Recently, I heard some influencers (I’m not a fan of that term) mention a study. It showed that the most successful people share three traits. They had superiority complexes, high levels of insecurity, and strong impulse control. I'm not sure how scientific this finding is, but I suspect there is some truth to it. Think of some of the most worldly-successful people. A lot of them come across as egotistical, yet consistent in their work. But I got thinking about this in my own

Surrounded by incredible geology, Palisade Falls drops roughly one hundred feet. Many millions of years ago, volcanic activity in the west formed what is now Hyalite Canyon, just outside of modern-day Bozeman, Montana. Or was it millions of years? Was it, perhaps, only thousands? How can we know for sure? The debate over origins and ages has not diminished over the years, sadly. But one thing we can all know and agree on: we all have access to the same rocks. And the funny th

I'm not a fan of goodbyes. Then again, who is? Yet, the older we get, the more "goodbyes" there are to say. Some are easier than others. The death of a loved one is drastically more grievous than when a friend moves away. But in both cases, and all in between, we can feel the pull of eternity on our hearts; we begin to yearn for the day when there are no more goodbyes to be said. In my day job lately, I've had to say goodbye to several coworkers. When you develop good connect

It's hard to believe that it's already been a year since John MacArthur went to be with the Lord. But yesterday marked that occasion. In light of that reminder, I think it's most fitting to share this video from Grace To You. I hope you'll watch it and remember his ministry, but even more, remember God's grace poured out on us.

I was sad to hear yesterday that the actor Sam Neill had passed away at the age of 78. In all honesty, I wasn't familiar with most of his filmography, nor with much of his personal life. I knew he had battled cancer recently, but aside from that and a handful of movies, I didn't know much about the man. But I do know that he starred in one of my all-time favorite movies: Jurassic Park. Now, I know as a Christian, much of what's told us in the film regarding dinosaurs is untru

As we wrap up this week's content shares, we look back a week to the 4th of July. Many of us celebrated to one degree or another, being thankful for the great nation in which we live. But given the unfortunate state of our nation, can we really be patriotic, especially in a post-Christian America? How should we even view our nation anymore? Well, I hope this article from Answers in Genesis will help flesh that idea out a little, as we continue to live as Christians in this fa

Happy 250th birthday to the United States. It's amazing to think that, on one hand, this nation has survived for so long, yet in the grand scheme of things, it is still so young.

In light of the United States of America's 250th birthday tomorrow, I thought a "holiday" related post would be good. This article from Gotquestions.org answers the question of whether or not Christians should celebrate holidays. The summary points at the end, I think, are great, especially the 4th point. In short, if you're going to celebrate the 4th of July, and America's 250th (as I personally believe Americans ought to do, just my opinion), do so unto the Lord.

I wanted to share this short from Keith Foskey. Many people claim that Jesus never said He was God, but in this clip, we find that He absolutely is God, and says as much in so many words in John chapter 8. It's a powerful message, and one I hope will encourage your faith. If you have further questions, I would encourage you to check out this booklet over at Fortis Institute. It answers several questions about what the Bible actually says about Jesus.

As a kid, one of my favorite TV shows was Star Trek: The Next Generation. If you're familiar with the show, one of the main characters (and one of my favorites) was an android named Data. As the show progressed, Data strove to become more human-like, kind of like Pinocchio. Data eventually even acquired a special chip that gave human emotions. One particular episode that I recall involved a case where Data was on trial to defend the right to autonomy as an android. From a sci
