The Lord Giveth, and the Lord Taketh Away
Though He is the potter and we are but clay, this does not keep us from complaining about our station. When the God of heaven and earth, the One who made all things, asks if the clay will ask of … Continue reading

Room 101

The Greatest Evil
What if I told you that on September 12, 2001 terrorists in the United States killed 3000 people, and the story didn’t even make the news? What if I told you that on January 7th, 2021 terrorists killed 2500 people … Continue reading

Fighting From Freedom
I have, on more than one occasion, taught a class on dystopian novels. We’ve read Brave New World, 1984, That Hideous Strength and more. I always ask my class “Why do these men, the rulers over these dark and domineering … Continue reading
