Reflecting on Christmas
I’ve never looked so out of shape—fat, bloated, heavy in the middle, legs like tree stumps, arms like sewer pipes. The next minute, I faced an opposite set of problems: I looked like a ten-foot pole with big feet. My kids laughed, and we all had fun in the hall of mirrors at the county […]

The Immutability of God
The Immutability of God O Christ our Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place in all generations. As conies to their rock, so have we run to Thee for safety; as birds from their wanderings, so have we flown to Thee for peace. Chance and change are busy in our little world of nature and […]

Why I Believe

The question everyone is asking
The child, the philosopher, and the religionist have all one question: “What is God like?” This book is an attempt to answer that question. Yet at the outset I must acknowledge that it cannot be answered except to say that God is not like anything; that is, He is not exactly like anything or anybody. […]

The Wonder of Christmas
If you engage a typical American child below the age of, say, eight, and ask him what he would most like to know about Christmas, you might get an answer along these lines: “I wonder how Santa Claus carries enough toys in his sleigh for all the kids in the world.” “I wonder how Santa […]

The value of knowing God
All the problems of heaven and earth, though they were to confront us together and at once, would be nothing compared with the overwhelming problem of God: That He is; what He is like; and what we as moral beings must do about Him. The man who comes to a right belief about God is […]

Effective personal evangelism
Unfortunately, evangelism has a troubled image these days. It’s become a dirty word for Christians and non-Christians alike. Unbelievers disdain evangelism—often equating it with dogmatic legalists winning heavy-handed, judgmental, presumptuous, religious arguments. Being evangelized means being lectured—harangued really—in distasteful ways for everyone involved. At least that’s the popular, media-driven perspective. While most Christians don’t think […]
