It seems that everyone has a prediction for the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 5. It was Yogi Berra who said, "Predicting is very hard ... especially about the future." I believe that as a citizen of the U.S. I have a responsibility to vote. As do you in your nation. I have been involved in my local community for many years - coached youth teams, volunteered at shelters, worked in my local precinct, helped my neighbors. That's what a Christian man does. My prediction is that when we gather at Lions Roar Nov 7 - 9, Jesus will be Lord, God...

When bombs exploded in London in 2002, schools locked down, public offices closed. It was random. When terrorists attacked Paris in 2015, it brought an entire nation to a standstill. The population was filled with deep fear. It was not predictable. When a synagogue was attacked in my city in 2002, people huddled in their homes in fear. Police departments and hundreds of officers went on alert. That is the power behind terrorist activity. But Jesus said: “And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity,...

2977 That’s the number of people who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks on the United States, September 11, 2001. And today, 23 years later, over 18,000 first responders are dealing with life-threatening diseases from the ground zero destruction. The victims were sons and daughters, moms and dads, husbands and wives... some were able to call home before the final moment, some jumped to escape the flames - perishing on their own terms ... some prayed final prayers as the falling buildings consumed their dreams and for all of us - the deadly and deranged evil of men attempted...

My father, Ed Cole, and our family launched this ministry in 1977. He was near the age when most men retire, but God had given him a word from the Lord to reach the men of the nation. I went to the courthouse and paid $34 cash for the incorporation. My sister Joann was already producing brochures and tape series, my Mom keeping records, praying, and counseling, my sister Lois reviewing legal needs. Defeating the attack on the family began with a family. Dad was told it wouldn't work. Others, like Harold Bredesen and Campbell McAlpine, said it was a word from God. Then, in a public meeting,...

I was with Eddy Leo ministering in Amsterdam. At four am, in the dark Dutch morning, I was jerked awake with a terrible dream. My first grandson was just two years old, and in my dream, he was being abused.  Troubled and prayerful, I knew immediately I was in the presence of the Lord. I was crying, my heart was beating hard. In an instant I knew Cameron was safe at home with his parents, but what I heard from the Lord was, “Boys and girls across the world are being abused right now. They need fathers.”  My heart broke.
