‘So Easy a Caveman Can Do It’
Off the charts with popularity, the Geico ad campaigns make everyone chuckle. My favorite is the caveman series, “So Easy a Caveman Can Do It.” Hebrew, one of the most ancient languages on the planet, is so easy a caveman can speak it. In fact, maybe they did.
Knowing God’s Goodness
A very dear friend of mine lost her 12-year-old son in a fire a few years ago. It was heartwrenching, and we all mourned and grieved with the family. About three months after her son’s death, we were in Rome, Italy, for a prayer initiative with a group of people. One morning, we circled up…
Good-Bye Harvey Korman
Honestly, I had not thought about Harvey Korman, of the Carol Burnett Show, for years until I read that he just died at age 81. I spent many happy hours at home watching the funny skits of the Carol Burnett Show on television. The world was a simpler place then. This evening I watched a few of their…

Dennis Prager… who is no fool… When I was a Bible school student at Christ for the Nations in Dallas some years ago, I had an Israeli friend who called herself an “atheist.” We had many long talks about “God,” “Jesus,” and the Bible. I will never forget once riding a ski lift in Winterpark, Colorado,…
William F. Buckley and the Jews
William F. Buckley Jr. once said, “In my own experience anti-Semitism is not a communicable disease.” John B. Judis in his biography William F. Buckley Jr.: Patron Saint of the Conservatives states that Buckley grew up with attitudes of Jewish hatred in his home. Later in life, Buckley learned that “anti-Semitism is not a communicable disease” through his own…
What Happened to that Little Girl?
Last evening, we ate dinner with a lovely Italian family from our church. I especially say Italian, because they are proud of their ethnicity; and I am fascinated by it as well. We have known them for many years. They have five bright children; and their parents, in their 80’s, live with them a few months…
