Here’s another question from one of my readers. I’m always humbled by the trust people have in me. Question: How Do You Find Your Soulmate? Answer: Pat, First off I’m not a relationship expert, as my wife of 16 years will likely attest. Still I want to share with you some of what I’ve learned in the area. My wife’s grandma told her to write down all the things she wanted in a future spouse and put them in her [...] Read more »
The children of Israel entering the promised land in Numbers 13 – 14 were worried about what was ahead of them. They feared the giants in the land. They didn’t know how they were going to obey and so they chose to complain. Now don’t be so self-righteous. You and I do the same thing. Well, maybe you don’t. It could be I’m the only person in the world who can, at times, completely understand the children of Israel wondering [...] Read more »
I love answering questions people ask me on this blog or on Twitter. I’m not saying I have the full or complete answer ever, but I do know I have more questions than most people have time to think about. A few days ago, someone asked me this on Twitter.

This is just too cool. It’s a visualization of world religious history. Can’t wait to see more people come into a personal relationship with our loving God. I had someone call me today to ask my help publishing a “spiritual book”, when I asked what it was about I was told, “it’s religion without God.” I didn’t mean to laugh, but I couldn’t help it. Who would really want anything to do with religion… especially if it’s without God? I [...] Read more »
Truth: We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters. If someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need but shows no compassion–how can God’s love be in that person? Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions. Our actions will show that [...] Read more »
Truth: I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But its death will produce many new kernels–a plentiful harvest of new lives. Those who love their life in this world will lose it. Those who care nothing for their life in this world will keep it for eternity. John 12:24-25 (New Living Translation) Thought: The seed needs to die before it has any potential. Many times when we [...] Read more »
Truth: Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects,always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (New International Version) Thought: Love is the antidote to negativity. How can you act in love and [...] Read more »
