Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone’s here
Everybody’s watching you now
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

I have six copies of God’s Word at home. How many do you have? We’re so blessed to have a variety of translations, paraphrases, and study books all at our disposal. We can turn on the radio and the TV and hear the Bible. We can listen to it on tape in our cars. We have every access to the Word of God. But most believers around the world don’t have this access. Bibles aren’t available in their language, or they can’t afford one. Sometimes, over 100 people share a single Bible. I don’t have to share my Bible, or wait for my copy, or take home a page to study.

Robert W. Cole - Bible League

We recently had the privilege of chatting with comedian Bob Nelson. Among other things, he talked about how he got started in comedy, his first appearance on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson, and the impact that Red Skelton had on him and his comedy.

Study Will Test Stem Cell Therapy on Human Hearts

Why exactly is it that scientists (substitute “activists”) keep insisting on newborn stem cells when adult stem cell research is the only research yielding results ? I have a couple of suggestions:

- Christopher Reeves
- Activists hate being wrong, it invalidates that which they’ve sacrificed so much of their lives to.
- Abortion rights activists are salivating over the validation this offers to their reasoning
- Biased media coverage
- Political momentum for elections
