Some people believe questioning the Bible, the direction God is going, or even God himself, is blasphemy. Some think it’s a sign of disbelief. Daniel Thornton is one such man. He believes his son, Rusty Thornton, is lost without God and takes him to a faraway place in the early 1950s near Spicewood, Texas, where he would never come in contact with people. He has an old King James Version of the Bible and began to try and cure his son’s affliction of skepticism.

In offering this volume to teachers, my chief aim is to provide material for narration which shall deal, not with things temporal but with the “Eternal Verities”. These, if presented to our boys and girls in dramatic form, at the most impressionable period of their lives, will sink deeply into their minds. When presented in more direct and didactic fashion, the same truths often fail to impress. These stories of the Buddha are not for one age or one country, but for all time and for the world.

…God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did… (Romans 4:17, NKJV, emphasis added) God gives life! The Bible gives us ten instances of people being raised from the dead. Three instances in the Old Testament, and seven instances in the New Testament. Jesus gives joy and life wherever he goes. In the Old Testament, Elijah and Elisha each raised one person from the dead. There was even a dead man who came into contact with Elisha’s bones who came back to life. There are three instances of Jesus raising people from the dead in the New ...

I was raised Catholic. You can all bless me now. Surviving a Catholic upbringing is a lot like surviving a repetitive hurricane. Just when you think you’ve got enough protection from the danger someone (Usually my Mother) throws a curve ball of Catholic guilt at you and you’re stuck trying to remember if it is a sin or not, whether it requires a confession, and the amount of shame you should feel. It’s like dodging the hurricane all over again. Depression runs a rough shot in the Catholic religion and trust me, I know why. Happiness is frowned upon.

This includes, to a very great extent, the holidays and feasts of the Bible, which complement and enhance the Christian interpretation and ...
