In 1896, Pastor Charles M. Sheldon published a book based on a series of “sermon stories” he had used for his church’s Sunday night services. The book was a huge success, selling over 50 million copies, and today ranks as an inspirational classic. “In His Steps” posed a question in its subtitle, “What Would Jesus Do?” The book became better known by its subtitle, eventually giving rise a hundred years later to the “What Would Jesus Do Movement.”

Recently, someone on Facebook posted a picture of an uncompleted jigsaw puzzle of a cityscape. She had all the buildings and scenery and people done but had about 160 pieces of sky off to the side all in rows. They all looked nearly identical, too, and she was flummoxed.

[Note: Unless otherwise indicated, the commentary and quotes in this article are from the author's interview with those mentioned.]. Elizabeth Montgomery was one of the most popular actors from the 1950s to her unfortunate passing from cancer in 1995. Before, during, and after her benchmark Emmy-nominated role as twitch-witch Samantha Stephens on TV's Bewitched (ABC, 1964-1972), Montgomery made over 200 additional appearances in other weekly shows, TV-movies, and feature films.

I like seeing my old friends — and yes, I really mean old — and find out how real America thinks. The other night I heard the same old — and yes, I really mean old — trope that “today’s kids don’t know how to work.” I think I heard that when I was a teenager in the late ’50s and early ’60s. What’s wrong with today’s kids? Let me point out several things.

COLUMN: ‘Kids won’t work’

As a freelance faith columnist and Christian author, I’m honored to have the opportunity to provide thoughts and ideas to relay to others. I’m sure all Bible teachers and pastors feel they are God’s messengers. What I do is nothing more special than how millions of other Christians serve Him, and I humbly acknowledge that most are more talented and effective. God’s people are important pieces of a large puzzle, stones in His wall, and a voice among many who represent the one who created everything and knows everything. Writing is one of my callings, yet my personal testimony includes that I did not always pursue this path. God truly works in mysterious ways. Songwriting came to me through a spiritual experience when I was a young man. Then over time, I began to write articles, Bible studies, sermons, and eventually newspaper and magazine contributions. I’m intentionally making a long story short, nevertheless, writing is the first thing I think about when I awaken and in the evenings I have a pad and pen on the table next to my recliner to scribble down thoughts that often come to me.

‘This is a game changer.’ Ordering off the kid’s menu comes with a certain set of expectations. Small portions, lower prices—possibly an age restriction—but generally, nothing too off-base as far as ordering food.

Actor Van Johnson, who died in 2007, was one of Hollywood's ideal films idols. In the 1940s, the charming screen icon was box office gold, and remained a popular presence on TV in shows like Murder, She Wrote (which starred his good friend Angela Lansbury).

Living for Jesus should not be a secret. The life of a believer must demonstrate evidence of a life changed by Christ. The New Testament states that the old sinful self passes away when one becomes a follower of Christ, and the believer becomes new. The change and the new life provide evidence in one’s life and others. In 2 Corinthians 5, the apostle Paul noted that believers become evidence for the Lord when they enter a relationship with Jesus as Lord and Savior. This evidence occurs in an external, internal, and occupational manner.
