Champion Quitter
Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. – 1 Corinthians 9:24 The primary barrier preventing me from competing in the Olympics has been their over emphasis on sports. The games dogmatically exclude everyone who […]
Law Won’t Save Ya
“All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.” Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because, “The righteous will live by faith.” – Galatians 3:10 This is a […]
Care For The Planet Is Selfishness
Every horror movie contains a scene where the murderous creature chases the hapless victims to a point where they must decide whether to run outside or upstairs into the attic with no exits. There is always at least one person who runs into the attic, slams the door, and crouches down behind the dresser. Guaranteed, […]
Pro-Abortion People Are Villains
People who support abortion are like rejected villains from a James Bond movie. There is nothing more wretched than murdering babies before they’re born. Picture the pro-abortion person explaining her plan to James Bond after he’s been strapped to a missile aimed at a hospital maternity ward. “Before you die, Mr. Bond, I want you […]
Masks Don’t Love Your Neighbor
I was told by several people who are more famous and influential than me, that the most effective way to love my neighbor right now, is to wear a mask.

And Now A Word from Your Sponsor
And now a word from your sponsor. Today is brought to you by the unfathomable power and grace of God. There are no co-sponsors assisting Him. You are experiencing life at this moment because the giver of all good things enables you to draw breath. You did nothing to deserve this day. You did not […]
You Can’t Be Good Without God
Christians should stop thinking about pagans as “good people” who just need to follow Jesus. The atheists and humanists are quite fond of touting the idea that they are, “Good without God.” In their minds, basic “goodness” is inherent in people and we don’t need to believe the superstitions of religion to tap into our […]
Would Jesus Get Vaccinated?
The consensus on Facebook seems to be that Jesus would absolutely get vaccinated for COVID. It follows that everyone who wants to be like Jesus would also get vaccinated. I’m not interested in offering my opinion because I don’t think I’m capable of predicting what Jesus would do. Christ often did unexpected things. Someone in […]
Self Expression Is A Waste of Time
The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” That’s from the Bible. Many Christians prefer not to use that particular text because it’s pretty divisive. Modern English has another word for people who don’t believe in God: “Atheist.” We like that word better because it is much more dignified. Fools don’t mind being […]
