Surviving Biden

Posted on June 4, 2024 by RC

There has to be balance. There is a fatalism that simply shrugs when Rome’s imperial army is parked outside Jerusalem’s door. The destruction of the city in 70 AD was plenty bad. On the other hand, there are those who … Continue reading →

Remembering Tomorrow

Posted on May 31, 2024 by RC

Critics Anonymous, or, Sgt. Carter’s Wisdom

Posted on May 30, 2024 by RC

Criticism has its place. Paul did it. Jesus did it. The prophets did it. Sometimes critics are out of line, falsely accusing. Judas did it. The devil does it. False prophets do it. Then there are those who don’t criticize … Continue reading →

A Tale of 2 Sons- School, Lefties & the State

Posted on May 28, 2024 by RC

Imagine six people- two fathers, two mothers, two sons. Two of the parents, we’ll call them the Sprouls, are Christians. Sinners to be sure, but by God’s grace, repenting ones. The other parents, we’ll call them Mr. and Mrs. Horace … Continue reading →

Growing Younger

Posted on May 24, 2024 by RC

In the Garden

Posted on May 23, 2024 by RC

Seek First

Posted on May 21, 2024 by RC

It’s a pretty simple concept that we let slip too easily out of our hands, because it reveals our weaknesses. The concept is this- when the Bible warns us against something, there’s a pretty good chance we’ll be tempted to … Continue reading →

The Purpose Driven Write

Posted on May 20, 2024 by RC

My father wrote and published over 100 books in his lifetime. What may be even more impressive is how he coaxed me into writing my first. I was 17 years old and a freshman at Grove City College. We were … Continue reading →

Every Man a Churchman

Posted on May 17, 2024 by RC
