It may be argued that Stephen Hawking is the smartest man in the world. The Cambridge University professor, cosmologist, theoretical physicist and best-selling author recently wrote in his book “The Grand Design,” that the laws of physics can create the universe out of nothingness and that “God” is not necessary.
“Because there is a law such [...]

A few months ago, on a Wednesday, a storm blew down a tree in my yard and broke my cable television and internet line.
My wife called the company and they promised to be there the next day to fix it. The next day it wasn’t fixed so I called the company myself. They said they [...]

I’ve been working on an essay about the inerrancy of the bible, but need to post this real quick instead.
Christopher Hitchens, polemicist extraordinaire, has been diagnosed with esophageal cancer. He has canceled his current book tour and will begin chemotherapy immediately. Read more here.

O mundane grace, how dull the sound,
Useless to one like me.
I am not lost, don’t need t’be found,

He loves me just the way I am,
And my salvation’s sure.
Though I may [...]

In a recent bible study I attended, the leader said that God’s first covenant with mankind was with Abraham in which God promised that He would give Abraham innumerable descendents and set aside a land for them. This covenant is found in Genesis 15:5-18. While this is a very important covenant, and was one of [...]

Welcome to our bible study. Today we will be covering Paul’s letters; all of them. We might even throw in Hebrews if we have time.
Open your bibles to Romans 1:1 and follow along as I read, “Paul, a bond-servant of Christ Jesus, set apart for the gospel of God,” Well that’s all the time we [...]

“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” – John 3:16
One of the best ways to begin to properly interpret an individual verse of scripture is to look at the action verbs. These verbs almost always [...]

A very long time ago, when I worked for the Kent State University Museum, I saw a piece of artwork at the Canton Museum of Art. It was called, “Concerned With Many Issues.” I wanted to find a photo of it online to share with you, but had no success finding any reference to it. [...]
