What is a Christian? (How to Know You're Saved) I went to church every week as a kid, and I sat in the back row and played tic-tac-toe or hangman or MASH. Remember that game? I didn’t really pay attention. I was certain that I would go to heaven because I had decent...

Pearls (What Matters Most) A little girl waited with her mother at the checkout stand when she saw a circle of glistening white pearls in a pink foil box. “Oh, please, Mommy. Can I have them? Please, Mommy, please?”Her mother checked the back of the...
Test Day (What Are You Looking Forward To) August 12, 1981. It was my sixteenth birthday, and in the state of Missouri, you have to wait until you’re sixteen to get the one and only piece of freedom every 16-year-old can’t wait to have: a driver’s licens...
