Are All Televangelists Crooks?

Last updated on: November 17, 2010 at 5:30 am   By Tim

It’s no surprise that some people have a negative view of religious speakers who use television to engage their audience.  With stories of corruption and greed, it’s easy to see why people would write off all televangelists as crooks.  Yes, there are things that some televangelists do that bother me beyond belief (I’ll get to that in a minute).  However, television can be a great way to spread the Gospel – as long as it’s done in a way that... Read more

A Look Into Financial Fasting

Last updated on: November 16, 2010 at 5:30 am   By Tim

Why do Christians Fast? The Bible talks about fasting in both the New and Old Testaments. We read about Nehemiah fasting and praying for the children of Israel because they were in a time of trouble. Daniel fasted and prayed for three weeks drawing nearer to God. David fasted and prayed in a time of personal repentance. Paul and Barnabas fasted and prayed before presenting leaders in the church. There’s a close relationship between fasting and praying because fasting is... Read more

Imagine yourself as a farmer. You have one bag of seeds to produce a crop large enough to feed your family and hopefully have leftovers to sell for profit.

Book Review: Free to Choose

Last updated on: November 10, 2010 at 5:00 am   By Tim

I first read Free to Choose in February this year and absolutely loved the book. Milton Friedman and his wife Rose wrote Free to Choose in 1980 after the TV series produced by PBS also titled “Free to Choose.” The book is build on the 10 episodes that PBS aired in 1980, which was a great concept because it let the reader watch the special and read a chapter slow enough to understand it at their own pace. If you... Read more

The Key to Contentment

Last updated on: November 9, 2010 at 5:30 am   By Tim

Finding contentment in life is and should be an ongoing activity. For Christians, I believe we have an advantage in our quest for contentment because we are children of God and have an unmatched joy through Christ. But have you ever considered why we should be content? I like how the author of Hebrews puts it in chapter 13 verse 5 – Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God... Read more

12 Cheap Date Ideas

Last updated on: November 8, 2010 at 5:45 am   By Tim

I’m not convinced that a great date has to be expensive. My wife and I do a lot of things that don’t cost an arm and a leg, and we have a great time doing less expensive dates. If you’re on a tight budget, don’t let money keep you from enjoying a date with that ‘special someone.’ Take a look at these not-so-expensive date ideas and get inspired to go have fun without going broke. 1.
