I recently heard a pastor who was talking about three spaces: the first space is where people are like you, the second space is where you have connections with others who may not be like you, and the third space is an environment where you have no relationships. He referenced the story in Acts 17:17 where Paul wanted to reach the Romans in Athens. The first place he went was to the religious. You might ask the question, how he was going to reach the Romans if he went to the church? This first place he described was our comfortable […]

Sadly too many of us know families who have lost a loved one suddenly to a heart attack. In fact, heart attack is listed as the number one cause of death and takes a life around every 30 seconds. It is a tragic, shocking event and one that, for the most part, can be prevented by taking good care of our bodies. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. Our heart is made up of four chambers and veins and arteries. It consists of connective tissue, blood vessels, nerves and fat but is mostly comprised of cardiac muscle, a unique type […]

Last September Denise sat in an abortion clinic on Oakland Park Boulevard. Financial pressure and embarrassment took her there.  “I was determined. I mean, I don’t believe in abortion. But I was facing a situation.” So she told herself, “Okay, I’m going to get this done.” Surrounded by the clinic’s bare walls on a Saturday morning, she filled out paperwork and grew anxious. “I saw my life flash before me.” She walked out to the parking lot and spotted four people talking with the friend who brought her. “And I’m like, ‘Are you kidding me? Right now?’”They told Denise they were […]

Faithful. Humble. Grateful. Obedient. Serving. These are just a few of the adjectives that come to mind after spending a weekend at the Christian Mastermind Summit at St. Andrews Country Club in Boca Raton, hosted by David Green and his lovely wife of 55 years, Barbara Green. David Green has closely followed Biblical principles over the years. In 1972, the founder and CEO of the arts and crafts chain, Hobby Lobby, started the business with just $600. From the company’s humble beginnings in an Oklahoma City living room, Green, age 71, now oversees close to 20,000 employees and over 500 […]

Imagine you are a police officer. It’s late at night and you’ve just pulled over a suspicious vehicle. As you and your partner approach the car, you must analyze and decide your next move in milliseconds. Suddenly, the driver jumps out of the car and approaches you shouting that he “wasn’t speeding.” As you firmly ask the driver to sit back in his car, the front passenger steps out and pushes past your partner. As your partner commands him to get back in the car, the passenger abruptly turns towards you and reaches for a dark object in his pocket. […]

If I said, “fireworks” and “marriage,” would you think of a euphoric feeling that overflows from your effervescent love-life? Unfortunately for many couples, marital fireworks may be anger explosions and bitter fighting. Have you ever found yourself doing any or all of these when you fight? Saying “you never …” or “you always …” Humiliating Yelling Threatening divorce Using force Blaming Abandoning Playing the martyr/victim Interrupting These are all symptoms of dirty fighting – the conflict style that wounds instead of builds.   Who wins? There is always one winner of a dirty fight – Satan. His goal is to […]

(WNS)–When Marius and Ruth Bodnariu sent their daughters off to school one day last fall, they had no idea they would not come home. And they certainly never imagined their three sons would also be gone before the next sundown — all five children seized by the Norwegian government because of their parents’ Christian beliefs. Tens of thousands of citizens across the globe have joined in protesting the Norwegian Child Welfare Agency’s seizure of the children after a school principal reported their parents for “indoctrinating” their children. The Bodnariu family lives in Naustdal, Norway, where Marius works as an IT […]

The city of Jerusalem is the highlight of any pilgrimage to the Holy Land. It is not just a city that has some 4,000 years of history, making it one of the oldest cities on earth, but it is mentioned 806 times in the Bible with names as beautiful as “City of God,” “Joyful City” and “Desired One.” Jerusalem in Hebrew is Yerushalayim and is often translated as “City of Peace.” It is situated on the southern Judean plateau, which at its highest point is 2,500 feet above sea level. Just 37 miles west of Jerusalem is the Mediterranean Sea, […]
