My wife and I have lived with the American military community in S. Korea for the past 2 1/2 years. One of the interesting differences with Korean churches is that most have an early (5am) morning prayer service – every day. My wife and I began joining in with the nearest church some time ago, […]

Trapped!
A special evening from my tenth year still remains clear in my memory. It was one of the nights of a “gospel meeting” at Highland Church of Christ, my home church. I responded to the invitation, was baptized and gave my life to Jesus. This was to influence me the rest of my life. Some […]
Message To Those Caught In Ashley Madison from a former adulterer, Part 2
I wasn’t buying the magazine anymore or even picking them in the store and rarely messed up on the computer. And yet it was not enough, I still lusted in stores, on the street and in the gym. I tried a new technique, “bouncing my eyes” but its effect was pretty limited, at least for […]
