I like to study the Bible because I love the Lord, and His word has great value to me personally. But I have to be honest: I also study it because it is fun. Not only does the text show divine inspiration on a surface level, but also in very deep mysteries that show the hand of an intelligence far greater than man’s.
One example that people heard a lot of in the 1980’s was Equidistant Letter Spacing (ELS), often called the Bible Code. The original Hebrew text was written as a string of consonants, without the chapter and paragraph …
As you may know from my biography, I used to be an executive at one of the world’s largest corporations. And as you can tell from my posts, I’m a bit of a science geek. So how am I going to tie these two disparate thoughts together? Well, a few years ago, I was late for a meeting. The man I was meeting was my friend’s father, and he began to upbraid me for my tardiness. Truth be told, he wouldn’t have gone after me about it if it weren’t for the family friendship. I decided to have a little …
You may have guessed by now, I’m a total science nerd. The type who used to buy science magazines to read about the latest thoughts in string theory. So you can imagine my excitement about NASA’s recent announcement about the discovery of not one, but SEVEN, rocky planets around a neighboring star.…
In my last blog, I talked a bit about the scandalous goings-on in the Vatican duri
ng the 1980s that influenced my depiction of events in the This Generation Series. And I thought in this blog, maybe we could take a bit of time to discuss a relatively unknown figure from that time, Pope John Paul I, Albino Luciani.…
I have long said that my favorite aspect of my books is the characters. When I am in writing mode, I awaken in the morning wondering what new and fun thing these people will bring to my life that day. In Penance, which takes place in our near future, the thrill comes solely from the antics of fictional characters. But in Precipice and Pentecost, some of the fun came from the ability to put the fictional characters into the sphere of influence of historical figures.…
What would you think if a scientist declared that an ancient civilization on Mars had died at the hands of nuclear destruction? On the face of it, the concept seems inconceivable. Yet a physicist named Dr. John Brandenburg is claiming just such an occurrence around 200 million years ago on the Red Planet.…
With the inauguration around the corner and the celebration of the three wise men in the rear-view mirror, I thought it might be fun to take a deeper look into an ancient inauguration. It’s an interesting story that goes the whole way back to the story of Daniel, somewhere around 580 BC.…
So, now it’s time for me to rant a bit. For the past few years, I’ve been watching what I can only term a disrespectful attitude toward Christianity in shows, songs, and advertising. I know what you are thinking: This is nothing new. It has been around since the Elmer Gantry character was created. And you are right. The Elmer Gantry figure, the Church Lady from SNL, and abusive nuns, priests, and pastors in film and television are a part of our culture. It is our nature to call out hypocrisy—and if any of you has …
This is a short rendering of a tale about a man named Albert Pike (1809-1891)who wrote in detail about a dream/vision he had in a letter to his friend, Giuseppe Mazzini (1805-1872).
A little bit about the correspondents before we get to the vision: Pike was a renowned genius in his day and Harvard educated. He was a 33rd Degree Mason and grand master of a Luciferian organization called the Order of Palladium. Pike had a strongly philosophical nature and seemed to like biting the hand that fed him—hence, this Bostonian became a Confederate Brigadier General in the …
I was at a family gathering this past week, and the subject of the election came up. Not a very good thing when a group is divided between hard-core democrats and republicans. Despite the obvious leanings of certain family members, there was one consistent theme: What a horrible choice! With nearly 320 million people in the United States, we are stuck with the clownish behavior of Trump or the decades-long Clinton baggage.
I won’t lie to you. I found myself getting upset during the conversation. Either candidate carries incredible risk. In the long run, it may come 
down to …
