TweetI am on a plane flying home from Orange County, where we have just completed our 14th Truth Project Conference. The Lord blessed again as He did His incredible work in the hearts and minds of around 900 warm and engaged attendees at Yorba Linda Friends Church. I am continually amazed at how God brings [...]
TweetSheryl’s memorial service was held last Saturday. I got up that morning and had no desire to blog. I have had no desire for seven days. Maybe it was because it was just appropriate to keep my mouth shut and observe a period of silence. There were hundreds of people who crowded into Rocky Mountain [...]

TweetMy Dad lives in an apartment in an assisted living community. Between my wife and I, we try to visit him at least once a day. Yesterday, I went over a little earlier than usual and he wasn’t home. Searching around, I found him in the dining room, enjoying one of the weekly “music fests” [...]
TweetIt seems almost ironic to me. On Tuesday, we were in mourning as a nation for the horrific slaughter of human life that occurred on the Virginia Tech campus. On Wednesday, when the Supreme Court made a monumental decision for life, upholding the law against partial-birth abortion, it was met with howling and derision. Sometimes [...]
TweetAlthough man is deeply complex, that doesn’t preclude the reality that certain absolute statements can be made about him. The biblical Christian worldview understands that man’s heart is “desperately wicked” (Gen 6:5, Jer 17:9). Without the direct constraint of civil law and order or the indirect constraint of cultural pressures or a few other more [...]
TweetI didn’t want to open it. As soon as I saw it in my inbox, I got up and walked around saying, “No…please, Lord, no.” I sat back down and stared at it, although it was starting to swim around. I think it was an automatic movement that finally clicked on the email and then [...]
TweetOkay, a few more “founders” to listen to as we try to get a feel for the consistent view that the foundations of religion and morality were critical to the republic they had established. Samuel Adams (he didn’t invent beer!) “Religion and good morals are the only solid foundations of public liberty and happiness.” Patrick [...]
TweetIf education in the early life of America was so clearly Christian-based and the founders seemed to believe that education was critical to the well-being of the republic, then we are now led to ask the question: “Why?” I hinted at that yesterday, and so let’s view a few statements from that era that will [...]
TweetAlright, it is tomorrow. (Can it ever BE tomorrow?) Anyway, we are looking at the criticality of Christian Education and yesterday we examined how the educational content of early America was consistently biblically-based. Today we are going to take a quick look at some of the founder’s statements regarding education. I’m only going to list [...]
