Too Much Knowledge

1824) When I was in college, I had a Japanese girl who was my roommate. Because she grew up in a different culture, I had a lot of questions for her. One was about how she learned to speak English. Her answer surprised me. She said she took around 10 years of English in school but

Rain

1823) If you’re not a farmer or gardener, it’s easy not to pay too close attention to rain unless there’s been too much of it or too little. Let’s just take a moment to think about it, though. Rain is important to the world in which we live. It keeps everything alive. It washes over the

Role Models

1822) Proverbs 22:34-35 tells us what sort of friendships are not healthy. It says that spending a lot of time with someone who is angry is dangerous. Why?

Jesus’ Role

Air Traffic Controllers

1818) These days, air travel is complicated and frustrating. If you have traveled anywhere in the last several years, it’s inevitable there will be some glitch you have to deal with. Since I’ve spent a lot of time sitting in a plane on the runway, waiting to either take off or for a gate to be

Taste Test

1817) I know a few people who’ve experienced God through someone (or a group of people) who is a child of God but does not send up an aroma that replicates the food God has prepared. When someone tastes the food of Christians, sometimes it’s bitter. Why? Most likely, this food is cooked, seasoned, and arranged

Leaning

1816) Since the Garden of Eden, man and woman often don’t understand each other. After all, I’ve been married to the same man for over 38 years and there are still times when I assumed he meant one thing, when he really meant another. We don’t only make these kinds of mistakes with each other; we
