Sign of the Times
I saw the link to this at Jesus Creed, but it’s from a story at CNN. The preacher makes up his own signs, and he says, My intention was to use a double entendre – to demonstrate a sense of … Continue reading
Report on the Kindle in Action
As I mentioned before leaving on vacation, I bought a Kindle from Amazon. The idea was to avoid having to carry a ton of books on the flight. I’d been putting off buying several books until my birthday, and my … Continue reading
The Holy Spirit: The Synoptic Gospels, Part 2
The baptism of Jesus (Mat 3:15-17 ESV) 15 But Jesus answered him, “Let it be so now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he consented. 16 And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from … Continue reading
The Holy Spirit: The Synoptic Gospels, Part 1
Matthew, Mark, and Luke are very similar in the teachings on the Spirit, and relate many of the same events, often in nearly the same words. I’ll work primarily in Matthew, but cite to the parallels. Conceiving the Messiah The … Continue reading

The Political Church: Framing the Discussion
Pictures have frames to separate them from their surroundings, to help the eye distinguish the picture from the noise of the background. The frame helps us see the picture for what it really is. When we discuss politics from the … Continue reading
The Gospel You’ve Never Heard: What a Protestant Bible written by Jews says about God’s work through Christ (A book for those in the church and those offended by it), by David I. Rudel
Well, it finally happened. I signed up with Viral Ooze to receive books to review, the deal being I have to post a review (good, bad, or indifferent), but I get the book for free. Which is very cool, except … Continue reading
