« Previous EntriesReview This Book? I Don’t Think So
Friday, February 29th, 2008One of the books that came into our office this week bore a distinctive description of its writing process. There are an awful lot of books out there, and we receive several every day, sent to us by authors or publishers hoping we will review their offering.
But one of the volumes that arrived Tuesday had […]
TV to Avoid: The Moment of Truth
Thursday, February 28th, 2008Seeing commercials for this program was nauseating enough. I couldn’t tolerate viewing the actual show.
Television is outdoing itself, exploiting gullible people, and destroying families and lives. That’s all that can happen with this show.
The wife of a New York City cop admitted, on Fox’s The Moment of Truth, that she cheated on him. Oh, […]

Couple Says No to Abortion; Healthy Baby Born
Monday, February 25th, 2008Another Strike Against Abortion
“I find myself wondering how many other babies are killed who would have turned out to be completely healthy.” —Becky Kramer
The doctors said he would be born deaf, blind and only live a few hours. But Becky and Kriss Kramer of South Wales said no and their son Brandon was born […]
Churches and Cathedrals
Friday, February 22nd, 2008One of my favorite photographic subjects is churches and cathedrals. I have shot many on my trips for the World Missions Edition of Today’s Pentecostal Evangel, but I have sought out others on my own as well. I love the way the cross fits into the lines of the Palma Cathedral (pictured here) in Palma […]
“Your Sin Will Find You Out” … 2008-Style
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008The AP reported an interesting story today that gives a 2008 spin to the Bible’s warning “Be sure your sin will find you out” (Num. 32:23).
An elated video gamer, 29, in Delhi, La., called his friend to say, “I have killed them all”
(in the video game).
Problem was, he called a wrong number, alarming the woman […]
Two Friends Named Paul
Tuesday, February 19th, 2008My friend Paul Veliquette, pastor of the Windsor (Colo.) Assembly of God, wrote our Daily Boost devotional today. Daily Boost is a devotional that TPE puts out every weekday, available both online or by free email subscription.
Paul’s devotional is of special interest to me because it is about a mutual friend who is no longer […]
Why I Won’t Be Watching the NBA All-Star Game
Saturday, February 16th, 2008I’m a sports fan, but I don’t watch the NBA All-Star game. The NBA is enough about individual play and primadonna superstars as it is, but when you put them all together with the express purpose of seeing who can call attention to himself the most, it plays out too much like a self-love fest, […]
