It is easy to feel horrible about injustice in the world. I really like to listen to the podcasts from the Brooklyn Tabernacle, and I heard pastor Tim Delena mention a ministry in Detroit.

This is an important day in American history.
2 Chronicles 14,15, and 16 chronicles the life of King Asa.

Asa reforms, but he leaves some high places 15:16
Life without God 15:3-5
Seeking God and finding Rest on Every Side 15:11-15
God looks for those who seek him with all their heart 16:9

The news that Evander Holyfield is preparing to fight in Detroit reminded me again of this story, which has been on my mind all year…
A Piece of Steak
A Piece of Steak was originally published in a magazine in 1909. I read it from the printed pages of a short story collection published in 196?. But, [...]
“Just as I am” is a famous song in Billy Graham evangelical crusades. As Christians, we are often told about how people are miraculously delivered from sin in one fell swoop at the alter when they become born again. We don’t hear so often about the many of those at the alter who fall back [...]
I am still 3 days away from my great trans-continental train journey, and I’ve already met the first hiccup.
I received an automated call from Amtrak telling me that the train I had reserved from Los Angeles to San Diego is canceled.
I expected this segment to be the easiest part of my trip. Amtrak runs several [...]
