Rowan’s an awesome guy. I went to his photography class a couple of years back, and not only is he an awesome guy, not only is he an awesome artist, but he’s an awesome lover of Jesus Christ. I thought his post concerning the interaction between our will and God’s will was one of the [...]
Happy New Year! The Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Twenty-Eight, to be precise. Just think: this is the first day of a new year, something that only happens a handful of instances in our lifetimes. I remember what was going on a year ago very well — I was launching this blog! My [...]
In contrast to the abysmal “Christian” response to the open letter from Muslim letters (you can find a link to it in the comments of a previous post), I was overjoyed to read this excellent rebuttal to the letter by the Barnabas Fund. In it, they educate Westerners on the finer points of Islamic outreach [...]
Well, I’m not sure what’s going on. The really cool thing I wanted to share with you is that on Saturday, I started feeling really awful, and it seemed that I’d picked up the flu that the rest of my family had already gotten. (I live in my own place, but we intermingle regularly!) Well, [...]
I am extremely distressed over hearing this news about an open letter from Muslim leaders around the world which will soon be presented to leaders in the global Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant churches. In this letter, these leaders — respected names in the Islamic world — will reportedly entreat Christians to join with them to [...]
Just watched this right on video by Chris Davis and I encourage you to do the same. Let God be Who He really is: an all-powerful, supernatural, over-the-top, mindblowing, impossible, miraculous God!
Today I discovered that everything I knew about atheism is wrong. Apparently, all honest, enlightened, and throughly reasonable people can’t help but be atheists. Religious people are, of course, deluded, unscientific, and completely unable to substantiate any of their beliefs or spiritual claims. How do I know this? Sam Harris: Mythbuster. Read this essay by [...]
I drove up with some friends from our youth group at Grace Fellowship to come here to lovely (and hot) Redding, CA. Why? To attend an awesome, radical, and life-changing event: JesusCulture. I’ll be blogging about the event and posting pictures over the next few days on our Grace blog, so head on over there [...]
My previous post was mainly continuing my train of thought on the controversy over “faith” vs. “reason” but somehow the comment section got pulled into the subject of divine healing. That wasn’t really the point of the post, but while we’re on the subject, I just thought I’d mention a fascinating book I read on [...]
Via Teltic Thoughts, I read some choice bits from this blog post by a self-described “evangelical atheist” who feels it’s her Dawkins-given duty to rid the world of “religion” and replace it with religion atheism. Basically, the point of the post is that we are in a war between people who believe in rationality and [...]
