How to Get a Girl Who’s Better Than You

January 27, 2015 by JP 3 Comments

Okay, this one’s for the guys. I know what you’re all thinking boys. Beneath that Christian veneer, there’s a man who, if he’s single, has one thing on his mind other than loving God and finding the quickest path onto the water after work. It’s how to get a girl. Maybe you’re at the wife […]

If You Accuse Someone of Judging, You’re Judging. Period.

January 26, 2015 by JP 2 Comments

No one likes a judgmental Christian. But most people are more than happy to snap out an instant judgment that someone else is judging them. They do exactly what they accuse others of doing by assuming someone else is doing it. “I disagree with you,” isn’t powerful enough without being punctuated with, “because you’re looking down on me, you hater!” Judging is the ultimate insult. But it’s […]

Does God Want You to Be Lazier?

January 22, 2015 by JP Leave a Comment

January 14, 2015 by JP Leave a Comment

Jesus once asked the question, “Who is my neighbor?” And you know, I can’t answer that. But I can tell you who my celebrity is. — If Jesus had come to the United States instead of Bethlehem to save the world, he probably would’ve come to Nebraska. This would’ve made up for all the jokes I’ve […]

Is Your Light Blocking Jesus?

January 12, 2015 by JP 7 Comments

You are the light of the world. But if the light loses its illumination, how can it become light again? — My son and I were playing in our living room when he stopped and cowered. “Dock, Daddy.” He pointed to a shadow behind our couch, the crease where the back meets the wall and imaginations […]

Your Light is Worth Nothing Without Salt

January 9, 2015 by JP 1 Comment

Packed in the middle of the Beatitudes, nestled amidst the merciful, those who mourn, and a righteousness that surpasses that of the Pharisees, is a pair of metaphors that holds the key to your faith. If you can’t remember the meeks or poor in spirits, if you don’t quite know what it means to fulfill the Law and the Prophets, pay attention to these little metaphors and you’ll […]

5 Things I Wish False Teachers Would Admit About the Bible

December 31, 2014 by JP Leave a Comment

The Bible. I have a soft spot in my heart for every new Christian who wants to learn about God and grow in personal faith and maturity through the Bible. A deep, warm, fuzzy soft spot. And in contrast, I have a hard spot for everyone who gets people to question that Bible, especially experts […]
