Blue Mountain Learning

The beautiful Blue Mountains in New South Wales

While camping with friends in Australia’s Blue Mountains west of Sydney, I was intrigued by the beautiful rock formations and miles of scenic forests. The many oil-bearing eucalyptus trees fill the local atmosphere with finely dispersed droplets of oil and combine with dust particles and water vapor to yield a rich blue color across the landscape.

During our first visit there, we went horseback riding in Gosford. On another occasion, we returned to the Blue Mountains for  a weekend to get to know each other better, study the Bible, and enjoy the local sites. I learned a few life-and-death lessons there.

The dome of Sacred Heart Church in Festus, Missouri.

Growing up in Festus, Missouri, I attended Sacred Heart Church. There, in the vaulted dome above me each week, I saw a mural with three main characters: an old man with a long white beard, a younger looking man, and a dove inside of a triangle.

We Can Trust God’s Word, Part 2

With God’s Word, we are fully equipped

Part 1 showed how God gave revelation to holy men of God to write down what we have as the Bible today. We saw that prophets, including Moses, Joshua, Samuel, Ezra and Nehemiah, David, and Solomon, made known what God wanted them to. Part 2 will show how we got the other books of the Bible from our heavenly Father, and how we can trust His Word for a sound, true foundation in our lives.

We Can Trust God’s Word, Part 1

As I leaned over the side of the Pedro’s Plaza Building in downtown Agana, I realized that the only thing holding me up from a seven-story plummet to the concrete sidewalk beneath was the rope around my waist. Being a reporter with the Pacific Daily News, I loved getting directly involved with a story. The Guam Police Department allowed me to join their S.W.A.T. team for a practice exercise down the side of the building.

It was never difficult for me to love my Dad. Since I can remember, he and my Mom loved me and provided everything that I needed.

I once worked on a team of four studio camera operators. Each of us had a different angle and emphasis on our subject, usually a person speaking on stage. Back in the tech room, the director had a large computer screen that showed all four camera views at once.
