Death
Providence and President Trump
Twelve hours after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, I anxiously sat down for my morning devotions. Most days I check my “Life Calendar” to see what happened on this particular date in past years. (My “Life Calendar” can be found on pages 697-714 of One Small Life.)
On July 14, 1973, I recorded my belief in a vital truth:
“God is sovereign in history.”
America learned that same lesson–again–on July 13, 2024.
Here are my thoughts on God’s Providence and attempted assassination of Donald Trump.
Memorial Day 2024: The Bravest Boehme
Today is Memorial Day in the U.S. Over one million men and women gave their lives defending the our country in twelve major wars. Another four million died due to complications after battle.
This afternoon I will accompany my wife and mother to our local cemetery and placed flowers on the headstones of loved ones. Freedom is not free–it’s very costly. And we’re losing it in America due to our sins and apathy.
The person I think about most on Memorial Day is my Uncle Dick whom I’ll have the privilege of meeting in heaven. He died near the end of WWII in 1945.
He was the bravest Boehme. Read More
We Live in a Fallen World
I’m sure many have heard that Youth With A Mission lost eleven of our missionaries in a tragic traffic accident on Saturday, February 24, 2024, near Arusha, Tanzania.
The incident, involving multiple vehicles, also killed fourteen others and injured twenty-one. Two of our leaders remain in critical condition.
We are fervently praying for the injured, family members who lost loved ones, and deeply mourn the loss of our friends.
Why do events like this happen?
We live in a fallen world.
