A lesson for today in the story of Ruth
Many are facing challenging times. Headlines and daily newscasts are a continuous reminder of the turmoil of everyday life. It is easy to get weary in a world where your belief system is contested every minute. It’s easy to get angry, upset, anxious, even depressed over living in this day and age. Yet, as followers…
Read MoreThe Farm Chronicles: Memorial Day in the ’60s
It was usually a really crisp morning, the kind where mud puddles had a very thin layer of ice on them. You could see your breath on the way out to the horse barn. The horses were always ready to eat and when they heard the door to the tack room open, they would whinny.…
Read MoreGovernment Transgender Experiments on minors
Like a page out of Nazi Germany, the National Institutes of Health is funding experiments on the psychological effects of cross-sex hormones on transgender and nonbinary youth, 76% of them under the age of 18. The studies have prompted an inquiry from 15 Congressmen and Senators who are “deeply concerned about your agency’s use of…
Read MoreStupidocrisy: It didn’t make Bud-wiser
You may remember the old joke: Question—Does drinking beer make you smart? Answer—Well, it made Bud wiser. Budweiser has become the butt of a not-so-funny joke and apparently the company is not any wiser for the experience. In arguably one of the worst promotional decisions in modern advertising, Bud Light featured Dylan Mulvaney, a man…

Yes, he bought Twitter. Yes, he restored Donald Trump’s account. Yes, he is cracking down on leftists censoring conservatives on Twitter. Yes, he stood against the government propaganda on COVID. Yes, he exposed the FBI for influencing the elections. Yes, he donates money to Republicans. Yes, he says he is a champion of free speech.…

Have you, or are you having, a “Wilderness Experience” during your life. It’s a time when you look around and it seems dry and parched and nothing you do seems to change it. In my time on earth, I believe everyone I’ve known has had a wilderness experience. Many are having it now. There may…
Read MoreThe Farm Chronicles: Rescue us from the mire
Paula and I were in the same class in high school. We were, still are, good friends. During the week, we were on the same team—The Southeast Pirates. Whether it was girls basketball (she was one of the best players in the state of Ohio) or boys track or football, we were rooting for each…
Read MoreThe Durham Report: Beware and be wise
Special Counsel John Durham’s investigation into the 2016 election concludes that the FBI targeted the Trump campaign with no legitimate evidence; pulled out of the Clinton-Russia influence peddling investigation prematurely; and the secret FISA Court was used for political purposes. Conservative news media clearly sees this as a smoking gun of illegal and unethical practices.…
Read MoreStupidocrisy: Rewarding incompetence and evil results
One of the most egregious examples of mishandling a pandemic in history was witnessed by the world during COVID. Now the US government is rewarding one of the organizations whose alleged negligence may have leaked the deadly virus from its Chinese lab. The National Institutes of Health on April 26 awarded EcoHealth Alliance, Inc and…
Read MoreMinistering in the face of Islamic persecution
On May 14, 2023, I headed towards Bosuafise on 3-hours journey to join Christ Fellowship Church, a tiny little rural church operating in a woefully underserved community, to celebrate Mother’s Day. My journey was at the invitation of the women in the church. They had invited my wife but she was down with a severe cold…
