Forgiveness Conquers 40 Years of Anger
Our brotherhood at CMN is in a powerful season of harvest. Reports from across the globe bear out the wonderful news… God is healing the hearts of men. He is rescuing fathers and saving children. After a Sunday church service in Montana, following a tremendous men’s conference the day before, a big man named Jim came up and shook my hand. “Thank you,” he simply said. “For what?” I asked. He stood six inches taller than me, probably fifty pounds heavier, most of it tough Montana muscle. He was a true western roughrider. “Well,” he started, then paused. “Yesterday something...

Overcoming Fear
When bombs exploded in London in 2002, schools locked down, public offices closed. It was random. When terrorists attacked Paris in 2015, it brought an entire nation to a standstill. The population was filled with deep fear. It was not predictable. When a synagogue was attacked in my city in 2002, people huddled in their homes in fear. Police departments and hundreds of officers went on alert. That is the power behind terrorist activity. But Jesus said: “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity,...
