Right up front, I gotta say it. And I know this is anathema to the enlightened, evolutionary worldview. But here it is. There’s no such thing as fossil fuel. Bam! I just attacked the whole fossils evolution connection. And, no, there won’t be a forthcoming retraction or apology. Because the fossils evolution connection is a fairy tale. And I probably … The rest of the story…

I’m happy to celebrate when a church moves in the direction of rightly dividing the word of truth. But you almost never see that anymore. In fact, most establishments calling themselves churches move in the opposite direction. Sometimes the move is speedy. And often it’s slow enough to be almost unnoticeable. Like when a report says a church moves by … The rest of the story…
It’s unimaginably cool. But you and I actually have the breath of life from God in us. Uh-oh. I’ve already given you the clue that’ll probably make sure you get an A+ on this pop quiz I’ve got for you. I know. Nobody likes a pop quiz. But, no worries. Because I KNOW you’re gonna pass it now. OK, here’s … The rest of the story…
OK, stop me if you’ve heard this story (yeah, as if you could stop me). This story took place six thousand years ago. In a place very, very close to where you are right now. In fact, it took place exactly where you are right now. And it’s about the beginning of our little, blue planet. But before the story … The rest of the story…
It’s true. We Christians have a different perspective on life. So, we think different thoughts from the rest of the world. And that’s because we know ideas can have eternal consequences. So, we should think a different way. With a clear head. And with wisdom. Because it’s for sure that so-called “intellectuals” are constantly on the lookout for ways to … The rest of the story…
Infinitely creative. That’s the way you might imagine somebody who could conjure up designs for the universe and everything in it. And if you found out that the same person could get it all built in only six days, you might start to think, “This is no ordinary person.” And that would be the understatement of all time. Because there’s … The rest of the story…
If you’ve spent even a little bit of time online, you’ve probably noticed a common “item” in the world of internet marketing. And you might have taken advantage of it more than once. I have. In fact, I have one of these on the opening page of TonyFunderburk.com. Of course I’m talking about the almost ubiquitous free offer. And marketers … The rest of the story…
“It’s all about giving.” If I’ve heard that once, I’ve heard it a thousand times. Maybe thousands. And I’ll bet you’ve heard it, too. On Christmas commercials. And billboards. In stores. So, it got me thinking. If it’s really all about the giving, then the first Christmas was actually on the 6th day of creation. That 6th day was all … The rest of the story…
Talk about a very good feeling Imagine yourself in God’s shoes for a minute. Back at the time of creation. Those very first six days when He created Heaven and Earth. And everything in them. You’re looking down at it all and how perfect it is. Can you imagine? Wouldn’t it give you a very good feeling like never before? … The rest of the story…
How come the whole world knows his name? About 2000 years ago, a baby was born. Well, a lot of babies were born. But only one of them was THE baby. No one, these days, would even know who he was, if he was just another baby. And yet, the whole world knows his name. At least in one form … The rest of the story…
Sharing a new tune and thankfulness on this episode of Rhyme and Reason I love when I first finish a new tune. There’s something magical and rewarding about being able to listen to a recording of what used to only be in my head. It must be, on a much smaller scale, how God felt, during the six days of … The rest of the story…
Be fruitful and multiply Even if you’re not a Christian or Jew, you’ve probably heard the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. And you might remember how God told them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every … The rest of the story…
Toxic masculinity – a cunning, conniving label Some would say…check that…many would say…check that…most would say, if given the opportunity, I suffer from toxic masculinity. That’s a label, until recently, I hadn’t heard before. And it’s a clever (translate: cunning and conniving) label. Because most people realize when something’s toxic, it’s bad. So, whoever came up with “toxic masculinity” probably … The rest of the story…
Your Life Means More I read a short article, this morning, from a fellow musician who wants to motivate others. One of the main lines in the article said, “You matter. You matter. You matter.” I wonder if she even understands why she wrote it three times? But that’s something else I’ll talk about some other time. The point is…she’s … The rest of the story…
Global warming sure beats freezing to death If you pay attention to what scientists say, instead of politicians and activists, you’ll discover that global warming is pseudoscience. And I’m not talking about scientists who do government sponsored experiments on lab rats, monkeys, and bacteria. Nothing against them, but I’m talking about physicists and astronomers and biologists. As an example, watch … The rest of the story…
Things are bad. And how long can it go on? You might have notice a couple of bad things happening in the past few years. Right? Yeah, a couple of bad things every second of every day. There seems to be no bottom to the abyss of evil people are willing to climb down into. Just when you think you … The rest of the story…
Is there a chance you might not be a Christian? Yes. That’s the short answer. What I’m about to share with you might make some people feel uncomfortable. Truth, so often, has that effect. But truth needs to be shared even though it’s getting more and more difficult for many people to hear it. In fact, I might have already offended … The rest of the story…
Six Days of Creation – Can you say “wow!” Imagine taking only six days to create the universe…with all its stars, planets, moons, creatures, and human beings. In your wildest imagination you can’t comprehend only six days of creation to produce all that. But there’s a good reason you can’t. Because… But you’re created in the image and likeness of … The rest of the story…
How the wind blows and how a baby grows: a common answer If you’re a scientist, or even a layman with a curiosity for how things work, you should be in awe of the complexity found in a single, living cell. I’m not talking about merely being curious. I’m talking about being awestruck. Literally! If you don’t understand how all the parts … The rest of the story…
Look! Up in the air! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Or is it a big, giant, white eyeball turning red? No…it’s Supermoon. Tomorrow night at a little after 8 p.m. (in Colorado) until almost 9:30 p.m. the moon is going to fly under the shadow of the earth. The cool thing about it is that it will … The rest of the story…
