The Benefits of Work
Human beings were created in the image of God. He is the Creator, and, therefore, we are designed to be creators in our own sphere. We are built to be industrious, creative, builders, designers, and workers!

How to Find a Mental Health Provider
This week, I received an email with this question: “How can I find a counselor in my area that reasons and believes as I do?” I am often asked to recommend a counselor, therapist, or psychiatrist for people living in various locations throughout the country.

David and the Showbread vs. Uzzah and the Ark
Have you ever wondered why David was able to take and eat the showbread in the holy sanctuary and nothing happened to him, but when Uzzah touched the Ark of the Covenant, he died? Have you ever had a pastor use the story of Uzzah to promote the idea that if you disobey God, He will punish you and strike you dead? It can all seem a bit arbitrary.

Dlaczego Bóg kazał Abrahamowi zabić Izaaka?
Grzech sprawił, że każdy jest zarażony egoizmem i instynktownie działa we własnym interesie. A jednak Bóg nie pozostawia nas samym sobie. Wzywa każdego z nas do pełnego uzdrowienia – do zbawienia. Ci, którzy odpowiadają na Jego wezwanie z ufnością, otwierają serce w wierze, a Duch Święty zamieszkuje w nich i obdarza nowymi motywacjami: miłością, dobrocią i uczciwością.

Why Did God Tell Abraham to Kill Isaac?
Have you ever wondered why God instructed Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac? People who believe that God’s law functions no differently than human law—imposed rules that require the government to punish rule breakers—often suggest that this story proves that God requires a legal payment of human blood to pay for our sins.

Suicide and the Myth of Lost Salvation
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 13 out of every 100,000 people will die by suicide. Most people have been impacted by this tragedy in one way or another, including me. Several years ago, after the death of his wife of fifty years, my great uncle ended his own life; he was simply unable to cope with the heartache, pain, and loneliness.

What Is Biblical Justice?
Have you ever longed for justice? Perhaps a burglar broke out your car window and stole the newly installed radio from your car. Or maybe somebody cruelly harmed your loved one. Whatever happened, you hoped that the perp would be found so that he could “face the courts of justice.”

Is God Punishing the World with Natural Disasters?
Over the past several weeks, the news has been dominated by natural disaster after natural disaster—the horrifying Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria; the devastating earthquake in Mexico; the unrelenting fires in the Northwest. Naturally, people are asking questions—What is happening?

Should Christians Observe the OT Feast Days?
It is the holiday season and I just received this email about Bible holy-days (holidays): I recently watched the “God and your brain” seminar DVD. It was very informative and I want to thank you for putting together such insightful information. During the seminar the topic of God’s Law came up, and I’m wondering if you could clarify your thoughts on whether Christians should observe the 7th day Sabbath, and the Feasts (Passover, ULB, shavuot, tabernacles, etc.). Thank you in advance for sharing your thoughts.
