When I became Catholic I was a conservative in the thoughts of the return of Christ. I had been leaning away from a belief in a 'rapture' or 'catching a way' as the scripture calls it, before I converted. As I studied in preparation of that conversion, I became what is known as an a-millenniest. This is the belief that Christ will return and there is no 'rapture' as the pre-millenniest or conservative view. However, in the last couple of years I have become a pan-millenniest. That is, it will all PAN out in the end. << MORE >>

Good morning, brothers and sisters; it's always a delight to see the pews crowded on Sunday morning, and so eager to get into God's Word. Turn with me in your Bibles, if you will to the 47th chapter of Genesis, we'll begin our reading at verse 13, and go through verse 27. << MORE >>

... like the old joke I told many times from the pulpit, {There was a firey evangelist pouring on the coals at a summer revival. He asked the question, "How many here want to go to Heaven?" Everyone in the Church raised their hands, except two men in the back. The evangelist asked the question three times. And all three times, he got the same results. He finally walked half-way down the aisle and asked those two men, specifically, "Don't you two want to go to Heaven?" Their response was quick, "Oh Yes Sir, but we thought you were trying to get a boat load up tonight."} Most of us are ready to go, but not tonight. << MORE >>

The Blame Game

Lady Nancy Astor, a 20th century member of the British Parliament said, “I would like to say that the first time Adam had a chance he laid the blame on a woman.” Mankind has been in the “blaming business” since Eden.

Thus, we use this psychological tool to rationalize, defend, manipulate, or to explain the thinking and behavior of ourselves, and others.

My mind has been overwhelmed by the tragedy at Fort Hood, Tx. Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan has captured the attention of the nation.This smells of Bureaucratic Blindness. We have all heard of Officers that have been falling down in proficiencies being shipped to war zones. However, with his well known extremist views, shipping him to the adds credibility to the old joke that Miltary Intelligence is a conflict in terms.<< MORE >>

Some of my readers know that I have been involved with a Ministry called Inmate Family Ministry. You may get more information about this ministry at www.inmatefamilyministry.org. In 1998 I saw the need of founding this Ministry and we have pursued it ever since. Below is an excerpt from a study course book that I wrote, for support groups, made up of families of the incarcerated. These are the fogotten victims of crime. << MORE >>
