Five Reasons Why I Hate Halloween and Zombies I will probably get into trouble with this post because some of you out there are ardent Halloween fans. I know you think of it as a fun holiday, cute decorations and fun activities for the kiddos. I know if done right, it is a harmless family fun activity with lots of pumpkins, candy, parties, caramel apples and dressing up in cool costumes. Why, even our beloved Charlie Brown characters go to the pumpkin patch to await the arrival of the Great ... View the Post
Is This the End of the World?
We have a global crisis going on, folks. Is this the end of the world? Incredibly, the FEAR of getting the COVID-19 virus, as it is called, has swept the entire globe and has caused the closure of ALL businesses and travel around the world.

The Day Jesus Came To My House
I got a message from the Lord that He was going to visit me today. In my house. In person. Wow. I rush to pick up the dishes from breakfast and sweep the floor, Then I meet Him at the door and greet Him joyfully. "Come on in, Lord," I say with a sweep of my arm. "Sit here.

God Is On the Move!
God is on the move. In the book, Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, written by CS Lewis, the four Pevensie children enter a strange and wonderful world where they meet a couple of talking beavers. The beavers say to them, "Aslan is on the move." The children do not know who Aslan is, the significance of his re-appearance in the land of Narnia, and the signs of his appearance. While Mr. and Mrs. Beaver do not elaborate, they express great astonishment that the four children would not ... View the Post
Six Reasons Why I Believe the End is Very Near!
In response to several comments on my last blog about the Blood Moons, I would like to clarify several points about the "end times" and signs that we have in Scripture concerning this. How can I state so categorically that I believe we are living on the verge of the events foretold in Scripture? After studying these things for most of my life, and having been taught them at Multnomah Bible University, I feel I can speak to you about this topic. Let's take a look at one of the most ...
