A New Bible Interaction Approach

Yesterday not only marked our marriage anniversary, it also marked the completion of a year’s worth of very valuable interaction with Tim Tebow’s Mission Possible One-Year Devotional. It has been a very helpful resource.

“After the Sigh of Relief: 7 Post-Election Observations”

(This brief review includes comments on why Donald Trump won, why Kamala Harris failed, why 434 was an effective strategy against the pro-abortion industry’s desires to capture our state, 434 also overcoming the strange attacks from a collection of contrarian, abolitionist pro-life people, and what this all means for an American Christian’s answer to the question, “And so…

It’s An Anniversary Day!

Claire and I are celebrating our 53rd wedding anniversary today. Well, true enough, ours wasn’t the traditional wedding service.

Is a YES Vote for 434 Pro-Abortion? Certainly Not!

 Denny, On the ballot are initiatives 434 and 439. Both are pro-abortion. From “prolife” groups, all I hear is to vote Yes to 434 and NO to 439. Why should I not vote NO to both? My reply? Thanks for your concerns. I’m sending along links that express my opinions about the amendments and why…
