CULTURE WAR
It’s quite apparent that the Western World and its apex–the United States of America–is engaged in a cultural civil war. I have written numerous pieces on this subject and was among the first to call attention to the fragile state of Western Civilization. Most civil wars aren’t quick–they take years to play out and only…

I was enjoying my daily Bible reading recently when one little word made a light bulb of thoughts explode in my mind. This word has been prominent in the media for weeks to describe the looting, burning and defacing of statutes taking place across the United States. It’s been going on in the lawless city…

I’d like to continue the Fourth of July memory this week with some personal thoughts about the United States. It’s been my privilege to study in-depth many founding documents of our nation and to teach that subject for years. I gleaned my historical understanding from primary sources through many gifted researchers, authors, and communicators from…

I wrote on the War for Western Civilization last week not knowing the next battle for America would soon erupt. On May 31, we celebrated Pentecost Sunday–the day the Early Church was born. Some powerful spiritual events took place last weekend including GO Day, Make Jesus Known, the Praise Walk (March for Jesus), and the…

During Memorial Day Week, I often share the heroic story of my Uncle Dick who was shot down in a bombing raid during World War II. To me, he will always be “The Bravest Boehme” and his story is worth remembering. My uncle fought for an entire culture–what history calls Western Civilization. That war still rages today.…

However, the unfolding Covid-19 pandemic with its lock downs and numerous governor/mayor edicts has exposed this dangerous philosophy as anything but positive or in favor of progress. We now see plainly that the…

I was born too late to experience the horrors and deprivations of the first two World Wars (1914-18 and 1941-45). But I’ve read enough history to realize that any talk about World War III must be serious–especially with nuclear weapons. Since the recent killing of Qassem Soleimani, the terrorist head of the Iran’s elite Quds…

I am not an economist and in this article, won’t pretend to be. Economic theory often confuses me–but I’m not alone. Our nation is 23 trillion dollars in debt and very few seem to care. But I am an American, a parent and a follower of Christ involved in helping people improve their circumstances by…

Even before Donald Trump became the president of the United States, a “Resistance Movement” began forming throughout our nation’s political hierarchy to block his leadership and policies. Hillary Clinton trumpeted the need for “Resistance” after her Electoral College defeat and many Never-Trumpers from both political parties simultaneously joined the chorus. This week the resistance movement…

For many years I was confused over the difference between a vision statement and a mission statement. Eventually, I sorted it out and now teach courses on this subject at Faith International University. Allow me to use our nation’s birthday–the 4th of July–to settle in your own mind the difference between vision and mission. We…
