We all know that God is in charge, right?  If we are honest though most of us don’t think about it often and sometimes we forget entirely (but only briefly).  God’s sovereignty is not something we think about often but it has become central to my life in recent years or maybe more accurately stated…

This guy Nathan shares 5 likes and 5 concerns about the whole Tebow mania.  He stated a bunch of what I was attempting but does it much much better.  Read it HERE

Does Tim Tebow bug you?  I found myself cheering for the Denver Broncos against the Steelers on Sunday night not because I am a fan of Denver (though I have relatives in Colorado) nor because I have any ill feelings towards the Steelers.  Many of my friends are Steelers fans.  It was the controversial Tim…

Found this one at a blog called fors clavigera The kids are not all right. That is the evidence-based, data-driven picture that is emerging from sociologist Christian Smith’s National Study of Youth and Religion.

Gresham Machen which I read for a course as few years back.  Written in the 1920’s, you would think that (apart from the writing style) it was written in…

Fun to consider the vastness of God’s creation… To try imagining how big, place a penny down in front of you. If our sun were the size of that penny, the nearest star, Alpha Centauri, would be 350 miles away. Depending on where you live, that’s very likely in the next state (or possibly country)…

A great interview with Sean on the whole worldview subject… worth reading here a clip… There’s a well-known joke for lawyers that says when the facts are on your side, argue the facts. However, when you don’t have the facts, use emotion and state your case with absolute certainty. This is precisely what is going…

Ed Stetzer writes his reasons as to why we need our people in scripture regularly…  a few snippets… There is much research that shows the correlation between spiritual maturity and reading the Bible. I regularly hear of people who would rather read devotional books than read the Bible. Evangelicals in our country are just not…

A link because we need to chuckle once in a while… Siblings?
