Subject Matter Experts

Today I want to go through a story about a fictitious, company, but with real-world events. At Acme Solutions, growth had stalled, projects dragged on. Compliance audits revealed gaps, and customers began losing confidence. The leadership team realized the root cause was a lack of deep expertise. Decisions were slow, errors were costly, and innovations was nowhere in sight. One day, the CEO posed a question, “What if we invest in knowledge instead of patching problems?” The answer came in the … [Read more...] about Subject Matter Experts

Husbands – A New Creation

John 1.1 states: "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God." These two beings decided to make humankind similar to Them: And God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness; And God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him, male and female He created them" (Genesis 1:26-27). So human beings are made in the image of the God family. Not just physically or in cognitive capacity, but in … [Read more...] about Husbands – A New Creation

The Power of Example Over Argument

In a world filled with endless noise – where every platform demands an opinion and every disagreement sparks debate – there’s something quietly powerful about a life well-lived. Not staged, not loud, not attention-seeking – but a sincere life that reflects the character and nature of God. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible emphasizes how God’s people live far more than how they debate. While the modern religious world often defaults to confrontation and verbal … [Read more...] about The Power of Example Over Argument

Three Choices: Good, Evil, & Life

Author Steven Covey states what distinguishes us as humans is the ability to examine our own character, to choose how to view ourselves and the situations in which we find ourselves, and to control our own effectiveness. This is important because it implies that we can learn the art of ethical behavior and apply it to life’s circumstances. He says “We are not our feelings. We are not our moods. We are not even our thoughts. The very fact that we can think about these things separates us from … [Read more...] about Three Choices: Good, Evil, & Life

The 3rd Commandment

God has provided us with some very clear directives as to how a relationship with Him is to be developed. It is summarized in the first four commandments. My focus will be on the third commandment: "You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes His name in vain” (Exodus 20:7). That’s some fairly strong language. It places a very high value on the use of God name. That gives us an idea of the seriousness of the commandment. But there … [Read more...] about The 3rd Commandment

Who Controls You?

Some people are able to lead others minds, controlling the direction of thought without them even knowing the trap they are falling into. Many do not recognize that shrewd deception and tactics are being used to gain control of their thinking and behavior. Personally, I think the subject of control is a serious subject and one we all need to understand. What is a controlling spirit? How do we recognize elements of that spirit that may be in our lives? How do we deal with others that may try … [Read more...] about Who Controls You?

Laboring Amid Chaos

The late author Michael Crichton, famous for both novels and screenplays, originally trained as a physician.  After earning his MD from Harvard Medical School in 1969 and completing a postdoctoral fellowship, Crichton practiced medicine.  However, the rigid structure and emotional demands of medical practice limited his true passion for storytelling.  His medical background was reflected in most if not all his novels which explored complex scientific ideas and ethical … [Read more...] about Laboring Amid Chaos
