EV Tips: Go Armless!

Friday, October 5th, 2007

What should you do when you hand someone a Gospel tract, they read it, then hurriedly hand it back in disgust? Ray Comfort suggests that you go armless.

Postage-Paid Preaching

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

I hate those credit card applications that come in the mail. I get lots of them— three, five, six or more in a week! What can a consumer who wants to stay debt free do? I’ve called the “Do Not Mail” list to no avail—Visa and Mastercard and American Express just keep on sending more.

Did Nothing… and Something

Monday, October 1st, 2007

The stated goal on my short vacation was “Do nothing,” (at the suggestion of my beautiful wife). It was sound advice. So while I was at the monastery, I did nothing but read, rest, and spend lots of time with God—it was probably the best time I ever had with Him! Still, He opened a [...]
