Bob Tamasy: Overcoming The Greatest Problem Of Poverty Monday, June 7, 2021 - by Bob Tamasy Bob Tamasy The problem of poverty is both perplexing and perpetual. It’s plagued humanity since the beginning of time, and despite the posturing and protests, lacks simple solutions.   Years ago I had the opportunity to visit an inner city ministry in Atlanta, Ga. on several occasions, observing firsthand how leaders there were striving to help equip down-and-outers to one day become up-and-outers.

Bob Tamasy: Darkness Only Makes The Stars Shine Brighter Thursday, June 3, 2021 - by Bob Tamasy Bob Tamasy “Night is when the stars come out.” How many times have you heard people say that?

It might be a friend or family member, employer, or even the restaurant itself. It might not have take...

Bob Tamasy: Because We Don’t Know What It Will Be Like Monday, May 24, 2021 - by Bob Tamasy Bob Tamasy Can you imagine a builder of grand, upscale houses – ones consisting of many perfectly decorated rooms, with every conceivable accessory – living in a tiny, rundown, rat and cockroach-infested apartment? No, that’s impossible to imagine.   How about the CEO of a luxury car manufacturer – vehicles equipped with all the latest high-tech options that only the most affluent can afford – driving a personal car covered with dents on every side, paint hopelessly faded, and its t...

Bob Tamasy: Consulting The "Map" For Avoiding Everyday Perils Thursday, May 20, 2021 - by Bob Tamasy Bob Tamasy Can you imagine being a soldier deployed in a war zone somewhere in the Middle East, Iraq or Afghanistan perhaps, and being sent out on a mission on foot or by transport vehicle? You know the intended route is littered with IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices), but you have no clue where they are.   What might that be like? Sadly, many in our military have experienced that firsthand, suffering grave injuries or even losing their lives when one of those lethal devices detonate...
