Jarrod Jacobs: You Are In The Bible

We have 66 books in the Bible (39 Old Testament books, 27 New Testament books) to provide us with God’s guidance and establish and strengthen our faith (Rom. 10:17; Jude 3). Sadly, after 2000 years, some call the Bible “outdated,” “unrealistic,” and the like. Some folks wonder how we can make applications to our lives when using the Bible. Yet, as we study, it is clear that we can apply Scriptures to ourselves. We are in the Bible!

Jim Waters: More for taxpayers means more for government, too

Jim Waters

"However, no matter how much Frankfort spends on education or flood relief or most anything else, it will never be enough for Bailey. His proclivities – and those of his tax-and-spend political twin, Gov. Andy Beshear – for more government and the spending hikes to fund it are never satisfied."

Jarrod Jacobs: “God Be Merciful To Me A Sinner”

Our title is found in Luke 18:13. In this text; we read a parable the Lord spoke to those who “trusted in themselves that they were righteous and despised others” (Lk. 18:9). This parable was about a Pharisee and publican (tax collector) who went to the Temple to pray to God (Lk. 18:10-13). The Pharisee spoke to God as if bragging about his greatness, but the publican merely said, “God be merciful to me, a sinner.” Christ said that the publican was the one who was justified rather than the Pharisee (Lk. 18:14).

Andy Sullivan: Against the Grain

This week, I’ll look at a few of my favorite concert venues that are no more.  First up is Roberts Municipal Stadium.  Roberts Stadium was a multi-purpose arena in Evansville, Indiana for sports, public events and concerts, Built in 1956, it seated up to 12,732 spectators and featured four locker rooms and a press room.  On June 13, 1972, it hosted a concert by Elvis Presley.  He performed at Roberts for a second and final time October 24, 1976, breaking all existing attendance records by drawing a crowd of 13,500.

Summer in Maine is a beautiful sight. My recent first visit left me with the colorful impression of green scenery and coastal views. It shares similarities with nearby states while maintaining its uniqueness.
