Worldviews can be an interesting topic because few understand what they are or how they function. I have written about these issues several times and have referenced them in other posts, but not for several years. You can view my four posts for February 2014 starting...

There is a story that goes something like this. One day, a scientist made the claim that he and his team had figured out how to make human life. So, the scientist approached God Almighty and said, “We have figured out how to make humans and know how you created us.”...

Growing up in the church, we would often have events where there was a “free will” offering collected. Rather than charge a fee to attend the event, you could give whatever you wanted (if anything) toward the event’s cost or whatever cause funds were being raised for....

“Imagine how much more we could get done in the church if no one cared who got the credit.” (author unknown)
The above quote was brought back to my attention two months ago when I received life ordination as a minister in the Churches of God, General Conference denomination....

The Bible is rather interesting in that in many of the stories there are the stories of two children. Cain and Abel, Ishmael and Isaac, Esau and Jacob, Eliab and David, Absalom and Solomon. The list goes on. In each of these stories the first one is not treated kindly...

This week I was hoping to change gears and, for once, write in tandem with Katie and her blog post concerning what the Bible says about suicide. This topic is near and dear to me and, unfortunately, for many others as well it's hit fairly close to home. Coincidentally...

Last week, I wrote about what the Bible says about life and death. This week, I want to address a different circumstance of that: suicide. This is a topic that we at Worldview Warriors have been asked about at various times and in various ways, so we want to address...

This past week, I got to watch the last hour of a movie that, having grown up in the 1990s, I consider a classic. Braveheart is the story of William Wallace, who led the Scottish revolt against the king of England beginning in the late 13th century. The theme of the movie...
