George Orwell said,
Sometimes the first duty of intelligent men is the restatement of the obvious.
I’m not claiming intelligence, but I do think some restatement of the obvious regarding the Lord’s day is an eternally and spiritually intelligent thing to do.
Even the phrase itself, the Lord’s day is instructive. It isn’t just Sunday or the first day […]
The Intern recently posted 10 life resolutions that are essential reading. In light of my current concern, note number five in particular: “Resolved to be committed to the local church all my days, allowing nothing to stand in the way of this biblical imperative. Whether a full-time minister or not, the body of Christ will […]
This video of The Gospel in 6 Minutes is a terrific asset for both evangelism and edification. I benefited from it so much I added it to the one28 About page.

The TruThseeker is back at his blog and crunched some numbers on the average life expectancy increase over three millennia. I’m using my extra 2 minutes and 53 seconds today to write this.
I did not go “back to school” yesterday for the first time in 28 years. The past six years I taught one or more high school Bible classes at our Christian school and the previous 22 years I made my way through the typical course of elementary, junior high, high school, (three) colleges, and then […]
