Conversations with God

Boy, do I like the way Barack Obama handles things. Man. How can anybody argue with this? CNN reported Monday that Obama gave a blistering response to a question about a Reuters news service report that quoted an unnamed senior McCain aide saying that Obama’s name appears in liberal blogs speculating about Trig’s parentage “in…

Who is Jesus, really? Is he our savior? Is he the Son of God? And what is our relationship to Jesus, and to God? Last week a question and answer appeared in the Weekly Bulletin of the Conversations with God Foundation and drew a sudden and considerable response. I started receiving tons of mail in…

Do humans need more regulation, or less? More laws, or fewer? More restrictions, or none at all? Is it the role of government — and religion, for that matter — to keep us “in line”? I rarely do this here, but today I want to open this Monday’s Sunday School All Week session with the…

Have you ever asked why we have a God? Children do all the time. The first three weeks of Sunday School All Week we have explored what Life is, and whether there is a God, and if so, what God is. Today we are going to look at a deeper question: WHY is God? Why…

What does God want? That is the question before the house. What in the world does God really want? What does He want from human beings? What does He want us to think, to believe, to do? That is the specific question we have been exploring here the last two Saturdays as our Sunday School…

The final word on women and their place in society is the Word of God, which makes the role of women very clear. God knows exactly What God Wants with regard to all of this, and it is humanity’s job to adhere to the Will of God… I have had a very difficult time getting…

Is a woman allowed to speak? Is a woman allowed to lead? Is a woman allowed to have authority over men? Is a woman allowed to hold a position of responsibility in God’s church? By the way, which church IS “God’s church”? Is it fair to ask that question? Would anyone care to answer it?…

Why is God? That is, why does God exist? Or, as a wonderful 7-year-old asked his Mom recently, “How come there is a God, anyway?” Good question. In order to answer it we need to get clear, first of all, that God is not a man, or a creature that looks like a Very Big…

The Bible makes it very clear. A woman is to keep silent. She is to have no authority of any kind over any man. She is to be submissive. So says the Bible. What in the world does God want, anyway? There have been many teachings on this exact subject. Entire religions have been built…
