Something to Ponder
Do you believe the Bible is inspired … because the Bible says it’s inspired?
If it wasn’t inspired, then the fact that it says it’s inspired wouldn’t mean much would it?
Is the entire idea of “inspiration” mere circular logic? Think about it.
Does it bother you that when Paul wrote that all scripture is inspired, our entire […]
I’ve Been Published
Well, sort of.
A couple of days ago, I was reading the local paper. One of my favorite sections is the Letters to the Editor section, and I make sure I read that every single morning. This particular morning, I read a very interesting story that, as you can imagine, I didn’t think could go without […]
Holy Ground
Last night at my weekly church homegroup, we watched the Breathe Nooma video. While the whole video was fantastic, one part stuck out to me really got me thinking…
Are there things in this world that are, in and of themselves, neutral? They aren’t “godly”, but they aren’t “sinful” either. The color blue. Refrigerators. Street signs. […]
Wow, They Really ARE KVJ-Only!
Thanks to MondayMorningInsight, I’ve been made aware of the most KJVO church in the world. To be honest, I knew there were people out there who believed strongly in the KJV, but I didn’t know people like this even existed.
Here are some excerpts … (quoting from touchet1611.org, my thoughts in bold)
The old Cambridge […]
Giving Satan Too Much Credit
Sometimes I watch television, or listen to the radio, or listen to stories people tell me and I wonder … are we, as Christians, just a little too eager to give Satan credit for things that we think are bad?
For instance, if a parent finds some Christian rock music in a teenager’s room, blows up […]
Bless His Heart
Once upon a time, there was a this guy named Bill. Bill was a regular guy, nothing really all that special.
One day, a guy from Bill’s town decided he’d start a church. But not a typical church. Nope, he wanted to start one of those “contemporary” churches. You know the kind […]
The Never-Ending Quest for Balance
I was fortunate enough to have lunch with an old friend of mine this afternoon. It was probably one of the most spiritually edifying times I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing in a while. He literally poured into me spiritual encouragement. I felt like I was getting a spiritual massage as he was ministering to […]
A New Series
OK, so here’s what I’ve been thinking lately … the Dangerous Questions series has been extremely successful. Every week, the latest Dangerous Question tops the stats as one of the most read stories of the week.
But in reality, the series has run its course, and I think it’s time for it to come to an […]
How to ‘Handle’ an Atheist
Last Saturday night driving home from Meredith’s house, I was letting my radio scan through the local stations. Little did I know that Way of the Master Radio played every week (maybe even every day) on one of our local stations. Todd Friel is one of the hosts, along with Ray Comfort and […]
Dangerous Questions: Is God Proud?
I remember when I was younger, probably 12 years old or so, I asked my first “dangerous question”. I had been in church all my life, and in a Christian school since I was five. For a kid, I knew a lot about Christianity, and through that process, I started to question things.
One of the […]
