Gary kicks off 2026 with a reminder that last days craziness and doomsday predictions of the end have been going on for a very long time. Unfortunately, it appears that pastors and writers haven't learned this lesson and that the coming year will not see a slowdown in "last days madness." Gary provides the remedy.

Gary recaps 2025 and looks ahead to what he has planned for the coming year. There are always new writing and research projects, as well as reprints from American Vision's past work. A biblical worldview encompasses every area of life, not only eschatology, and Gary has many works coming that help Christians think and live biblically.

God created trees. He made them for us: for home building, decoration, shade, construction of fences, tables, chairs, sheds, and so much more. Just because pagans might have carved up a tree to make an image of a false god to be worshipped does not mean that we can't use them to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, God's "indescribable gift" to us (2 Cor. 9:15).
