Twila Paris: Citizen Ruler
http://twilaparis.blogspot.com/2008/09/citizen-ruler.html
Friday, September 12, 2008. I am one of those people the media refer to as a “values voter.” I’m not sure it’s meant as a compliment. In any election, there seems to be a somewhat fluid list of important issues at the top. Somewhere underneath, or off to the side, exist these strange creatures who vote values instead of “real issues.”. I actually heard a pundit say the other day that the top three issues in this election are “the economy, the war and change. So what do we do? If I do, then I am covered b...

Twila Paris: Marriage Is...
http://twilaparis.blogspot.com/2010/09/marriage-is.html
Thursday, September 23, 2010. K and I gratefully celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Though the official date is May 18th, we've been following the advice of friends who spent an entire year celebrating their 25th anniversary. Their month-long Mediterranean cruise has eluded us, but the concept is delightful nonetheless. But when we, or those we love, fall short we don't lower the standard, no matter how tempting it may be. We look once again to His standard. And we open our hands to receive ...Marri...

Friday, December 13, 2013. One day, early in the new year, they were driving past the church when Carly suddenly burst into tears. Afraid Carly had been hurt somehow, Debbie asked, "Honey, what's wrong? Through her sobs, the child answered, "Mommy, God is gone!

Twila Paris: Scar Tissue
http://twilaparis.blogspot.com/2014/01/scar-tissue.html
Saturday, January 11, 2014. I woke up this morning thinking about scar tissue. It’s not something I’ve given much thought to in my life. But this past summer made me aware of the potentially enormous impact of something we often can’t see and rarely think about. He saw several surgeons and no one wanted to attempt a second surgery. Some were not willing to acknowledge that anything was wrong. But one day a casual acquaintance mentioned a renowned surgeon in another state who had been able to help...The s...

Twila Paris: Christian Education
http://twilaparis.blogspot.com/2008/11/christian-education.html
Monday, November 10, 2008. For more than twenty years I have had a growing passion for Christian education, which has naturally become more focused and refined since I became a mother. My husband, Jack, and I are firmly committed to a Christ-centered education for our son. At this point, that is happening through homeschooling. Our long-term plan is to simply be listening and obedient as the years progress. Check out "Four Centuries of American Education"- book and DVD.). ECCLESIA COLLEGE combines afford...

Twila Paris: At the Top of the Hill
http://twilaparis.blogspot.com/2010/03/at-top-of-hill.html
Monday, March 1, 2010. At the Top of the Hill. Saturday night I watched, along with millions, as the USA-1 bobsledding team, led by Steven Holcomb, won the four-man bobsled competition in the Olympics for the first time since 1948. I don't know much about bobsledding, but I've always enjoyed watching the precision teamwork and the crazy downhill ride that apparently can only be produced by runners on ice. They were off to an amazing start! Finish the way they began. And they did it! An American team won ...
