We have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all the saints – the faith and love that spring from the hope that is stored up for you in heaven and that you have already heard about in the word of truth, the gospel that has come to [...]

Of course, I’ve had a lot of time to formulate my opinion about divinity since that night on the bathroom floor when I spoke to God directly for the first time. In the middle of that dark November crisis, though, I was not interested in formulating my views on theology. I was interested only in [...]

This is an excerpt from here: follow the link to read the whole thing… ========================== Love is a beautiful and wonderful and even sacred thing…but until it arrives, shouldn’t we give ourselves permission to THRIVE? The thing that the movies and greeting cards and your great-aunt Ida who shoots sympathetic looks your way and slips [...]

So, here’s my confession: I am a Quran burner… Oh, I’m not planning to actually burn the Muslim Holy Book on Saturday, but in many ways, I may as well have. Or perhaps I’m a Bible burner, or a Gita burner or a Book of Mormon burner. Anytime I refuse to acknowledge the humanity of [...]

Also, what I have found many people have done, is read that because I don’t want to be a Pastor, I have given up on the whole idea of Church. Not so. I have nothing against ‘Church’, how could I? It’s, by definition, a collection of people choosing to band together so they can better [...]

It’s excerpt friday, and without further adieu… =========================== I think Christianity should come with a disclaimer. Something like… to find your life you must lose it…or take up your cross daily…or something like that. I heard somewhere that following Jesus will wreck you….this has become more and more aparent as I grow up. When you’re [...]

Does hell exist? If there was no heaven/hell would you still believe as you do? Would knowing there was a literal heaven/hell change your beliefs or the way you live? =================== I’d much rather hell not exist. I’d rather go to heaven and find out that everyone got there. It wouldn’t bother me in the [...]
