We have a small town a few miles to the south of us in Pasadena, California. Technically, the town is more like a city in terms of its population, but the feel of San Marino, California is definitely small-town, especially on the Fourth of July. Its central park, Lacy Park, is shaded by a forest of towering mature trees. The ...

Does God Have a Strategic Plan for You? – by Ed Dunn
We are in the midst of an exciting strategic planning process here at Plain Truth Ministries (PTM). This planning process, which involves our team here in the Pasadena office, along with Brad Jersak in Canada, gives us an opportunity to take a fresh look at PTM’s mission, magazines and partner letters, books, on-line content, as well as the operations and procedures that support all we do in this ministry. As a closeknit team, we approach every aspect of this planning process prayerfully, as careful and conscientious stewards, asking God for guidance and wisdom as we look to the future. By definition, Strategic Planning is a type of planning ...
One Day in May – by Ed Dunn
We walked slowly into the funeral home together amidst a shower of cold rain and gray ash. Following him in, I can still see the collection of raindrops and ash making a paste on the shoulders of my father’s black pinstripe suit. My best friend, Tim, had died after being struck by a car a few days earlier. He died while delivering newspapers from the back of a bicycle on his early morning paper route. We were there, on that bleak day in May, to express our sorrows, to pay our last respects, and to say goodbye to Tim.
A few days earlier, I had learned the pure joy of experiencing the natural intersection of blind chance, sport and self-disc...

Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled by Ed Dunn
What a time we’ve lived through together these last few years! How could we have ever imagined a global virus that would lock us down for so long?

And yet, we now find ourselves in the midst of a new Easter season. As we do, what perspective can we see in the life of Jesus to help us face and feel his peace during troubling times such as these?
The gospel account is well familiar to us during this special time of year. John 14:1-27 (KJV) gives us a glimpse into a conversation as Jesus ...
