Welcome to a series on How to Stop Being Afraid with wisdom from Psalm 46. Our quest continues to step two in the journey to learn How to Stop Being Afraid.

Will the Hobbit Inspire Your Own Unexpected Journey?

Last updated on: January 16, 2013 at 4:00 pm By Bill Blankschaen

I confess it. I think I may be the only person left who has not seen Peter Jackson’s latest rendition of J.R.R. Tolkien’s classic tale The Hobbit. Usually I would be among the first at the theater. I made the midnight showing for The Return of the King — the sound cutting out during the scenes in Mount Doom made it especially memorable. I’ve watched the DVD versions of The Lord of the Rings countless times with my children. I’ve... Read more

America’s Founders on Gun Control and the Evil at Sandy Hook

Last updated on: January 16, 2013 at 6:57 am By Bill Blankschaen

Parenting Fail: What’s In Your Blind Spot?

Last updated on: January 13, 2013 at 2:46 pm By Bill Blankschaen

As much as I like my car, I must agree with my wife — it does have a few blind spots. Backing up can be tricky. The narrow side windows and raised rear of the vehicle make it a challenge to see what’s behind me. Or beside me. I nearly sideswiped a fellow traveler last week on a rainy freeway because of it. Fail. I think I can fix it with a couple of those wide-angle mirror attachments. But until... Read more
