Saturday Thoughts on Emotion and Faith
Saturday, June 28th, 2008I was recently reading an account of John Wesley and his conversion experience. Now I don’t know if you want to go through the whole thing, but what most caught my attention was the portion that begins at point 13. As you read through his story it’s interesting to think about how emotion [...]
Friday Fun-day
Friday, June 27th, 2008I’ve got a great list of links for you today, ranging from super silly to super serious. Well, not really. They’re mostly just super silly. I”ve had too much serious this week, how ’bout you?
Kind of silly:
Do you have thousands of emails in your inbox? the Jesus Creeders do…
Pretty silly:
When you speculate about the identity [...]
Reading the News Through the Lens of Faith- Pt 8- Global Warming
Thursday, June 26th, 2008I could take a number of angles on an article like this, but since we’re doing a series on environmental news and stewardship that’s the piece I’ll highlight.

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008For the next few weeks we’ll be using Mark Batterson’s “In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day” to help us stimulate a conversation about God-given opportunities in our lives.
If you’re wondering where Mark got the title for his book, it’s from the great section of II Samuel where the writer lists all [...]
Birthday Question of the Day
Monday, June 23rd, 2008Today is my birthday. I’m super old.
I remember when I was 5 and wearing Transformer undies, my babysitter & neighbor Emily asked me how old I thought she was. Now if you’ve ever done this to a little kid, you know it’s a mean trick. Kids have no numerical concept of age.
A 5 year old [...]
Saturday Thoughts on Great Faith
Saturday, June 21st, 2008Wouldn’t you love to have a great faith? You know what I mean. I know that technically speaking we all have the same faith. We have the same Lord. We are all equally saved. What I’m talking about, is having one of those connections with God where we just seem to know what he wants [...]

Reading the News Through the Lens of Faith- 7 Green Christianity
Thursday, June 19th, 2008I love it when a little perfect storm arises. There’s been a lot of discussion about the environment in recent months due to the presidential election, recent natural disasters, rising gas prices, and so on. There has also been an increasing discussion amongst Christians concerning the environment. What kind of an environmentalist is a Christian? [...]
