Straight From The Horse’s Mouth
This oft repeated idiom correctly points out that you are most likely to get the truth – or at least a more accurate version of the event in question – if your information comes from a direct source. In the arena of racetracks, jockeys, and large wagers, it doesn’t get much more direct than the horse himself! In the province of Protestant…

Inconceivable! The Ongoing Dissolution of the Christian Faith
Only 500 years ago it would have been absolutely inconceivable to think of any individual Christian simply going out and creating their own church.

A church created by someone else 1,500 years…
The Marks of the Church
The Church which Christ established has no name other than that of its founder. It is known simply by His name and that of His followers; it is known solely by the name of Christian. While it has no “denominational” name to identify it, it does possess identifying marks. Historically and Scripturally there have been four marks by which the…

So, a lot has been happening. Allow me to sum up… — 1 — Last week I was contacted by a producer from Seize the Day on the Catholic Channel Sirius/XM 129.
