The feather flies in the wind, but it has no inherent power to move. Consequently, when the gale is over it falls to the ground. Such is the religion of excitement. But the eagle has life within itself, and its wings bear it aloft and onward whether the breeze favors it or not—such is religion when sustained…

If you have visited the picture galleries at Versailles, where you see the wars of France from the earliest ages set forth in glowing colors upon the canvas, you cannot but have been struck with the pictures and interested in the terrible scenes.

When people rail at creeds as having no vitality, I suppose that I hear them say that there is no life in eggshells. Just so; there is no life in eggshells. “My dear sir, do not put yourself out to defend a mere shell.” Truly, I am no trifler, nor so litigious as to fight for a mere shell. But listen!…

I was noticing, in the life of that man of God the Earl of Shaftesbury, that his first religious impressions were produced by a humble woman. The impressions that made him Shaftesbury—the man of God and the friend of man—were received in the nursery. Little Lord Ashley had a godly nurse who spoke to…

Obedience has to be learned experimentally. If a man is to learn a trade thoroughly, he must be apprenticed to it. A soldier, sitting at home and reading books, will not learn the deadly art of war. He must go to the barracks, and the camp, and the field of battle if he is to win victories and become…

When a young man comes to college he usually has much to unlearn. If his education has been neglected, a sort of instinctive ignorance covers his mind with briars and brambles. If he has gone to some faulty school where the teaching is flimsy, his tutor has first of all to fetch out of him what he has…

Have you never noticed how men get their senses clear through affliction? I read in the life of good Dr. Brown that when he first preached he heard two women at the door talking to one another about his sermon. One of them said to the other, “Ah! It was very well, but it was almost all tinsel.” A short…

I have heard of a naturalist who thought himself exceedingly wise with regard to the natural history of birds. Yet he had learned all he knew in his study, and had never so much as seen a bird either flying through the air or sitting upon its perch. He was a fool, although he thought himself exceedingly…

Some of our teachers wanted us to learn the big doctrines first, and they did not like it because we could not at once see all the sublime truths of election and predestination. Certain of the old standards who are very orthodox expect all newborn babes to eat meat at once; as soon as ever a person is…

I saw lying between Chatham and Sheerness a number of ships that I supposed to be old hulks. I thought how stupid the government was to let them remain there and not chop them up for firewood or something else. But someone said to me, “Those ships can soon be fitted for service. They look old now, but…

Language may prove to be the undoing of Darwinian Evolution. Tom Wolfe in his book, The Kingdom of Speech talks about the findings in a magazine essay published back in 2014.

A 4-year-old pre-K student in Oklahoma was forced to use his right hand while making his letters. The teacher sent a note home to the parents advising them of the reason. “There are numerous instances of left-handedness being associated with wickedness,” read the astounded parents. —Jim L. Wilson and…

A college in Massachusetts has changed all of the speed limit signs on campus to honor a retired mathematics professor. When he retired, Professor David Kelly asked that the speed limit be changed to 17 mph instead of 15 mph because he had spent his entire career fascinated by the number 17. Kelly had…

Officials at Druid Hills Academy say the goal is make troubled children behave better. They say teachers have been trained to give concise, clear instructions in a…
