This is certainly not a rush to judgment, nor is it meant to be an attempt to vilify anyone especially since I don’t have all the facts. But since I can’t be silent, I’ll simply stick to discussing what we all already know because it’s been reported in the press. Steve McNair, former NFL MVP [...]

Read yesterday’s post here before you read this. So I’m trying to wrap my mind around this idea of ‘following’ God’s directives even when they don’t seem to make any sense whatsoever. In my recent life, I’ve wrestled with the idea of significance, having gone from a resource rich environment to planting a church that [...]

I spent all of last week immersed in Los Angeles. On Monday and Tuesday I took part in the Mosaic Church Immersion. On Wednesday it was Origins and on Thursday and Friday it was Catalyst. It was an incredible week of learning, processing, changing and connecting. There were a number of really great speakers at [...]

Recently I wrote an article in which I suggested that, if we had any idea as to where we’d be and what we’d be doing in the future, it would inform the choices and decisions we make today. I don’t know about you, but sadly, as a pastor I’ve had the unfortunate ‘task’ of having [...]

I cannot begin to describe to you what emotions this picture elicits in me. No doubt the bikers head is as vacuous as the ‘helmet’ he’s wearing, but in a strangely poetic sort of way, I can really understand why he’s doing it. You see, this photo was taken in the country of my birth, [...]

I’m ticked! I know, I know, it seems as if I’ve been ticked for a while now, right? Any way, this time I’m waxing philosophical on a completely different issue than politics or faith. One of the drawbacks of living in a country where everyone gets to excercise their ‘free-will’ freely, is that you have [...]

I have to admit to being stupefied by this photo! It was posted on ragamuffinsoul.com (Carlos Whittaker’s blog), and I couldn’t help copying the photo and pasting it here. I admit that I was pretty rankled when I read it. And we wonder why church attendance and the perceived relevance of Christianity is on the [...]
