[preface] I have come to be in awe of this attribute of God, for it reveals to us one of the most remarkable characteristics of His nature and, I would dare say, even the very heart of God. As such, it is not surprising that we see it deeply manifested in every aspect of life.
God delegates.
It is not a word that is literally found in the Bible, just as we will not find omnipotent or omni...
The Hillary Clinton classified email issue keeps getting worse. She not only mishandled thousands of classified documents at the highest security levels, but also now we learn that some of those documents were from human intelligence agents operating live in the field. If ever there was a symbol of how blue-elites are protected by blue-media, this is a huge one. No one, on either side of the r...
Our President will offer, on Tuesday, his State of the Union address. However, it will most likely not be a true state of our nation, but rather another political posturing speech, just like we have heard for years, from both Republicans and Democrats. This is unfortunate, for our nation needs a true, honest assessment of where we are as a culture. It is in that spirit I offer my humble perspec...
Just when you thought our culture couldn’t get any crazier, we now have a 47-year-old father of seven who wants to be identified as a six-year-old girl.
But the really crazy thing is that our culture is gushing over him.
Why? Well, it’s primarily because of the Covenant of Tolerance, where we discard the notion of absolute, transcendent Truth, substitute the individual as it&r...
For those who have been asking…I have been on the road in back-to-back trips for the last month or so. After the Grand Canyon filming, I taught the Calvary Chapel East Anaheim men’s retreat in the mountains of California, followed immediately by teaching at Impact 360, near Callaway Gardens, Georgia. This is an amazing gap-year program run by one of the great foundations of Chick-f...
Here are a few headlines in today’s paper:
“Palestinians go on stabbing spree”, page 5, small article
If this were Israelis that had gone on a stabbing spree, coverage would have conveyed outrage, negative remarks, and may have even generated calls for political action against Israel. As it was written, there was nothing about the Israeli victims, but a mention that the ...
Next to the enormity of the Grand Canyon, the most prominent feature is its strata…the many sedimentary layers that make up the canyon walls. The layers are quite unique, distinct and massive, both in their vertical depth and lateral or horizontal extent, some extending up into Canada, for example. They are also quite undisturbed, meaning the layers form neat lines without signs of erosi...
We have hiked even deeper in to the Hualapai Reservation to look at a bed of nautiloid fossils.
A nautiloid is a squid-like creature that lived in a long cone-shaped shell. They were predators and could reach four feet in length. Although they don’t exist today, they were prevalent at the time of the flood. Dr. Austin led us to one of his favorite places where he had found 21 nautiloid...
We are on a special permit many miles deep into the Hualapai Reservation (pronounced wal-a-pie) along Diamond Creek. The formation we are looking at is called “The Great Unconformity”. It is the boundary between the metamorphic “basement” rocks below and the sedimentary layers that extend, in some places, three miles up. The purple looking rock is granite. The khaki loo...
I have rafted down the Grand Canyon twice and been to the rim numerous times, but it still takes my breath away. This is our third day here and we finally made it up to the eastern end of the South Rim. Tom is manning one camera out on the point. We are with Dr. Steve Austin, an incredibly smart geologist who has spent years below the rim studying nautiloid fossils and other features in this am...
