The other day, my family and I happened to be watching Leave It To Beaver, an old black and white TV show that ran from 1957-1963. The episode was the one where Beaver Cleaver’s older brother, Wally, suddenly became self-conscious of his nose. Some girl he favored made an innocent comment about it, thinking nothing of

This morning… “What’s your strategy for overcoming the flesh’s desire to turn your eyes away from the Lord?” “I read my Bible every morning as part of my routine,” my wife responded.“ So true, isn’t it…how vulnerable we are to the trickery of our own devices!” She continued, “Let me put it this way, if

I’ve looked. I swear I have. And you know what? I can’t find anywhere in the Bible that describes true happiness in terms of belly laughs. To be fair, the Bible also doesn’t preclude hearty enjoyment. In fact, it may just be a function of the freedom a person already possesses. Happy people tend to laugh more,
