That doesn’t mean we can easily afford to live where we choose but we are free to pursue life in another neighborhood if we want to work toward such a move.  We change our lives if we have the desire and the willpower. People make choices every day regarding health, habits, and lifestyles. Some choose to develop themselves further and strive…

The great spectacle of God’s creation: Part 1 of 3

Dear Editor,                    Although Mankind will never see the full extent and splendor of the spectacle of God’s great creations, nevertheless, He created everything on, and in, Heaven and Earth, seen and unseen!   From the dust of the Earth, which He spoke into being, He created and formed Adam, in God’s image. He turned Adam into flesh, with trillions of cells, then He breathed a spirit/soul into him, and “man became a living soul.” A full-grown Man.   God put Adam to sleep, removed a rib, then formed Eve, a woman, and gave her a spirit/soul, and she became Adam’s wife. Adam and Eve…

In this corner

Many pastors lament the absence of a certain demographic in church, namely people in their twenties and thirties. For a variety of reasons, this age group has largely checked-out of the local church and is likely to stay checked-out for a lifetime unless something changes.  In a recent study conducted by Lifeway Research, young adults reported at least four categories for lessened church attendance: 1. Life changes; 2. Church or pastor-related reasons; 3.  Religious, ethical, or political beliefs; 4. Student and youth ministry reasons. It seems that the church has been unsuccessful in helping individuals transition from adolescence to adulthood….

Addressing the destruction of America

Dear Editor, I realize this is conservative territory, but if my liberal (not communistic, there is a difference) slanted letters are causing those on the right to question policies on both sides of the aisle, then this fulfills my intention and should be viewed as a good thing. However, my greatest realization and concern for America is the fact that one person, back by millions, almost brought about the demise of our great democracy. Not only that, but handed China and Russia the gift of knowing just how fragile our democracy actually is. I want to thank The Standard for…
