After a long and sensational ordeal of witnessing the wrestling match between God’s miraculous power and the stubborn heart of Pharaoh, the Israelite people have finally been led by God out their bondage of cruel slavery in Egypt.  He chose Moses, an imperfect knucklehead, so that all would know Who had really delivered them.  After [...]

Heaven in a Bowl

It’s just air…right?

I work with teens and their families on a regular basis.  As you can imagine, the issue of various forms of drug abuse and other addictions is a common topic in my office.  Parents have various levels of awareness of the presence and threat of drugs such as alcohol, marijuana, amphetamine, meth, crack, and the [...]
