Chesty Puller is a legend in the world of the USMC. As far as the pecking order of medals is concerned, the Medal of Honor is the highest award given for valor in combat. The second highest is the Navy Cross. Chesty Puller won five of them! He’s the most decorated Marine in the history […]
Workout named after John A. Lejeune, the 13th Commandant of the Marine Corps and known as the “greatest of Leathernecks,” having served with distinction for over 40 years. This is a true “butt kicker” and you will enjoy it! If you’re up for it, do a round of pull-ups at the end of every cycle! […]
“Iron Mike” is a class that I taught that’s based on a strategy that incorporates free weights in a group fitness dynamic. Very cool! While we’re not lifting a lot of weight, you get the burn and the toil you want and need in the context of weights and pace. And the “pace” I’m talking […]
How do you know the Bible is true? If the basis for your belief in Christ includes the substance of Scripture, which it invariably does, how do you respond to a question that must have an element that qualifies it as something consistent with the tone of verses like 2 Timothy 4;2, 1 Peter 3:15 […]
When I was stationed in HI, I was a member of Trinity Missionary Baptist Church which was right outside the gates of Pearl Harbor. I was the only white person in the congregation. I played drums as part of their music ministry and it was an extraordinary experience! There was never even the slightest hint of […]
I was reading a blog post from someone who has reached a point where he believes that anything he’s ever charged for the music ministry he’s provided was a sin. He went on to say that anything that falls under the category of “ministry” needs to be offered for free, otherwise you’re operating outside the […]
If someone were to ask you what you believe and why do you believe it, what would you say? Could you state it in the time it would take you to ride an elevator from the ground floor to your office? Would you sound compelling and confident, or would you resonate as someone who’s regurgitating […]
The Conquest of the Promised Land was a series of military campaigns led by Joshua (see Josh 12). The mission was to completely destroy the Canaanites and settle the land that God had promised Abraham in Genesis (see Gen 13:14-17; 15:19-21). That same land, by the way, is the land that the nation of Israel […]
“Pure Christianity” is never exercised in the absence of wisdom (Prov 9:10; Jas 1:5). Dressing up whatever policy or conviction you in the guise of “compassion” or “Christian charity” – if it doesn’t pass the litmus test of a comprehensive perspective on Scripture (2 Tim 3:16-17) – you’re simply attempting to give your flawed opinions the […]
Armistice Day was a big event when it first occurred. That was the day the “Armistice” was signed and marked the end of hostilities between those nations engaged in World War I. It was later changed to “Veteran’s Day,” a day to honor all those who had served in the Armed Forces. Memorial Day, on […]
