"The View from 1526" - William Bowmer

As the United States prepares to observe its semiquincentennial on July 4—the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, which announced the founders’ intent to separate from Great Britain—Americans are reflecting on the ways their nation has changed since then. But can you imagine yourself, in 1776, looking back 250 years before the birth of your nation? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-view-from-1526

"A Two-Tiered Justice System?" - Roger Meyer

Many have heard allegations in the news recently that a two-tiered justice system exists in the United Kingdom, although the concept is hardly new, nor are such complaints limited to any one particular country. The United States has certainly had its share of controversy. Should some get preferential treatment over others? What does God say about justice? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/a-two-tiered-justice-system

"It's Your Choice" - J. Davy Crockett III

The Declaration of Independence, written in Philadelphia in 1776 after months of debate and negotiation, contains a beautiful statement of principle: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” It is an uplifting concept—recognizing, of course, shared equality in the eyes of the law and before our Creator. Yet, from that starting ...

"True Liberty" - Roger Meyer

Liberty is defined as the power to act as one pleases. It is a state of independence and autonomy, of being free from restrictions and of having the right to self-determination. Liberty may be defined in different ways when speaking of it politically, philosophically, or religiously. Some may define liberty as the right to do whatever they want, whenever they want, with whomever they want! But most of us realize that true and lasting liberty comes with moral and ethical restrictions. - Full comm...

“Are You a Victim of ‘Divide and Conquer’?” - Roger Meyer

Most people have probably been victims of a “divide and conquer” strategy at some point, in some theatre of life. Often, we do not realize it because we are too close to the emotion and postured wrangling of charges and countercharges, of arguments and personal attacks. This takes place in homes, churches, businesses, and even entire nations. What can we do? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/are-you-a-victim-of-divide-and-conquer

"Echoes" - Richard Franz

If you have ever stood in an empty warehouse or at the entrance of a cave, you have likely shouted your name or “Hello!” and then listened as the empty space echoed back to you. One of God’s amazing, though often misunderstood, creatures that uses echoes to its advantage is the bat—and there is an important lesson to learn from them! - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/echoes

"A Look at Betrayal" - J. Davy Crockett

Some names live in infamy. The memory and names of those individuals have been seared into the historical fabric of the countries and cultures in which they did treacherous deeds. It seems that no country or region has lacked ignominious characters whose names have become reviled, used as synonyms for traitor. How does someone get to the state of mind to betray others? - Full Commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/a-look-at-betrayal

"The Cost of Withheld Forgiveness" - Adam J. West

Years ago, as I was visiting an older gentleman in his home, he shared something that shocked me deeply. He described a falling out with his son and how he simply could not forgive his son’s treatment of him if he didn’t get an apology. It was, he believed, impossible. He mentioned a passage in scripture that, sadly, he had misunderstood. What he needed was the truth regarding the passage and a desire to reconcile. - Full Commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-cost-of-wit...

"The Big Office at the End of the Hall" - Lehman B. Lyons Jr.

There were three other students waiting as I arrived at the school principal’s office door. All of them had the look of convicted dread on their faces as they anticipated the punishment for the wrongs they had committed. Drowning in personal guilt, I, too, took my place in line. - Full Commentary Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-big-office-at-the-end-of-the-hall

"How Can I Help?" - Roger Meyer

Some people are helpers by nature. It is part of their personality to be caring, helpful, and insightful regarding the needs of other people. Being a helper is an important aspect of God’s nature, and one to which we should all aspire. How can we help, and why is it important? - Full Commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/how-can-i-help

"Following the Crowd" - Richard Franz

Growing up, we may have let peer pressure get us involved in something without thinking it through fully. When our moms found out, they would ask, “If everyone was going to jump off the bridge, would you go jump, too?” Mom was sincerely looking out for our well-being. She said this to make us think, Why am I about to do this thing everyone else is doing? But how much of society still follows the crowd every year? - Full commentary here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/woman-to-woman/following-the...

"Does God Welcome Us On Our Own Terms?" - J. Davy Crockett III

There was a large crowd gathered at the funeral home, including politically prominent men and women, professionals, and working-class folks, to pay their respects. The deceased had been a successful lawyer for decades, even serving in the state legislature, before becoming a circuit judge, where he served with distinction for many years. But time is relentless, and the judge died “in a good old age, full of days” (1 Chronicles 29:28). - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/d...

"Easter Bunny or Eostre Hare?" - Roger Meyer

"The Sleeper" - J. Davy Crockett III

In the well-known biblical account of the prophet Jonah, God instructed His reluctant Israelite servant to deliver a warning to the city of Nineveh. Jonah unwisely attempted to shirk his duty and flee from his responsibility. To get away, he booked passage on a ship in Joppa and promptly went below for a nap—but God had plans to wake him up to reality. - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/the-sleeper

"'Bleep Bleep' Language!" - Roger Meyer

Have you noticed a proliferation of swearing? Political candidates and elected officials are “dropping F-bombs” (obscenities) increasingly without fear of public disapproval. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has regulations prohibiting obscenity and profanity on TV and radio, but the broadcast moderators today must be busier than ever “bleeping” out the cursing! - Full Text Here: https://www.tomorrowsworld.org/commentary/bleep-bleep-language

A young woman once went to her grandmother and told her about the difficulties of her life and the hardships she was facing. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up.

"Come with Me if You Want to Live" - Roger Meyer

“Come with me if you want to live” is a famous line from the sci-fi movie The Terminator and its sequels, repeated by various characters. It has become a catchphrase and trope in stories about trust and rescue from danger or death. While not everyone is a fan of sci-fi movies, the phrase or its general meaning has been used in many other stories and movies where a hero rescues someone from peril to save their life. Often the rescuer is unknown to the one being rescued, who must decide whether to...
