Creationism vs Evolution

The great debate between Creationism vs. Evolution continues in its quest to prove the origin of all things. There are three models of Creationism: Biblical Creationism uses only the Bible without science to back it up; Scientific Biblical Creationism uses biblical revelation of the Creation along with science to support and expound upon it; and Scientific Creationism does not recognize the biblical account of Creation, only scientific data to support the Creation model. Our purpose here will be to supplement with all three types of Creationism against the Theory of Evolution. The Bible claims that “The Creation” was the act […]

Happiness is a Choice

There are times in every marriage when “wedded bliss” seems to have flown out of the proverbial window. Events take place that can change the course of your very life: losing a job or house, coping with illness, having children, etc. Living with your spouse over a span of time will expose every flaw that you and they have.

You may look back to the days when you were single and remember all the […]

Stop! Don’t Go There

Have you ever thought of your mind as a physical landscape with many different places to visit? The truth is that there are a multitude of venues in your mind – some of these bring joy and peace while others bring shame, guilt, anger and sadness. Sometimes, we get caught up in cycles where we keep visiting the “ugly” places and replay certain events in our mind, experiencing the same old emotions.

LOL is the Best Medicine Around

The children were lined up for lunch in the cafeteria of a Christian school. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The teacher made a note, and posted it on the apple tray, “Take only one. God is watching.” Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. One child whispered to another, “Take all you want. God is watching the apples.” It is said that laughter is the best medicine. Even the Bible tells us this in Proverbs 17:22, which states, “A […]
