Many people say that God does not exist. But something we Christians do not understand sometimes is that people who pronounce these statements are often those who have only lived 20, 30, 40, or 50 years, and yet, they try to judge the existence of a Divine Being who has existed through...

In the early morning of January 2021, we received the most precious welcome to parenthood: a six-lb. 11-oz. baby girl. Since then, I've learned to appreciate God's love and

Getting a job as a teacher on Long Island can be very difficult. Nepotism is rampant. If you are not well connected, there is almost zero chance of you landing a job. I believe that God placed Michelle in her new role as a principal that year because...

I was gathering my papers and briefcase so that I could run out the door to an important meeting to plan the building of a larger church. I was in a rush. My children, Jason and Julie, were 6 and 3 years old. They heard me getting ready to leave. They ran up to me, questioning, “Where are you going, Daddy?” “I am going to a meeting,” I replied factually. I had to gently pry their arms off my neck so I could go. They started...

We were praying to God for Him to open a door for her. To us, it seemed impossible because many people were losing their jobs. It was as if we had forgotten that God can do anything regardless of the situation. One day, while I was at work, I received...

The book of Revelation and its symbols, stories, and themes are the subject of many modern books, movies, and art. In the United States and worldwide, people have a general sense that we are living out the scenes written in the pages of Revelation. One survey reports that 41% of all U.S. adults, 54% of Protestants, and 77% of Evangelicals believe the world is now in the biblical end times. It makes sense, then, that interest in...

My contemplative thoughts of beauty and MORE BEAUTY were interrupted by the giggles and laughter of little hikers, 4 or 5 years old, climbing up to the very same spot with their parents. Another family followed. Then another one. I watched as these little ones peered over the edge. Dancing about. Jumping from rock to rock. Parents were taking pictures and...
