Following simple directions can make life so much easier
Each generation has had trouble with directions in some form. As much as I like to poke fun at the current generation, and it’s easy pickings because I teach in a college, I am reminded of my most embarrassing moment as well. In 9th grade biology we were given a list of instructions on a page. At the top it…

RIP Dean Smith
Great tribute HERE. There is a generation of great coaches passing from us. For guys like Dean Smith, it wasn’t just about a game. It was about life. He worked hard to help a lot of young men. He worked hard to help change a culture. RESPECT.

Christianity isn’t about a search for comfort
“Of course, I quite agree that the Christian religion is, in the long run, a thing of unspeakable comfort. But it does not begin in comfort; it begins in the dismay I have been describing, and it is no use at all trying to go on to that comfort without first going through that dismay. In religion, as in war…

Remembering Dr. King
Oppressed people cannot remain oppressed forever. The yearning for freedom eventually manifests itself, and that is what has happened to the American Negro. Something within has reminded him of his birthright of freedom, and something without has reminded him that it can be gained. Consciously or unconsciously, he has been caught up by the Zeitgeist, and with his black brothers…

NBC carried a story last night that remembered that tragedy and how one family came out of that tragedy after losing their daughter. She was there on a mission and had texted her parents that she knew what she wanted to do with the rest of…

The Kingdom of God and severe reactions
It’s a bit of an odd world when, in the past few weeks, we’ve had some deep American need to “defend free speech” by going to see a very stupid movie about North Korea. And now, it’s everyone claiming, “I am Charlie Hebdo” in response to the terrorist attacks in Paris on a satirical newspaper. We’re defending the right to…

Fearing Muslims?
Last Friday I began to see a link being passed around from an opinion piece on Charisma Magazine’s site. I didn’t have time to read it, but the reactions from it today are so strong, I went back to read it. The piece is no longer on Charisma’s site, but links can be found to cached sites and the “author’s”…

The silence is deafening
I just watched a statement from President Obama regarding the murder of journalist James Foley. With great care the president condemned ISIL for its horrendous act… and with great care once again he failed to mention ISIL’s systematic slaughter of Christians. I don’t want to dissect the president’s thinking. I want to voice my intense disappointment. Not just from him.…
