Hush Your Mouth Pt. 1

Gossip is something that has affected all of our lives in one way or another. We’ve listened to it, spread it, and been victims of it.

Can We Find God?

What one means by finding God depends on one's concept of God, which varies from person to person. To search for an object or a person is one thing and to search for an idea or concept is something else.

Riddles About Somebody's Death

Maybe, yes, we all die a little every day, but at least, those little deaths are nothing dramatic; just a bad hair day, a broken tooth, a night of heavy drinking that decimated thousands of your neurons.

We only understand the word in part because all we see is the tip of the iceberg-like meaning. The deeper meaning is far below the surface and much larger than we may realize. Who is an author?

Christians Endure and Survive Because of Hope

One summer day my family was lazily floating in individual inner tubes down the Clearwater River. It was the perfect day and the perfect time, and the slow moving river would offer a little excitement every once in a while with a tiny rapid or two.
