The Family Bible
In a lot of homes, I see a family Bible. In days past, this Bible contained records of marriages, births, and other important dates and events. Maybe yours still does.
But what condition is your family Bible in? Does it still crack a bit when you open it, even though it’s 100 years old? The idea of putting these important dates in the Bible is to keep them at your fingertips, because the Bible is to be the center of the family, but what if the Bible falls into disuse? What happens to the people whose names are written in the front pages of it? read more »
Was God at Virginia Tech?
When tragedies happen like the shooting at Virginia Tech University yesterday, many people often ask, “Where was God? Why did He allow this to happen?”

Tonight, I watched a fascinating show on the Discovery Channel: T-Rex: New Science, New Beast. As a dinosaur junkie, I really enjoyed this show, showing how new technology allows us to determine more about these amazing animals, like how fast they coul…

Some pastors, when preaching about human sin and God’s salvation, say, “We” and “Us”. “We are sinners.” “Jesus died for us.” Others replace those pronouns with “You.” Why the difference? read more »

Today is the Today I’ve been waiting for, and I have to say that, while I’ll disagree with the way it was handled, I’m impressed and didn’t expect it to be handled as well as it was. Kudos, Today Show. read more »

The differences between Judaism and Islam, to my Christian ears, seem insignificant. In The Today Show‘s episode, “How Muslims view the afterlife,” we learn that you don’t have to be a Muslim to get to a good afterlife, paradise. You just have to be a good person, and God willing, that’ll do it. read more »

The end of Ramadan
As Ramadan comes to a close, let’s look back at what Ramadan means to the world. The media is trying to determine whether the end of the month means more violent acts or less by militant Muslims.
Contrast this with Christmas and Easter, which besides a…
Gay Animals?
A recent news article here at CrossFeed speaks of a museum taking political sides to “prove” that homosexuality is completely natural. Many animals demonstrate homosexual behavior, so it must be good and natural, just like murder, eating your children,…

VeggieTales, the popular Christian children’s show, is now, finally, on TV. They’ve always billed themselves as “Sunday Morning Values & Saturday Morning Fun” Well, they now have Saturday Morning fun because they’re on NBS every Saturday, including…

Thanks to a free download from iTunes, my wife and I have started watching the ABC Family series, 3 Moons over Milford. It’s entertaining and insightful. The premise is that an asteroid split the moon into 3 big chunks (and some smaller ones), and it’s…

A new study finds that Baby Brains are wired for math. They found that a baby already has a decent concept of basic mathematics, identical to an adult human brain. Given that this is already true in infants, we can assume the same is true for at least …
