Thursday, January 29, 2015. Sam Smith has a great song getting a lot of play on the radio these days called Stay with Me. And which is nominated for a Grammy. There are two phrases (six notes) that match a song by Tom Petty which you can hear in the mash up below. And yet another one. I am sure that if we looked a b...

Wednesday, July 29, 2015. Huckabee is not worthy. Mike Huckabee should be ashamed of himself but instead he is doubling down. Mike Huckabee has removed himself from any serious consideration as a political candidate and has called into question his right to call himself a follower of Jesus. Tuesday, July 28, 2015.

Thursday, January 13, 2011. Teaching New Year's Resolution?

I wonder if the average high school teacher would be willing to do this. Http:/ geekaca...

Tuesday, July 08, 2014. A few years ago I was on a flight and got talking with a woman who was an orthodox Calvinist. Before we left the plane she remarked that we worshiped a different Jesus. She was probably correct. There are more than one important areas of life where such a distinction is possible. Promote Your...

Thin Places - those places or events in life where the dividing line between the holy and the ordinary is very thin. to the point that the ordinary becomes holy and the holy becomes ordinary. Thursday, August 27, 2015. Who Gets to Decide. Once I had a discussion with a hyper-conservative Calvinist. At the end of our talk, she remarked, "We worship a different Jesus." She was right. It doesn't seem unreasonable then that the same title doesn't fit both of us. So, who gets to decide? I would also argue tha...
