Welcome to From Doc’s Desk, where we talk about faith, life, leadership and occasionally a few things we’re probably not supposed to talk about!
The bible teaches that we are to be in this world, but not part of it. Our place, our “home” is really in heaven. We are just here for a span of time; or as the book of James says, “even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.” (James 4:14) […]
How is it possible that violent crime in the United States has surged by more than 460 percent since 1960? The answer is as painful as it is simple: the further the Americans (and the rest of the world for that matter) turn away from God, the further they drive Him out of their society, […]
The problem with our North American culture is that we have our priorities wrong.
