It’s Not as Bad as You Think, It’s Worse
The President comes out in favor of gay marriage, and all the church is a dither. We are posting, tweeting, protesting, and petitioning, as though some great line in the sand has been crossed. Well, it hasn’t, and it has. First, the notion that the President has only recently evolved to come to this conclusion… Read more »

Come as You Aren’t
Too many conversations are far too predictable. Praise the sovereignty of God in salvation and someone will inevitably remind you that God didn’t make robots.

Hospitality
Welcome to our conversation, a conversation on making others welcome. Hospitality is just simple enough, just separate enough, just deliberate enough, that we have missed the boat. We think life consists in the things we are busy with, when we are called to be busy about the things of life, of eating, drinking, conversing with… Read more »

It is sure evidence that we are so caught up in the modernist mindset that we think evidence is found only in careful argumentation, in neatly stacked syllogisms, in test-tubes and beakers. Jesus, however, tells us that it is our love for one another that demonstrates that we are His disciples (John 13:35). This love… Read more »
