Repentance is hard because pride is easy.
We're now giving away our book The Cross and the Cannibal (dealing with cannibalism, Hannibal Lecter, and Christian theology) FREE in PDF form.
WANTED: Christians who know how to stand in the face of suffering and who refuse to bow in shame before all the latest and trendiest of ideas.
God: ‘Adam, did you eat the fruit I told you not to?’
Adam: ‘The WOMAN that YOU gave me led me to eat it!’
Victim culture has been around since the garden.
Communism is a dark and deadly parody of Christianity.
Got the cover illustration today for the upcoming book on Esther & Mordecai. Aimed at an older YA fantasy crowd. Thoughts?
Perfect love casts out all fear.

Fear not, for I am with you.

Socrates taught that a man doesn’t do right because he doesn’t understand it.
Jesus taught that a man doesn’t do right because he refuses to understand it.
‘Anyone who does not honour the Son does not honour the Father who sent Him.’

In the long run, it may be the choices we think of as ‘private’ that most shape our character—and therefore our destiny.
Pain isn’t optional. Progress is.
God is eternal and young.
Sin has made us temporary and old.
Repentance mourns past foolishness, but has hope for change in the future.
Remorse has no hope—it is stuck in the past.

How's our church doing amidst the panic-demic?
We reopened early in every way short of engaging in criminal activity. We meet outside our building on Sunday so we can sing and not require anyone to wear a mask.
The results are mixed. Some stay home and watch our live broadcast. But we've also had new people join as they share our priority of physically gathering. Some of the new people will return to their churches when they open. Some will stay with us permanently.
Our generation longs for justice, but doesn't want a judge.
We want a righteous world, but don't want to kneel before a righteous ruler.

Thinking that you deserve to be in heaven is evidence that you probably aren't headed there.
