Doubter’s Anonymous

On April 11, 1986 I arrived at Fort Benning’s “Welcome Center” for Army Basic Training.  I was immediately briefed on what I was allowed to bring with me to my company (and it wasn’t much).  There would be dire consequences for being caught with anything prohibited. We were then given the opportunity to enter a [...]

Take It Outside

When I was a kid, I loved to go fishing. During my Junior High years, mom would drop me and a couple friends at a lake and we would fish all day long. When I got old enough, I’d ride my bike. One morning, I really hit the jackpot! Just like the family cat after [...]

If Only…

All they asked was that we should continue to remember the poor, the very thing I had been eager to do all along. (Galatians 2:10)   We’ve probably all had the experience of not being able to see something that was right in front of us, whether it’s a set of keys, a screen door, or [...]

You Do It!

They were out in the countryside with no restaurants nearby and 5000 hungry men, not to mention women and children.  When they reported this obvious fact to Jesus and advised him to send the people away to get dinner, Jesus said something shocking. “You give them something to eat.” And they did a quick check [...]

Good News and Good Deeds

Community with a Cause

Recently, I’ve read the book Our Kids, written by Harvard Professor Robert Putnam.  In it, he argues that there is a widening opportunity gap for today’s kids.  Children from homes with lower incomes are facing greater and greater challenges than ever before. Why? Among other reasons, they lack something Putnam calls “Social Capital.”  Plainly speaking, [...]

Seeking Jesus, Serving Others

In 1955, it was 1 million.  In 1963, 1 billion.  In 1976, 20 billion.  1984, 50 billion.  1996, 80 billion.  And on April 15, 1994, 100 billion hamburgers had been served by McDonald’s franchises all over the world.  After that, they stopped counting. That's a lot of hamburgers.  But as many and as much as [...]
