I’ll reserve any opinions on America’s operations in Iraq . . . but the link to Joe’s article below is provided in the interest of fairness as he is sharing a viewpoint on what is going on in Iraq that is virtually nonexistent in the mainstream media.

I am setting in my office; looking out on a beautiful seven acres that is lightly dusted with snow. As much as I like Spring and Summer, the scene is too beautiful not to enjoy. The space heater under my desk is making this blast of frigid air more tolerable.

I keep track of several sources of news. I begin the day with NPR. I check GoogleNews a few times. I check out what’s up on talk radio. I watch the first few minutes of the evening news casts. I saw something last night on the CBS Evening News that I had never seen or [...]

A couple of Sundays ago I got my tongue tied and referred to the great British social reformer William Wilberforce as Wilber Wilberforce. When I saw the movie Amazing Grace this past Sunday, I was pleased to find out that many of Wilberforce’s close friends called him “Wilber” for short.
The movie is worth seeing and, it [...]
A Cross in Baghdad

I have been wondering exactly how Jesus would respond to the war in Iraq. Would he be protesting outside of the White House? Would he be on the inside of the Pentagon working policy? Would he be a diplomat jetting in and out of Baghdad on secret missions?
