By Larry Peterson
As a cradle Catholic who went to twelve years of Catholic school 'waaaaay' back in the 50's and 60's, I can say without hesitation, my education in the Bible and about the Bible and of the Bible was almost non-existent.

Using Temptations To Our Advantage
By Lori Conklin
I remember the day I met my first truly holy person. Now, she would tell you she is anything BUT holy. She was to give a talk at the conclusion of our first Rachel's Vineyard Weekend Retreat. She was speaking on the topic of God's Abundant Mercy and Forgiveness. I thought that was an excellent choice given the flavor of the weekend.

Atheists' Objections to Evidence for God's Existence, Part 5
By Bob Hunt
Can the scientific method be useful in measuring the effects of God on the world? If a miraculous healing is claimed, can science be useful in verifying the healing?

Why Me, Lord?
Why Me, Lord?
By Rev. John H. Hampsch, C.M.F
A newspaper reporter phoned in to his editor a story about an empty truck that rolled down a hill and smashed into a house. The editor was unimpressed, rejecting the item as too insignificant to be a news item. “It’s curious that you’re so disinterested,” said the reporter. “It was your house.”

You don't believe in Baptism?
By De Maria
Naaman didn't believe in Baptism either. When Elisha said to Naaman: 2 Kings 5: 10 Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shalt be clean. Naaman didn't believe that God could heal him by any water much less in the Jordan's waters saying: 12 Are not Abana and Pharpar, rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel?

Where Are You, Church?
Where Are You, Church?
By Mary Ann Gambill
Aaron is sharing with Sollie his letters and his pumpkin stickers. He loves without qualifying. Seeing love in my home, struggling to see it in the world. Where is the Church? I still can't seem to write anything remotely publishable. My heart is hurting for refugees washing up on shores, Christians being beheaded and the deafening absence of Christians. How have we lost our identity?
