Thank you to everyone who serves in the arm forces of this great country.  We never say it enough, but we owe you a tremendous debt for your service to keep us free.  Our country isn’t perfect. It’s a long way from it. But we do have much to be thankful for, and I thank … Continue reading »

4:15 in the morning and I’m up and awake.  Anywho… I found this interesting: What today’s church looks like from Sunday to Sunday… • This past Sunday it is possible that more Christian believers attended church in China than in all of so-called “Christian Europe.” Yet in 1970 there were no legally functioning churches in all … Continue reading »
