...here on earth to breathe so many cubic meters of oxygen and eat so many cows and pounds of potatoes in my lifetime and then die, and that's it? Is there some kind of plan that has been ordained before time for me? They want to know. The Gospel message is the message of love. God so loved the world, everything that's in it, that he sent his son Jesus Christ to die for it. That's how much he loved it. He wanted to make a way for you and me, an escape...
Between 1978 and 1995 Franklin built the tiny organization, called Samaritan's Purse, into a $32 million-a-year operation providing food, medicine and other aid in global crisis zones, while preaching the gospel to its beneficiaries and anyone else in the area. With Franklin--often literally--in the cockpit, Samaritan's Purse parachuted into places like Bosnia, Haiti, Ethiopia and, immediately after the bombing, Oklahoma City. The second half of Graham's autobiography, Rebel with a Cause, recounts with obvious relish various acts of charitable and evangelical derring-do, from dodging P.L.O. cannon fire while aiding an evangelical church...
...late Richard J. Herrnstein argued that intelligence is inheritable and black and Latinos come up short on every test. Since one author has a degree from Harvard, and the other was a professor at the University, their words and ideas have been taken by many Americans as gospel.

The 1990s is a repeat of the 19th century, where academics define the parameters of discussion and defend the racist...
...what hoofing! The dancers, all men, cross and recross the stage with demon drive. The sounds vary as strains of jazz, blues, hip-hop and gospel interweave. This is a very raucous show, about as far removed from the classic buck-and-wing as tap can get. The performers slap down the beat hard, and if that doesn't rattle the eardrums, they are miked at the ankle. It doesn't make for subtlety, but for visceral excitement...
...Search for Jesus" included a page on the book I wrote with Matthew d'Ancona, Eyewitness to Jesus, about papyrus fragments that are the oldest bits of St. Matthew's Gospel. While it is encouraging that you gave our research such prominence, your article could mislead readers. It is not my opinion that a papyrus of St. Luke's Gospel in a Paris library "was written between A.D. 63 and A.D. 67." That papyrus, certainly the oldest of this Gospel, belongs to the late 1st or early 2nd century. The approximate dates of the four oldest Gospel papyri...
