I’ve decided to put Voddie Baucham’s blog posts on my site. I really can’t suport this guy’s ministry enough.  He’s a great speaker, passionate about the truth of the Bible, and a really great person.  I’ve learned so much through his study “The Ever Loving Truth,” and I just want to support his ministry even [...]

Well, it’s almost September, and that means another year of Kinship is up ahead!  I’m really looking forward to this year, and I feel like I’ve learned a lot from last year.  Some of the stuff I tried worked.  Some (well, maybe a lot) of the stuff didn’t work, [...]

The other day I heard someone remark after being wronged, “That’s ok, nobody’s perfect.” Fair enough statement. I haven’t met any perfect people either. Or have I?
How do we know that no one is perfect? Would we recognize [...]

The other day I stumbled upon a really interesting website called Yahoo! Answers. It’s been around awhile, sure, but it’s new to me. So I jumped into the ‘Religion and Spirituality’ section, and could not believe the amount of questions there. “Does God Exist?” “Can I fool Jesus if I pretend to [...]
