Sober Minded

How can we disarm those we are witnessing to?
When the believer interacts with an unbeliever, seeking to share the good news of Jesus Christ, we have one great advantage- we’ve read their mail. That is, before the conversation even begins we know the unbeliever already knows God exists, … Continue reading

Clickety Do Daw
One of the troubles with inward sins is that they are inward. (The other trouble is that they are sins.) With inward sins, those we cannot measure objectively, it is all too easy to claim we have them whipped. When … Continue reading

Room 101
There is a simple enough test to see if someone has actually read George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four. All you have to do is utter the words “Room 101” and look to see if the person shudders. Those who have merely … Continue reading

Golden Rule Epistemology
It was an easy argument. As a graduate student in English at Ole Miss I had developed something of a reputation as a contrarian, a gadfly. Which led one colleague to ask me words to this effect- “RC, you always … Continue reading
