Posted by Ray Pritchard on Friday, June 17, 2011
The assignment seemed simple. Find a biblical father who did it right. Sounds simple but it isn’t because the Bible doesn’t tell us everything we’d like to know. For most of the men of the Bible we’d have to say, “We don’t know whether they were good fathers or not.”But if one criteria of good fatherhood is…
The Father Who Would Not Say No
Posted by Ray Pritchard on Wednesday, June 13, 2007
A man might be a good man in many areas and yet be marked by a significant weakness in some other part of his life. Sometimes that significant weakness becomes a big part of what we remember about the man. Such was the case of Eli, high priest of Israel, a good man with a heart for God who served as high priest for 40 years ...

Posted by Ray Pritchard on Thursday, May 25, 2006
We arrived home last night after a three-day whirlwind trip to Lincoln, Nebraska, home of one of the most famous Christian radio ministries, Back to the Bible. Since its inception in 1939, Back to the Bible has had only three Bible teachers—Theodore Epp, Warren Wiersbe, and since 1990, Woodrow Kroll. For 67 years this mini ...
