I am working on a project.
Would you do me a huge favor and fill out a brief survey? Your answers will help influence the direction of the project! It should take you 4 or 5 minutes and would help me out a lot.
Your responses will be completely confidential
Have you ever said, “That person really motivates me?” Maybe you read a book or an article, or maybe attended a meeting, and as a result, felt inspired to take action. Does what you hear, see or read motivate you, or do we motivate ourselves?
Certainly others inspire us and get us to consider possibilities. That has certainly been the case in my life over the years. But no one takes any action without
There’s the past. There’s the future. And then, there’s right now, the present.
We can look back at our past and wish we would have done things differently, or think about the future and say what we’re going to do, but the present is the only time we can do anything. Seize the moment, for this moment will soon be the past.
I can look back on my past and certainly see things I would do differently today. But once I’ve learned the lesson, I choose to
You can find me on Facebook, but I must confess, I don’t spend much time there. When I do access the site, I comment on something once and awhile, and I add a few “likes.” Occasionally I post something, but not that often. I do enjoy seeing some of the pictures and witty things that others post.
I Was Unfriended
But awhile back I noticed I hadn’t seen someone’s posts that were usually there on a regular basis. I almost always
Some think if Jesus was here today, everybody would believe God’s Word.
Really? In this short one minute video, find out if it’s up to Jesus, or, if it’s up to you.
Enjoy the video!

Awhile back, someone came up with the phrase, “What would Jesus do?”. The intention I believe was to inspire Christians to follow his example in their own lives. My question is, what did Jesus think about the written Scriptures; what was his opinion?
Today, most everyone, Christians and non-Christians alike, have an opinion about
Are you having a tough time forgiving someone? It’s easy to say, “Oh yes, I forgive him,” but if you’re still bitter and agry, then you haven’t forgiven them.
Too often people do not forgive because they think forgiveness is letting someone get away with something.
Last weekend I was at Camp MiVoden on Hayden Lake, in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.
A group of us from 6 or 7 states gathered for a Winter Advance.
It was a terrific location. The weather was great. The fellowship was sweet.
And, the Word of God taught was really, really good. I posted some of my “take aways” on Facebook.
What Phase Are You Going Through?
The theme was
From the Category, “The Eastern Eye”
[The Bible is an “Eastern” book. It was written many years ago in the “East” which today we refer to as “The Middle East.” As such, there are many customs and idioms that are not familiar to the “Western” mind.
In understanding the Scriptures it is important for us to understand the culture, but it doesn’t mean that we should necessarily follow that culture. Rather, it is in the understanding of the Eastern culture that we gain light and understanding about many things in the Bible.]
Without an understanding of eastern customs, the meaning of a record in Matthew 25 about the five wise and five foolish virgins is

I thought it might be helpful to offer a brief explanation of parables, since many times parables are used in discussions here in the Eastern Eye category. Just like it is important to understand customs, idioms and manners of Bible times, it is also important to understand parables.
A number of years ago someone got rather upset with me
