| Where to Begin? |
If you're not a Christian:
Wondering what's the deal with Christianity? Take a look at my article called
Why Should Anyone Become a Christian?.
If you are a Christian:
Consider starting with these articles:
- How to Hear the Voice of God
One of the most important things we can learn is how to discern God's leading in our daily lives. This article will give you practical guidance in how to hear God's voice.
- Are You Sure You Believe what the Bible Says?
Years ago, God showed me that if we want to see the
full
picture of a jigsaw puzzle, then we need to use
all
of the puzzle pieces and fit them together properly. Similarly, if we want to see the
full
picture of a doctrine in the Bible then we should find as many pieces of Scripture as possible for that doctrine and fit them together properly. This article makes it clear how important it is to be thorough and objective when we study the Bible.
- How Do You Study the Bible?
After the Lord showed me the analogy of a jigsaw puzzle (above), I began studying the Bible differently. Now I pick a topic and search the Bible to find
all
of the passages on that topic in order to see the
full
picture. This article describes in detail how I study the Bible, and it provides practical guidance for your own Bible studies.
- How to Be Certain That You Will Go to Heaven
This article will help you to be absolutely
certain
that you will go to heaven when you die.

| About the Name |
In 1995 God told me to create this online ministry, and He made it possible for me to put my original set of articles on the Internet for free.
A few years later He prompted me to get my own domain name, so I asked what the name should be. The answer I got was "Layhands.com."
Perhaps this name indicates that laying hands on the sick will become a larger part of my ministry. Even though I do see healings occasionally, God hasn't made healing a large part of my ministry yet. I have been in a "season of preparation" since the summer of 1999, so I believe that the Lord will move me into a new area of ministry when this "wilderness season" is over. Several times over the years He has given me a confirmation that Layhands.com is the right name for this website, so I'm excited and curious to find out the ultimate reason for this name! When that happens, I'll post an update here.
