Jesus … Single Like Me!

Kris Swiatocho — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 05:00:00 GMT

Competition & Christ: Compatible?

Shawn McEvoy — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 05:00:00 GMT

A friend in my fantasy baseball league opened a can of worms once by asking, "Should we as Christians even be competitive? I know from scripture we read Paul saying run the race to win, but he is obviously talking about going all out to live the Christian life.

Are You a Worrier?

Carolyn Mahaney and Nicole Whitacre — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 07:18:00 GMT

Tell me you can’t relate to this scenario. You talk to a woman who is in the middle of a trial. She testifies to God’s overwhelming and sustaining grace. But instead of praising God for His evident faithfulness, you begin to imagine yourself enduring her ordeal...

God Hears You

Donnetta Cole — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 06:39:00 GMT

Dr. Warren Throckmorton — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 04:27:00 GMT

Back in March, 2008, the British Royal College of Psychiatrists produced a statement on mental health and abortion. I think the American Psychological Association should have passed this statement instead of the one that just came out of their Boston annual meeting.

Last night, I watched my television in utter disbelief as American track-and-field star LoLo Jones stumbled and fell in the Olympic finals of the 100-meter hurdles. How could this be? She was heavily favored and was supposed to win this race.
