Back in the '60s and '70s, Charles Kuralt of CBS News took us all "On the Road" with his scenery-chewing segments on life in America off the interstates. Sick and tired of the politics and competition for hard news, he felt Americans were better served with observing what was real and enduring. We agreed, and Americans still enjoy seeing the USA in their Chevrolet. Christians especially should be very familiar with the biblical admonition to live our lives as pilgrims and strangers on the earth, keeping our ultimate heavenly destination on the front burner of our minds. The broad path of the interstate will never satisfy the spiritually thirsty and those looking for the City of God. As we travel, the way well lighted by His Word and grace, let us exhort one another all the more. Home Before Dark is a collection of observations and encouragements from the journey, written to illuminate the path and help the believer to keep their priorities straight in light of the rapidly falling darkness, indicating the soon return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
