My Pearl Turns 11
On March 27th, 2000 the Lord blessed my wife and I with our first child, Meaghan. She was so tiny, I called her "peanut." We also called her "squirt" because the doctor literally had to catch her as she shot out of the birth canal. Meaghan made quite an entrance! My life has never been the same.
Homeschool Matriarchs
Anyone who has known me for very long quickly surmises that I am a firm believer in Christians homeschooling their own children. The primary reason is that the Bible simply knows no other educational method than for parents to teach, train, disciple and raise up their own heritage (children). I find no biblical warrant for Christians to turn their children over to the state (or other secular institutions) for 40+ hours per week.
Life Reaches Land
On page 344 of Science Explorer, Pearson Prentice Hall, an 8th Grade textbook used in our local middle school, we read a section titled "Life Reaches Land."
Scientists Say the Darndest Things
Most of you are probably familiar with the old TV show "Kids Say the Darndest Things." I believe the orignal version was hosted by Art Linkletter, then later by Bill Cosby. It was cute show.
Love is in the Air
On this Valentine's Day, I would like to recite some lines from an ancient love poem to the love of my life, my wife:
The Allegorical Genesis?
"He [Jesus] answered, 'Have you not read that He who created them in the beginning made them male and female?' " (Matt 19:4).
Pro Evo
A few years ago, a college student in our church gave me a copy of a book that was being handed out on her campus like cotton candy. It's titled Pro Evo: Pro Evolution - Guideline for an Age of Joy. The author is Asama? The book represents a tragic attempt to formulate an ethical system founded upon Darwinian evolution.
The Wages of Sin
Fitness nut Jack Lalanne died yesterday. He was 96 and looked incredible. Read about his death here:
The Early Earth
"Your science class is going on a field trip, but this trip is a little out of the ordinary. You're going to travel back billions of years to the earliest days on earth . . . Enter the time machine and strap yourself in . . . a dial on the dashboard shows the number of years before the present. You stare at the dial - it reads 4.6 billion years" (Science Explorer, Pearson Prentice Hall, 8th Grade textbook, p. 338).
