Watch Tremper Longman III as he speaks on the “literalness” of Genesis 1 & 2.

What do you think?
Does the Bible have to be factual (in the modern/scientific sense) in order to be true?
fight global poverty with one day’s wages
Extreme global poverty is one of the biggest issues facing our world.  The stats can be staggering and the problem can seem impossible to solve, so we get overwhelmed and we do nothing.  Fight the urge to do nothing.  Stand up for the world’s poor.  Give one day’s wage…0.4% of your annual salary…to fight global [...]

A friend brought this miniature wonderland to my attention.  Take a few minutes to be amazed at the work this team has done and the hours they have put into this creation.

forgiveness does not change the past
This is a powerful video about the limitations and benefits that come with forgiveness.  Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.

nothing. nada. jack squat.
Got a good laugh from SNL.  Maybe you will too.

Health care has certainly sparked quite a debate in our country these last several weeks.  I used to think that health care was simply a political issue, and that universal health care is obviously socialism.  Since I do not believe in socialism, I do not stand for universal health care.  But my perspectives are changing.

Phyllis Tickle is one of my favorite author/speakers.  She has phenomenal insight into our culture and the church.  Take a listen to what she says about the hyphenated church on this episode of think forward on theooze.tv with Spencer Burke.
video of pastor who hates president
All I can say is, “Wow!”
I’d like for this guy to tell us what he thinks about Jesus’ words to “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”

It is interesting to me to see how God uses fire as a symbol or image for himself.  In the wilderness the Jews look to a pillar of [...]

i missed the internet last week
Last week I was a counselor at Kids Kamp in Denton, MD.  The campground does not have internet access.  An unfortunate truth.   Anyway, I was there for five days and missed the internet, even though I was able to update twitter and facebook using my blackberry curve.  When you’re away from the internet [...]
