    Occasionally I watch "Wheel of Fortune," perhaps one of the longest, if not THE longest running game show in television history. If you happen to watch the program you know that each round features a puzzle that focuses upon some theme that is designed to give a clue as to the answer. The theme may feature names of famous people, places, or things. One theme is "before and after." Just to give you ...

    Political correctness remains the engine that drives the effort of liberals to reshape society. "Change" is the buzzword that may presently get politicians elected, but it is not the kind of change that most sensible and morally conscience people desire. In the 1960's the "hippie" generation (which is simply another way of saying the "baby boomers" grown up into young adults) exploited the affluent status of the post World ...

    For slightly more than one year the Handley church of Christ has placed an article in the Meadowbrook News advertizing our services, location, and focusing on a wide variety of subject matter. Attempting to develop a lengthy discussion on any particular subject is futile in what limited space we were allotted. So, I would occasionally write two or more articles on one particular topic and run these in a series. The Meadowbrook News is not the only paper in which ...

    January 22, 1973 (Roe v. Wade) is the darkest day in the history of the United States. On this day the U.S. Supreme Court made the unconstitutional ruling that killing an unborn baby is an act protected by the Constitution of the United States. It ruled that any woman who wants to kill her alive but unborn baby may do so whenever and however she decides. Since then 23% of all babies in this country are killed before they ever see the light of day. The total of murdered ...

    Senator John Boehner used this analogy some months back when referring to attempts to "negotiate" with the President and his staff in matters concerning the economy, taxes, and balancing the budget. More precisely the Speaker of the House pointed out, "Dealing with them the last couple months has been like dealing with Jell-o," Boehner said. "Some days it's firmer than others. Sometimes it's like they've left it out over night." I have ...

    Over the years, it has been my pleasure to worship with many brothers and sisters in many different locations in the United States. If I asked someone to visit these congregations and describe them to me in two words or less, there would no doubt be a great variety of descriptive terms. Some of these terms would likely be: Liberal, charismatic, institutional, non-institutional, fundamental, one-cupper, mainstream, non-cooperative, Holy Roller, legalistic, anti, instrumental, non-instrumental, ...

    Recently, a good friend of mine gifted a book to me called “Slave”. The book is written by John MacArthur. Though it ultimately contains a Calvinist flavor which is a sorely faulty doctrine, the information and viewpoint the book has to offer on the chosen slavery of Christians is exceptional. I highly recommend the book. However, the purpose of this article is not to provide a book review. The objective is to demonstrate how the corruption of slavery has abounded in ...

    By Tom Wacaster
    I am sure that all of us have, at one time or another, had someone jokingly say, “You can’t get there from here.” Uncertain as to the ability of someone to grasp directions, we first seek to put them in a position where the instructions are simple and easy to follow. Take for example the story of a salesman who was seeking to locate a family who had requested someone to contact them regarding a sale or delivery. The

    Humanism focuses attention on self; it is the core of our modern day corruption and rejection of all that is good and right. It dethrones God and puts the supreme importance on man. Priority is given to how one “feels” rather than a “thus saith the Lord.” Some years ago a local radio station was fond of proclaiming, “Making you feel good, because feeling good is what it is all about.”

    “Moderates in the Church” by Jeff Grimes

    Those of us who watch the cable news channels, or the network news broadcast often here the word “moderate” used. The political pundits are especially fond of labeling certain politicians as “moderate.” A moderate politician's speeches will be spoken in such a way as not to offend either those on the “right”, or those on the “left.” He never takes a stand on any particular issue; after all, he is seeking votes. He is interested in his approval ...
