Stricken, Smitten and Afflicted by the Father
It is natural, though altogether wrong, to think that when we turn from the Old to the New Testament that we are entering more gentle times, that God in the interim became kinder and gentler. We do not see in … Continue reading
Quick to Listen, Slow to Speak, Slow to Become Angry
Movements move, eventually, off the mark. This may be because movements require two dangerous but potent ingredients- single-mindedness and certainty. One does not give birth to a movement while spinning multiple plates. One doesn’t change the collective wisdom of the … Continue reading

Defending Loose Cannons, and Trump’s Loose Tongue
The charge of hypocrisy sticks. Perhaps because we are all worse than our own standard. We rebuke the other guy, only to find that we too are guilty. The only good news I can offer is that it works both … Continue reading
Worshipping Your Own Personal “Higher” “Power”
It is not a difficult thing to discern the nature of someone else’s god. Some people carry their religion on their sleeve, advertising their spiritual commitments on bumper stickers or t-shirts. You can tell the Amish by their clothing, even … Continue reading

The Word of His Power; The Power of His Word
I think we’ve got omniscience wrong. Yes, it certainly means all knowing. And yes, certainly God knows all things. It’s important to affirm as well that His knowledge overlaps with our knowledge. When we say 2+2=4 we are agreeing with … Continue reading
Growing Pains: Annihilating God’s Character
Our little corner of the interwebs is up in arms over actor Kirk Camerson’s recent admission that he is finding the doctrine of annihilation to be preferable to the doctrine of eternal conscious torment for those who die outside of … Continue reading

Beholding the Lamb of God: The Forever Gospel
Our hindsight encourages our arrogance. Rather than gratitude for all we’ve been shown we scoff at those who saw less. We expose our ingratitude for the full revelation of God’s Word by laughing at those who lacked it. Indeed we’re … Continue reading
Missing the (Decimal) Point
It’s a volatile real estate market out there. Prices have, in the past few years, shot through the roof faster than, well, faster than the last real estate bubble we had. And they have also come crashing down, when the … Continue reading
Would a Man Rob God? Would a Government Do the Same?
The question on its face seems rather insane. It demands not just a “no” but a “by no means.” If not a “why would you ask such a stupid question?”. I ask the question, however, because God Himself once asked … Continue reading

Giving Thanks in Times Like These And All Others
I will not dispute that these are not the best of times. As a nation we are drowning in red ink. Around the globe, soldiers, civilians and believers are falling by the sword. Yet, the liturgy of our year, by … Continue reading
