18 We will enjoy forever what we invest in heaven, and we invest in heaven every time we use the money for good. “Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share,” (1 […]

Imagine life without mobile phones, Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth devices, or microwave ovens. That’s the way it is in the little town of Green Bank, West Virginia, known as “the quietest town in America.” It’s also the location of the Green Bank Observatory, the world’s largest steerable radio telescope. The telescope needs “quiet” to “listen” to naturally occurring radio waves emitted […]
