The Home for Christian Writers! MEMBER PROFILES Name: Douglas Laird Website: www.batmq.com  SEND THIS WRITER A PRIVATE MESSAGE  HIRE THIS WRITER  TRACK THIS AUTHOR  ADD TO MY FAVORITES Member Stats Articles written: 280  About Self I am a 55 year old non-denominational Christian, married with three adult children, and two grandchildren. I am a retired-disabled police captain. I am a cancer survivor, but live with debilitating conditions due to diabetes. I have been involved with spiritual writing since the mid 1980's. I attend Grace Bible Church in Somerset, Mass. and attribute many of the themes and the quality of my more recent writings to the spiritual edification that I have received as a member of the Grace Bible Church since 1996, under the teaching of Pastor-teacher Robert McLaughlin. I was ordained as a pastor teacher in August of 2008. God willing, my internet website will continue to be my primary ministry, and I am also available to speak at Churches, Missions, Bible Studies, etc., within a 50 mile radius of Cumberland, RI Article Archives Date Title Views Status 04/10/09 Success, In Spite Of Ourselves 101 Free to Share 03/24/09 Christians Do Not Go To Church 103 Free to Share 12/31/08 Peace, On Earth? 139 Free to Share 12/16/08 What Did NOT Take Place In Bethlehem 148 Free to Share 10/16/08 “He must increase, but I must decrease (John 3: 30 NASB).” 204 Free to Share 10/01/08 Why Would A God Of “Love” Send His Creatures To Hell? 177 Free to Share 09/23/08 The Worship Center Of The Church Age 200 Free to Share 07/10/08 Vacations Are For People Who Don’t Have A Life 474 Free to Share 06/30/08 A Life Of Nonsense 267 Free to Share 06/23/08 Priorities And Pitfalls Of Personal Relationships 814 Free to Share 06/19/08 Everlasting Vs Eternal Life 479 Free to Share 06/05/08 Believing In God Vs.
