The entire Bible is the revelation of God to mankind. It’s tells us what God is like. It tells us the story of the creation of man, his fall, his need of God, and God’s solution. God didn’t give us the entire Bible all at once, but as mankind grew, God revealed more about Himself …
Omof’s face winced as he glanced through the list of ingredients: “Eye of blackorb, bakkar berry, petal of dream flower, Tayark bark! Tayark bark! I knew I’d forgot somethin’”, he snarled as he turned and put the list next to the large handcrafted wooden bowl on the workbench behind him. His lab was small and …
My fascination with science fiction started when I was six—I’ll never forget the excitement I felt as I watched X-wings and TIE fighters scream across the screen, followed by the roar of engines and blaster bolts exploding against the cold metal. I wish I still had my Luke Skywalker and Momaw Nadon action figures. They …
If you’re unfamiliar with the term “World Building” you might get a mental image of huge machines covering the surface of a dead planet carving rivers, planting forests, and pumping oxygen into the atmosphere. Truth is—that’s not far from reality, but for writers its a bit different. World building is the art of bringing to …
Mark and Ashley were excited about the swimming pool ad in the Sunday paper. The summer was unbearably hot, and a new pool was way out of their budget. It was listed as four foot deep, fifteen foot diameter, and $200. It was perfect. It was cheap. They just had to get there before anybody …

Quinn was older and a bit reserved, but Cooper usually spoke up about anything and everything, especially things that troubled …
The identity of Magog is hotly debated among prophecy students. The first couple of mentions (Gen 10:2, 1 Chr 1:5) in the Bible speak of a person, the son of Japheth, the son of Noah.

I choose God because it’s a logically plausible choice that I feel with my emotions and believe with my faith. I do not chose my faith in God because it gives me hope…but I can say there is an amazing hope in my faith in God and the Bible. I believe there is life after death, and what I do in this life affects the next. I have a hope that in the next life, I will see some of those I knew in this life. I have a hope that by passing on this hope to others that they too will enter the next life. With my faith in God I feel that I have a purpose. And that purpose is to help others find this hope. And that purpose will affect the lives of others for eternity.
Your mind is built on the idea of complexities and predicting events of the future. If someone throws you a ball, your brain will work very quickly to understand the physics of that object as it floats through the air in an arch towards your hand. You have seen this pattern before and likely practiced …
