Everything.
Absolutely everything is going to be affected by the concepts outlined in this video. Hat tip to Ron McMenamy for sending this one to me.
A good friend today used terminology like “fault lines” and “tectonic plates” when referring to what’s becoming visible and starting to creak like the timbers of an old ship.

First of all, I want to say “Thank you” to all of our faithful subscribers. It’s always great to hear from you with your thoughts and responses to the articles we post. (I hear back from you individually, but I haven’t quite gotten everybody trained to use the “comments” on the blog site!)

It’s been a little long since our last post, and I’m challenged this morning about writing more frequently. In part, the challenge comes from a passage I read this morning:
Wealth created by a lying tongue is a vanishing mist and a deadly trap. Proverbs 21:6 (NLT)
This passionately stirred me up today.
In business, we as [...]
How authentic is our faith?
In a report from the Baptist Press last week, word of 4 Christian believers in North Korea being executed for their faith has reached us. Their crimes? Carrying New Testaments or talking about their beliefs.
North Korea is widely known to be unfriendly to religious freedom. In some ways, this story is [...]

That people may know skillful and godly Wisdom…and receive instruction in wise dealing and the discipline of wise thoughtfulness, righteousness, justice, and integrity…. Proverbs 1:2-3 (AMP)

Today’s Proverb is all about being practical. Here’s some fun from it:
Many a man proclaims his own loving-kindness and goodness, but a faithful man who can find? Proverbs 20:6 (AMP)
This one has always scared me a bit. Okay… maybe a lot. It’s easy for any of us to talk about how good [...]
Jon, the Baptist (yes, that’s what he calls himself) pointed out an excellent article in the Wall Street Journal recently about executives who are relying upon overtly Biblical principles to manage. I located a free (no subscription to WSJ required) copy of the story here. WSJ’s Phred Dvorak does a nice job of [...]
