Side by Side Comparison of Two Water Filters
I recently shot a video to compare two of my backpacking water filters. First up was the MSR Mini Works. I’ve owned this filter for nearly twenty years. The original ceramic filter has been replaced as well as the O rings. However, the rest of the filter is still original. The MSR Mini Works has […]
Why Don’t the Gospels Describe the Resurrection Scene?
The Resurrection. If Jesus dies but does not return from the dead, then he is either a liar or a hoax. However, if he rises from the dead as predicted, then He is exactly who He claimed to be, and is Lord over all. Everything hinges on it. Clearly, this is the biggest event in […]
No Other Religion Has An Easter
Most world religions have compulsory festivals or times of celebrations. For example, Muslims have Ramadan and Jews have Passover. Christianity, on the other hand, has no mandated celebration. Neither Jesus nor His disciples ever instructed future followers to observe any specific day or event. As a matter of fact, it would seem that Jesus removed the weekly […]
How Can I Know the Will of God?

What About the Lost Books of the Bible?
Ever since The Da Vinci Code became a best-seller, this question has been asked a lot. In Dan Brown’s popular book/movie it was suggested that early church leaders had concealed the truth about Jesus by covering up several ancient writings about Him. It was said that these other writings revealed a Jesus who was different than found […]
Why Do Bad Things Happen to Good People?
This is it. This is the million dollar question. I couldn’t imagine an answer to any question that has been sought after by more people than this very one. It was posed to me from a friend on Facebook. When I saw it I swallowed hard. It’s not that I don’t have a response. It’s […]
The Golden Chain of Redemption and Proginóskó
I was prompted to write this blog at the suggestion of a friend on Facebook. Let me begin, however, with a strong word of caution with which the reader should be aware. I have never studied Greek. I have never had an Introduction to Greek class. Actually, I’ve never been to seminary. Heck, I’ve never […]
Does Prayer Work?
A very good question about prayer was recently posed by a friend on Facebook. The one who raised the question made a very keen observation. She noted that sometimes people have claimed that because many prayers were lifted on their behalf that they received a miracle from God. In fact, she cited a popular author who […]
