ShareSo I am really intrigued to hear your take/reaction to the below video: [I ask that you not continuing reading until you watch the embedded video] If I were honest, I felt like that video could have been shown to people in Europe during the Crusades as a call to arms. All I heard was [...]

Share At first blush, the scene seems all too familiar. An outdoor fire crackling in the corner. A circle of six men laughing about everything under the moon. A table with pizza, rum, wine, Guinness, and a margarita. Lit cigars wafting into the air and soaking the clothes. But that is at first blush. A [...]

Share That was a sign I saw on a church the other day. If there is one statement (or question) that boils down religion to its dark essence, that would be it. Do good, God smiles. Do bad, God frowns (or worst). So how would you answer that question if someone asked you, Have you [...]

Share So true. I read this and thought, “This is the same justification the religious leaders in Jesus’ day used, ‘Well, the Law of Moses (or their Bible) says…’” There’s this “John MacArthur Study Bible”. I don’t know much about John MacArthur, but apparently, he likes to kinda dilute stuff. I flipped open to Matthew [...]

Share Have you seen WALL-E? I have, and this simple “kids” movie rocked me. For this post, I will show you an image from the movie with my reflections following right after… Everyone but one (WALL-E) is blindly following the lines, nodding to the images on their screen, and mindlessly going on with their existence.

Share The moment in our history finally came when God decided to step into humanity in a physical, human way. The fancy word for God doing this is incarnation. God, in their truth and love, took on flesh and name Jesus … and shortly after God did, God became a heretic. A heretic (according to [...]

Share At least that is what some theologies would have us believe. It is as if Jesus walked the road to the cross draped in an American Flag, much like Apollo Creed in Rocky 4 entering the ring to James Brown’s, “Living in America”; as if Jesus died with America on the forefront of his [...]

Share…as most of you know, is the title to Rob Bell’s newest book. I just purchased the book yesterday and plan on posting some sort of reviewy thingy once I finish it. Until then, I wanted to share my thoughts on the title and extend an invitation to you. First, my thoughts on the title. [...]
