Something to Think About: Your Estate Sale is Comin’!

March 19, 2022 by Tony Miano Leave a Comment

As I took Roxy for a walk yesterday, I saw parked cars lining both sides of a street. A small roadside sign in the distance read "Estate Sale." The Last of the Spirits The scene unfolding before me took my mind to a couple of places.

Man’s Colossal and Extraordinary Efforts to Suppress the Truth

November 18, 2014 by Tony Miano 2 Comments

What a truly extraordinary technological feat! On March 2, 2004, the ESA and NASA launched the Rosetta rocket into space. The rocket takes its name after the Rosetta Stone.

April 11, 2012 by Tony Miano Leave a Comment

The only thing stopping an unregenerate man or woman from being a Hitler, Bin Laden, Stalin, Dahmer, or Manson is the restraining hand of the common grace of God. Understand this. Before you came to faith in Christ, from your infancy, while you were not (and are not still) as depraved as you could be, you were nonetheless born a depraved hater of God. And everyone you know who … [Read more...]
