An evolving perspective

I’ve been doing some intense thinking lately, which is why I haven’t posted in a little while. This intense thinking has led me to some intense answers, and rather than let my brain explode trying to hold it all in, I figured I’d unpack my inclinations a bit here on Finite Calls Infinite and start [...]

What’s so funny ’bout…

I was listening to a recent “webinar” by Lance Wallnau in his online teaching course, and in looking up a passage in the the Letter of the Apostle Paul to the Romans, an adjacent chapter leapt out at me and so captivated my attention that it was like the words were literally jumping off of [...]

In this letter, these leaders — respected names in the Islamic world — will reportedly entreat Christians to join with them to [...]

Churches blessing churches

I had the most incredible experience last night. A local church in Santa Rosa invited our church to come enjoy an evening of worship and fellowship, so a number of us trekked across town to join in on the festivities. Since I’m on the worship team, I was extremely privileged to play music not only [...]
