           home-sick:  (adjective)  unhappy or sad at being away from home and family; yearning for home. It’s very normal for us humans to be homesick from time to time during our mortal life-journey here on planet earth.  Maybe you’ve been homesick for the farm you grew up on.  Or for the treeContinue reading “November 2010: Kinda Homesick”

To anyone who will listen to me or read what I write, I am always telling them about God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), God the Spirit, and the Bible—God’s complete written revelation of Himself to humankind.  I attempt to communicate to people how extremely “practical” God and the Bible are for our daily living. Continue reading “October 2010: Letter From Peter”

Very Ordinary!  Each September’s issue will be devoted to recapping the previous 12 months of The Traveler and personal events in our lives.  The Traveler is usually only three pages in length; this month, it will be four pages.  We began publishing The Traveler one year ago in September 2009.  At first, we planned to provide it by e-mail to only aContinue reading “September 2010: Anniversary Issue”

New Baby Born! Part of my life story continued from last month’s issue… That day in the shower—April 26th of my 18th year—I didn’t understand anything about what had happened inside me; I just knew something had happened.  A tectonic and cosmic shift had occurred deep inside me that would unalterably change my life  for allContinue reading “August 2010: My Life Story #2”

Local Juvenile Delinquent Run Out Of Town! Rapid City — September 8 —  Local juvenile delinquent, Bill Boylan,  left town early this morning enroute to the Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS).  Rapid City police officers were present to ensure Boylan left town without incident. Those words could have been the actual headline and first paragraphContinue reading “July 2010: My Life Story #1”

Continued from last month  We are studying the concepts of time and eternity.  They are two completely separate phenomena. They are mutually exclusive of one another in an absolute sense. Eternity IS a state of absolute timelessness, NOT a state of unending time. There are NO endless ages of time in eternity.  Also, Eternity IS aContinue reading “June 2010: Time to Get Ready”

 There’s some flawed and faulty thinking among many worldwide believers in Jesus.  About What? Here’s what.  As I visit with various Jesus-believers and pre-believers here and there in person, by correspondence, and by e-mail around the world, I find that many of them have only a vague, dim understanding of what eternal LIFE—Real LIFE—is allContinue reading “May 2010: Got LIFE?”

Continued from last month change:  to cause to become different; alter; transform; a radical transmutation of one’s character or core  nature.  Many extensive surveys and studies the past few years have disclosed that one of the greatest fears among both teenagers and adults is the fear of changes which might occur in their future.  In fact, the fear of possible futureContinue reading “April 2010: Major Changes in Your Future”

Here’s a general statement:  Most—not all—adult humans tend to fear and resist change.  Oaky, okay, I know—you don’t fear change; you’re the exception.  I wrote most adult humans fear and resist change, not all of them. I’m not writing about generalized changes that take place during our mortal journeys in the external world around us—technologicalContinue reading “March 2010: Winds of Change!”

This is a simple reminder of why I write and furnish you The Traveler each month: You are a traveler on a very brief, hasty journey on your way to Jesus’ Kingdom when He returns…and beyond.  God wants you to have a successful and prosperous journey! The Bible is very clear:  we are  transient strangers…temporary residents…short-lived travelers…sojourners…pilgrims…wayfarers—all tooContinue reading “February 2010: Successful and Prosperous Journey”
