Stories etc.

Where I'm Coming From

My personal story will help you understand who I am, and why I created this page.

 

Our Vision of the Great One

Was it a miraculous answer to people's prayers? Check out the pictures, then you decide?

 

A Problem of Hearing

A personal story of great joy, great loss, and a search for meaningful faith. Read it here.

 

The Path Across the Water

You've probably heard the old saying "Just when I think I can make ends meet, someone moves the ends!" Well, how do we find our way through life when it seems like the only thing constant is change? Here's a story that may give you some ideas . . .

 

Feet

What would it take to bring us all together? Do dirty feet keep us apart? This story may give you a new vision.

The Silence of the Demons

This one's kinda scary--I call it A short story about the day the devil got the hell scared out of him. Its imagery may seem a bit gothic, but it's definitely a story with a point! See for yourself...

What Lies Beyond . . .

OK, if The Silence of the Demons set your teeth to chattering a bit, try this one--an exploration of what happens to all those spirits after people die . . .

 

How I Decided Not to Be a Concert Pianist (and how you might decide what you really should be!)

This fun story may help you decide what to do next in your life. I wrote it many years ago, and recently shared it with my college-student son who hadn't decided on a major. Within a week he decided on his major and is loving studying with a clear goal in mind!

 

The meaning of New Years

If you ever feel like you just need to start over again in life, consider what the Bible says! You may be pleasantly surprised.

 

What Was the Christmas Star?

A planetary conjunction? A band of angels? A supernova? A planet? Consider the possibilities!

I've heard about Jesus for most of my life. A lot of what I heard didn't appeal to me. But lately, studying through the gospels again, I've discovered some fascinating new facets of His character.

The stories you'll find at Jesus Central may surprise you, some might even shock you. They're guaranteed to give you stimulating new insights into the message and mision of the the man known as Jesus of Nazareth. I hope they'll encourage you to make Jesus central in your life.

Explore the events and stories surrounding the birth of Jesus using an Interactive Timeline Chart!

Consider the recollections of those who were At the Cross. A complete reader's theater drama can be read at Jesus Central.

The story behind the story of the Woman at the Well is revealed in a section on Samaritan History

Other Interests

The New Age movement and Christianity

For starters, you can read a couple of articles I did for Ministry magazine in about 1989

Oh, boy, have I written a few pieces on this. Did years of research, wrote 3 books, piles of magazine articles. Now they're mostly gathering dust, so I'll put more materials here soon. Also, check out the Books I've Written section for samples from my books on the subject

Prophecy

I'll be posting some links here...someday. In the meantime, have you heard about the prophecies in the book The Bible Code? Before you get too excited, please read the article I wrote for Signs of the Times magazine (published in the March, 1998 issue) about the book and its claims.

Bible Study

Have you noticed that it's difficult to understand some parts of the Bible if you don't know the history behind the stories? I was always frustrated by that too, until I created a colorful, easy-to-use set of Bible Timeline Charts. They've helped me understand the Bible like never before, and they bring history into focus too, by showing its relationship to the Bible stories. Others find the charts useful too, so now I sell them on the Internet. You can see and order the charts at http://www.biblelights.com Even if you don't want the charts, there's a wealth of information available in the index to the charts. You can download the index from the Bible Lights page for free, and even get a free chart via e-mail!

Archaeology

Links related to this topic are found near the bottom of the Bible Lights Publishing page as related links.

History

This goes with my interest in Bible Study. My Bible Timeline Charts have really helped me to understand the relationships between events in world history and the Bible.

UFOs

Got some good stories on this subject too. Tell me if you'd like this section to get priority in site development.

Writing

Yup, you guessed it, I'm a professional writer and editor. I'll put my links here one of these days, at your request.

Science and the Bible

An area of special interest that I've written magazine articles about. I hope to put some of them here soon.

How to get rid of canker sores

Canker sores used to make my life miserable on a regular basis. But not anymore. Read how I got rid of them. It's simple, and may work for you, too!
