The Forgotten Fields: Part VI – Tennis
I. The Pop of the Racket It begins with a sound... A sharp pop! The crisp collision of a faded ball against a wooden racket. Sneakers skid against sunbaked asphalt. Cicadas hum somewhere in the distance. A chain-link fence rattles as a wild serve bounces wide. The net sags just a little too low in the middle.

Breaking Barriers: Jesse L. Brown's Historic Achievement and the Legacy of the USS Jesse L. Brown On October 21, 1948, a young man from Mississippi pinned on his wings and changed history forever.

The Forgotten Fields: Part V – Soccer
I. The Sound of the Game Before the scoreboards, before the TV deals and plastic cleats, there was the sound... A sharp thud of a leather ball smacking against a threadbare boot. The metallic ring of a goalpost that was once a pipe from the shipyard. The whistle of wind through chain-link fences. Mud sucking at heels. Steam rising from factory stacks in the distance.

The Historical and Logical Case for Jesus Christ, the Son of God
The following is not an appeal to blind faith or emotion. It is a reasoned argument grounded in history, logic, and evidence. Whether one accepts the divinity of Jesus Christ or not, the data surrounding His life, death, and resurrection demand an intellectually honest examination.
