Students had to fight to maintain their legal right to organize themselves for prayer even on their own time. Today, prayer has largely disappeared from civic events and activities. Christians have pointed out that to deny p...
I have always had an experiential understanding of God. I can attest to God’s power and love in my life, felt deep within my soul. But to explain this to a non-believer in terms both of us could grasp? That seemed very daunting until I started reading, “Evidence That Demands a Verdict” by Josh McDowell. Let’s face it, I’m not a theologian. The material was hard to wrap myself around at first, but after much prayer, a practical reason for needing concrete information to defend our Christian faith began to unfold. Check out the...

Back in 1975 when the first transportation plan was laid out for San Diego County, planners asked residents for support of a heavy rail system. “People laughed at us,” said Garry Bonelli of the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG). “They said, ‘I can get anywhere I want to go in San Diego County in 20 minutes.’” In 1975 that was true, he said. More than 30 years later, that statement is laughable. As those who have lived even a little while in the area are well aware, there has been a population and housing boo...
