Summit Ministries

Posted on Sep 3, 2010 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

We have just finished teaching creation to another group of students at Summit Ministries. We had three sessions plus an open forum with them. This is the last session of Summit this year. We are already looking forward to more groups next year. Whenever we have large (or small) groups of high-school and college-age students, we really enjoy being there. Pray that some of these students will be taking the information we just gave them to new levels and to places we will...

What If???

A few evenings ago I had the fun of taking my two young grandsons to a Monster Truck show. It was not only a time to be able to spend with the boys, but to be truthful, I (like my two grand boys) love hearing the ear splitting , chest-thumping roar and seeing huge trucks with outlandish sized tires defy gravity and fly through the air, squashing things upon their bone- jarring landing.

Sometimes we struggle so hard to “find” God’s will for our lives, but often it’s easier than we think.

So (after some time to get over our initial frustration), we thank God: That His love and care are constant despite the...

In Awe of My Creator

Standing at the edge of the vast expanse of water with an immense dome of sky over my head, viewing a horizon that stretched farther than the limit of my sight, I was awed by the immensity of God’s Creation. The continual pounding power of the surf reminded me of the awesome power of our Creator. “Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing...

Beware of False Teachers

Posted on Aug 26, 2010 in Nuttings from the Front | 0 comments

The Bible frequently warns believers to be on guard against false prophets and false teaching. Evolution is one of the most common and dangerous forms of false teaching which has permeated our schools, society, and even churches today. As we speak around the country, we run into many well-meaning Christians who have been led astray, thinking that evolution is science, and that it has been scientifically proven. They then try to find ways in which to “fit” evolution with the...
