All the Single Ladies, NOW PUT YOUR HANDS UP!

February 14, 2014 by Angela 9 Comments

I think it’s the one song that as a single girl we get excited about and rush to the dance floor at a wedding. “If you liked it then you shoulda’ put a ring on it.” Then we’re like “YEAH! I’m single! Whoah oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh.” Then […]

10 Ways to Make the World Love You

February 12, 2014 by JP 2 Comments

This world is a tough place to be a Christian. We’re criticized and looked down on. We’re criticized for criticizing and looking down on. We’re too stupid to be considered human, yet barely non-vegetative enough to still be bigots. And if you’ve followed my ten ways to make Christians love you (and a few people still do), there’s a good chance non-Christians […]

The Secret to Stopping Lust: Don’t Do It!

February 10, 2014 by R. Daniel 11 Comments

Don’t think of a pink elephant! I bet I can guess what you are thinking about. In the movie Inception, a character addressed the easiest way to plant an idea in a person’s mind…tell them not to think about it. Don’t look down! Who hasn’t been up high and heard someone shout this never followed […]

A Crisis of Hero and Villain Within

February 3, 2014 by JP Leave a Comment

You shouted, “Yes!” and fist pumped. Peyton Manning threw his second interception. Your heart leapt for joy. Richard Sherman lay writhing in a heap. You alternately rejoiced or mourned as superhumans on display rose or toppled in glorious, otherworldly fashion. In the Colliseum of our day. The altar of pop culture achievement. The Super Bowl. […]

10 Ways to Make Christians Love You

January 23, 2014 by JP 7 Comments

(Some of the following are great choices if God leads you to make them on a personal level. The problem comes in when we believe they are automatically better for everyone and the standard for maturity in Christ. Confession: I listen to Christian music and hate gory movies. -JP) Everyone knows Christians are supposed to love […]

Pilgrim’s Regress

January 21, 2014 by R. Daniel 1 Comment

Today I, Richard Demsick, am going on a pilgrimage with my wife. No, we aren’t going to wear funny hats and have dinner with native Americans. Well we might be wearing funny hats, but they will be Kippahs because we are going to Israel. That’s right, a fool is traveling to the Holy Land, where […]

Do You Really Love Me?

January 16, 2014 by JP 6 Comments

Sometimes we love people close to us so much we forget to love them. I know. I’m guilty of it. When Jesus met Peter on the beach over brunch of broiled fish and a toasty fire, after that awkward “Do-I-know-you” head tilt move at Jesus in Pilate’s courtyard, he had only one question. He asked […]

Why Your Church is Run Poorly

January 13, 2014 by R. Daniel 6 Comments

 The First Administrator If there is anything I have been criticized for in my approach to church it is administration. After being told enough times that you are bad at administration you start to believe it. You don’t question the understanding of administration, and what makes a good administrator, when the world seems to hold […]

1984: What Do You Know?

January 6, 2014 by R. Daniel 1 Comment

1984: Do You Know Big Brother? Book Review In a future not far from today, a poster lines the city streets, cameras on every corner. The poster; the face of a man of about forty-five, with a heavy black moustache and ruggedly handsome features, and the words “Big Brother is Watching You”. I don’t know […]
