This is me on Saturday, here in Detroit, trying out for the job of Jason Hanson’s holder. Between the 2 of us, Jason and I have scored nearly 2,000 points and a record number of field goals of 50 yards or more in NFL history, with several items in the NFL Hall of Fame.
The presidential candidacies of Mitt Romney and Jon Huntsman have raised again the “Mormon question.” A pastor’s comment about Mormonism being a cult generated a tornado of media reaction.
In this 8-1/2 minute video from last year's Clarus Conference, my friend Wayne Grudem and I share about what is encouraging and what is discouraging about the American church.
I’ve never been to Heaven, yet I miss it. Eden’s in my blood. The best things of life are souvenirs from Eden, appetizers of the New Earth. There are just enough of them to keep us going but never enough to make us satisfied with the world as it is or ourselves as we are.
