Fearless Faith: Proper tension is needed in order to thrive (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The chainsaw hadn’t been touched but once or twice since the Dailey tornado, now several years past. The bar was embarrassingly corroded but was at least more recognizable than the chain that clung to it, securely bound in place by a combination of rust from exposure to moisture and layers of dirt, oil, and grease. This old mechanical beast, moribund, at death’s door in every regard, was too much of a challenge to pass up. Armed with naval jelly, steel wool, spray lubricant, air compressor and a
Fearless Faith: Easy advice (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Three hours and two supercells from home, a decision had to be made; wait out the ominous skies in my path for an hour or two, or press onward in hopes of side-stepping the worst of the weather with the goal of arriving home before dark. I will acknowledge up front that if any family members were faced with the same choice and they were calling to ask my advice, my response would absolutely be to encourage them to sit tight and wait out the storm.

Fearless Faith: Hypothesizing faith (opens the original)
Read excerpt

It was impractical yet necessary. A mental health break in an otherwise busy day. A bit of time stolen from the routine to engage a few minutes for an indulgence of sorts; gleaning a few ears of corn from a harvested field. By the time I walked the edge of the field, the shadows were long. The last sunshine of the day was brilliant against yellow cornstalks, broken rows aligning ones vision to the local elevator where most of the crop had been marketed or stored. The combine, while remarkably ef
Fearless Faith: A selenhelion event (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Editor’s Note: Ken Frantz shares this previously published article while he is on sabbatical. There were interlopers on our hill the morning of the eclipse. Mind you, we tend to keep a regular eye on what’s happening at the far end of the property ever since we interrupted some illicit drug drops at our pasture gate a few years back. We needn’t have worried, however. These two-legged encroachers were sitting atop our hill to experience an unrestricted view of the total lunar eclipse. There were
