Someone is Wrong on the Internet: A Complaint
It takes two to tango, and that doesn’t even include the band. Our choices, our behaviors, are rarely as discreet as we think they are. Not only do our decisions bleed into our other decisions, they touch on other people’s … Continue reading

And It Came to Pass: His Constant Victory

How Dumb to Think Smart Is a Fruit of the Spirit
Leave it to Reformed people to miss the point. When Paul describes the body of Christ as a body, part of which includes hands, ears, and so forth, we are quick to mark our territory. We are the brain of … Continue reading

Last Things First: Jesus Is Lord Now and Forever
