Here is the first Amazon customer review of my new book, Christ on the PGA Tour (1965-1982): I know it is cliché, but this book is a must read for anyone associated with the sport of golf. And, even for a person like me, a Christian who has little familiarity with the professional golf scene, the book was very enjoyable. I’d even say a “page-turner”. Zarley writes and tells a story well. Kermit Zarley played on the PGA Tour from 1964–1986 and... Read more
Yesterday, Pope Leo XIV met Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas at the Vatican. In this first in-person meeting, they clasped hands signifying respect for each other. They discussed the need for a Palestinian state. The Vatican has for many years advocated what the PA calls for—a two-state solution. That is what I advocate in my book Palestine Is Coming: The Revival of Ancient Philistia, published in 1990. Bible believers, as I am, should advocate for justice regarding the intractable...

The Certain Expansion of the Universe Scientists believe our universe eventually will come to and end. In 1929, Edwin Hubble discovered with his telescope that all galaxies are moving farther and farther away from each other, which came to be called “the expansion of the universe.” In the 1990s, scientists thought this expansion of the universe was “accelerating”, indicating that the universe would grow colder and colder and end in what they called “the Big Chill.” The Decelerating Expansion of...

We Must Oppose Trump To Protect Our Democracy I have been an independent voter all of my life. I always voted for Republican presidents until Barack Obama. IMO, the Republican Party is not what it used to be and is now the Trump Party. Donald Trump is the biggest liar I have ever seen in my lifetime. He told Billy Bush that telling people lies that you want them to believe is his modus operandi. Billy Bush, cousin of former... Read more
North Africa and the Middle East Are Earth’s Driest Area The driest region on earth is an area that begins in Egypt and stretches both west and east across North Africa and the Middle East. Ten nations in this sparse territory, which encompasses the Sahara Desert and the Arabian Peninsula, are the ten driest nations on earth according to the World Atlas. That is an astounding statistic since there are 193 nations in the world that are members of the... Read more

I am a supporter of the Council on Foreign Affairs (CFR) centered in New York City and Washington, D.C. It is a non-profit, non-partisan think tank. They are an elite source for learning about world affairs. In fact, their outstanding magazine is called Foreign Affairs. Today, I attended a one-hour, CFR, zoomed webinar entitled “Religious Persecution in China.” It was overseen by CFR’s Irina Faskianor, Vice President of National Program and Outreach. It was moderated by CFR’s Sarah Cook. She... Read more
The Universe Had a Big Bang of a Beginning Centuries ago, many cosmologists believed that the universe was static—that it had no beginning and would have no ending. Both propositions were in disagreement with the Bible. It begins (to make an unintended pun), “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1.1 NIV). And the last two chapters of the Bible state, “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and... Read more
On August 23rd, I blogged about President Donald Trump saying, “I Wanna Get to Heaven.” It was prompted by the prospect that if he could negotiate a peace deal to end Russia’s war in Ukraine, it might be enough for God to let him into heaven when he dies. Now he’s done it again. When Trump traveled to Israel last week to speak to the Knesset and then attend the signing of the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas to... Read more
