One of my weekly routines includes reading some of my favorite blogs.  After viewing this video from another blog, I decided we should put it on our JUSTONEMORE page. You will agree with me that John Piper nails it.  This is one of the clearest, most soul stirring arguments against abortion. Spread the word, and …

Last weekend at CrossPoint we crossed a worship threshold we have never before traversed in our brief history.  My words are inadequate.  After my morning devotions I settled on this singular explanation: we experienced an infinitesimal reflection of God’s glory.  I don’t know about any of you, but I want more.  Not more worship, more …

So what did you think of President Obama’s inauguration?  It was quite an affair, wasn’t it? There was a lot to admire. We are reminded, once again, of the visionary forethought of our Founding Fathers.  The transition of power is one part of the brilliance behind a democracy like ours. The pomp and circumstance was …

These are incredible days, aren’t they?  Yesterday we celebrated the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr.  Today, we inaugurated America’s first black president.  These days are unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable.

I called my son this morning, reminding him to vote tomorrow.  He voted for the first time in last June’s primary election.  When we spoke he expressed excitement about voting in the general election. I remember the first time I voted.  My mom and I went to the voting precinct together.  Before exciting the car …

Okay, here I go on another political rant.  I have intentionally avoided watching the political spin lately because it nauseates me.  Let me express my beef, and then I will move on to another topic for tomorrow. Here are a few political buzzwords or thoughts that make we want to scream: If I hear another …

The following blog is not an endorsement of the Catholic Church.  The greatest thing that could ever happen to the Catholic Church is for the Pope to realize, accept and proclaim salvation is by faith through Jesus Christ…ALONE.  I will devote more about that statement in a future blog. Now to the matter at hand, …

Have any of noticed how much instantaneous information thrives in our culture? I don’t get it.  It seems like we are inundated every hour on stuff that is important, but not important enough to talk about every hour. Allow me to illustrate. The other day our government announced the unemployment figures for the month.  It …
