We have all heard the expression, “My way or the highway.” It is usually a statement made by someone in authority, giving a subordinate a choice—either to do something a certain way, or to suffer the consequences. The Almighty God gives mankind a choice, either to learn to live His way, or to suffer the consequences. Which way are you choosing?

God gave the Holy Spirit to His Church on the Day of Pentecost, but few understand the meaning of this Holy Day. God’s Holy Spirit is vital for true Christian living, but many are unaware of what it is, what Pentecost is, and what it means to Christians today!

Have you ever attempted to get people’s attention while they are immersed in a television program or a video game? It can be quite difficult, even when the programming is not that interesting. Such was the case when our children were very young. After calling out my son’s name for the third time as he sat mesmerized in front of a flashy cartoon, it became clear that I, as his parent, could not compete with the message of the mighty television. In a side-by-side competition, parents just do not have what it takes to hold a child’s attention over that seemingly magical box and its wonderful world of distractions. So, my wife and I disconnected it, and we no longer need to compete for our children’s attention.
