A Steady Diet of Potato Chips

My wife and I had one of those discussions yesterday. (We really need to get back on the podcasting trail.) She revealed, not for the first time, that she was concerned about my daily internet intake. She made some good points. Many of the podcasts I listen to are labeled “Explicit” [...]

Bondage of the Will

Yeah my humility knows no bounds. I’m gonna name this post after arguably one of the greatest Christian writings outside of the Bible. Still it works as a blog post title and I trust that Martin Luther would forgive me.
I don’t want to talk about whether our will is free or not, that’s [...]

An Unknown God

We looked at Acts 17 this past Sunday, particularly this passage:
16While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was greatly distressed to see that the city was full of idols. 17So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the God-fearing Greeks, as well as in the marketplace day by day with those [...]

Something to Strive For

I’m a big fan of Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs This quote from a post on his blog entitled Sometimes You’re The Windshield & Sometimes You’re The Bug! are good words:
At base, I still believe that you should try your hardest and do your best at whatever task you undertake. Whether you’re splitting [...]

Making Sacrifices

I had a really good weekend overall. The highlight was a visit to see Sid and P. G.. After coming back from the pub Sid cracked open a bottle of twelve year old scotch and we sallied forth into some interesting discussions well into the wee hours.
The most interesting one (that I still [...]
