  • Outstanding Native Women

    K.B. Schaller|Updated Jun 3, 2019

    • WARN Co-Founder • Civil Rights Activist • Nurse When officials in the Catholic grade school where Lorelei DeCora was enrolled tried unsuccessfully to sever her ties to her American Indian traditions, their actions no doubt fueled DeCora's early attraction to the 1970s Red Power Movement. She would become one of the youngest to serve as board member for the American Indian Movement (AIM). Born on the Winnebago Reservation in Nebraska, Lorelei DeCora is a descendant of the Min...

  • The Heavens Declare the Glory of God

    Sue Carlisle|Updated Jun 3, 2019

    I have recently thought a lot about light, water and seeds that God created. But I've also begun to see another pattern. It took me years to see the pattern. Even as I studied God's Word and linked it together with scientific facts, I failed to see the big picture until God focused the truth for me. Here is what He showed me: Genesis 1:1 tells us that God created the heavens and the earth. John 1:3 reveals that Jesus is the Creator. The One who perfumed the flowers, flavored...

  • Laugh Again

    Phil Callaway|Updated Jun 3, 2019

    I love baseball. Oh, I know it isn't as fast paced as golf or lawn bowling, but I enjoy the delicate game of cat and mouse between pitcher and batter. The tension of a ninth inning full count with bases loaded. I enjoy watching the players with their odd quirks and superstitions. Take Wade Boggs, for instance. As a Boston Red Sox third baseman, Wade attributed his stunning success to eating chicken before each game. "I had pork chops before one game," he said, "I went 0 for...

  • Move over, Job

    Crying Wind|Updated Jun 3, 2019

    Sometimes when I'm struggling and everything seems to go wrong and I'm feeling sorry for myself, I compare myself to Job, in the Bible. OK, I don't have boils and my sheep and cattle didn't die and the house didn't collapse on my family, but still, sometimes I feel life isn't fair and God is picking on me. I've even told people at times I feel like God's undeserving stepchild. I know God is merciful and generous and forgiving-and He's given me more good things than I ever...

  • Native Cooking

    Dale Carson|Updated Jun 3, 2019

    May and June are the most beautiful months of the year. May always makes me think of my mother because her birthday is in May and so is Mother's Day. Then there is Cinco de Mayo and all that Mexican food to prepare and eat. May brings flowers everywhere and happy faces. June is major strawberry time. School's out for summer and lots of romances begin and start to flourish. Graduations, parties, visits and the best party of all: pow wow! For these events and others we usually...

  • Roma and Juanita: Tales of Two Women

    Will Krischke|Updated Jun 3, 2019

    Alfonso Cuarón is one of my favorite directors. He made the best Harry Potter films, The Prisoner of Azkaban; the fantastic and memorable Children of Men, which is, at least on one level, a retelling of the Christmas story, and the thrilling, head-spinning Gravity. These movies are so different from each other, it's basically impossible to pin down a signature style or trademark. Cuarón just makes great films, plain and simple. Roma, a domestic drama about a middle-class M...

  • Setting Your Body Clocks

    Updated Jun 3, 2019

    One way to respect your body is to be aware of your natural body cycles. Within your biological system you have a timekeeping computer inside the hypothalamus and consisting of a small cluster of about 20,000 neuron cells. This suprachiasmatic nucleus controls many nerves and hormones to regulate a person's body functions over 24 hours. While that is the main clock for our bodies, we also have many smaller clocks that run the different organs, tissues and cells. Nearly every...

  • A Friend in Need

    It happens to all of us. At times we're tempted to feel overwhelmed by the challenges we face. Life is not easy for any of us! And sometimes it's harder than other items. One of the keys to making it through the tough times is having the love and help of friends. So how can you be a good friend and help someone through difficult or dark days? 1. Pray for your friend.
