When Intelligence Becomes a Threat

Excellence is a gift from God. Scripture reminds us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters” (Colossians 3:23).

When God Steps In: Lessons from Jacob, Laban, and the Science of Epigenetics

You know there are certain places in the Bible we tend to read quietly without deeply grasping what the passage is really saying. But they’re still in the Bible, so we can’t ignore them. One of those is Genesis 30:25–43 — the account of Laban’s deceptive dealings with Jacob. As…

The Power of Choice

One of my husband’s professors, despite passionately teaching on the dangers of smoking, was a chain smoker. When asked why he continued the habit despite his knowledge, he simply replied, “Something has to kill a man.” Sadly, he eventually died of lung cancer. This real-life story reminds us that our…
