Maranatha

 Today was the 80th anniversary of my grandfather coming back from the dead, so I got to lead this morning's devotions on the set of Janet Porter's sitcom  What's a Girl to Do? I told how I shared that story to our cast and crew on September 4, 2021, while we were praying for a three-year-...

In our Bible study this morning one of our pastors, Randy Solomon, who worked as an engineer for NASA told this story: Yuri Gagarin, First Human in Space Was a Devout Christian Says His Close Friend.

Dr. Linda Warren tells a story that sets up the story of Joyce and myself. The personal epiphany she explains as she unpacks  Isaiah 61:1-4 happened not long before she became Joyce's boss at Sports Illustrated in the early 90s. If what you're about to hear hadn't happened, I might ne...

Whenever I hear people say all religions are the same I think of all the religious practices we've come across on our journeys to six continents and about 40 nations, living in NYC where every nation on earth is represented, and just observing the world:
• In Israel we encountered the Druze. Their...

Tomorrow night may be the last time you'll be able to see  Run the Race in a theater. I really thought it was a slam dunk, to add a metaphor from a third sport into the mix! It's about football playing brothers who switch over to track.

It was great writing, cinematography, directing, a...

Joyce shares about God's love from  1 John 4:7-21 for the Nazarene Church in Greve, Denmark, just outside of Copenhagen.

Joyce was interpreted into Danish through headphones for those who needed it, so she doesn't pause for interpretation, but you can hear the interpreter speaking into th...

Linda with Joyce and I just
before the turn of the century.
Tonight  Dr. Linda Warren taught on Matthew 27 and Psalm 22:1-11, and as an analogy she shared how she came to the Lord. I was sobbing and sobbing, because she's the one who led Joyce to the Lord when they worked together at Sports Ill...

My best friend from seventh grade through college was Ken Redford. During the awkward years of junior high I introduced him to Jesus and the Evangelical Quakers, my denomination at the time. Last week Ken was the main speaker and clerk for the Northwest Yearly Meeting of Evangelical Quakers.
