Why Christmas is So Important, Especially in a Year Like 2020

By Dr. Mark Creech Christian Action League December 23, 2020 When I was a youngster, during Christmastime, my Dad would set a small table in the foyer by the front door of our house.

Virginia Governor: No Government Should Diminish What God’s Economy Freely Affords.

By Dr. Mark Creech Christian Action League December 18, 2020 I live in the Tar Heel state, the great state of North Carolina. My wife, Kim, hails from Norfolk, Virginia.

‘Churches Should Suspend Services During Pandemic.’ I Respectfully Dissent!

By Dr. Mark Creech Christian Action League December 4, 2020 For the last few months, I’ve been on the telephone with hundreds of pastors, asking them how their churches are navigating the Coronavirus Crisis.

Bowed But Not Broken Under a Wintry Blast

By Dr. Mark Creech Christian Action League November 27, 2020 His writing ministry is not well-known, but the late Crate Jones, who was from Durham, N.C., once moved Ruth Bell Graham to say that there were few writers she enjoyed more for simple inspiration and refreshment. I agree. Jones was a master wordsmith, and I […]

Thanksgiving and the Old, Wet, Bare Rooster

By Dr. Mark Creech Christian Action League November 26, 2020 Several years ago, in the Pentecostal Evangel,  J.K. Gressett wrote about an agriculturist named Samuel S.

The Pandemic and the Fear of Death

By Dr. Mark Creech Christian Action League November 20, 2020 Peggy Noonan, a former correspondent for CBS News and a speechwriter for Presidents Reagan and Bush, once said: “I think we have lost the old knowledge that happiness is overrated – that, in a way, life is overrated. We have lost, somehow, a sense of […]

Church Member Admonishes Pastor Search Committee in a Letter

By Rev. Mark Creech Christian Action League November 20, 2020 One of my favorite quotes is from Tom Minnery’s book, Why You Can’t Stay Silent.

Is Alcohol Making a Mockery of Clergy?

By Rev. Mark Creech Christian Action League November 13, 2020 It’s strange how we can hear a Scripture passage for years and fail to experience the full import of its meaning. We may have a cursory understanding of the text without any particular application. One such verse is Proverbs 20:1, which reads, “Wine is a […]

By Rev. Mark H. Creech Christian Action League November 9, 2020 There once was a man who hated his wife. He nit-picked everything she ever did. He had friends to spy on her.
