This is one of those posts where I’m hoping that you, my wonderful readers, will comment at great length on your blogs and or in the comments below. I’m trying to figure out what the buzzword/catchphrase “social justice” means in terms of Christianity. Why?
Well maybe you heard about what Glen Beck said:
I’m begging [...]

In the Presbyterian Church we practice the baptism of infants. It was a bit of a change to me given my Baptist/Methodist background. Once I thought about it a bit and saw how it went down though I was largely okay with it. It’s basically almost identical to a baby dedication similar [...]

This is my stab at Alan Knox’s Scripture as We Live It series, wherein he takes a piece of scripture and shows how we most often live it out. Apologies to Alan if this falls flat.
But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel thing other than that which [...]

Here’s an interesting quote from Stealing Jesus:
For some people “are atheists because of a higher implicit theism than that professed by believers. They reject God because His name has been taken in vain, and they are unable to distinguish between His holiness and its profanation.” In other words, they rebel, both intellectually and morally, against [...]

According to Wikipedia “Parkour (sometimes also abbreviated to PK) or l’art du déplacement [1] (English: the art of moving) is the physical discipline of training to overcome any obstacle within one’s path by adapting one’s movements to the environment.” You’ve seen these guys jumping around like monkeys/Spiderman and in case you still don’t know [...]

I cast some thoughts about friendship here, mostly about Christians limiting their friendships. Today I’d like to noodle on social media and “friending”. I tweeted a couple of questions over the weekend:
What does being a friend mean to you? What does it take for you to call someone your friend?
How has social media [...]

I asked a question on Twitter last week, the gist of which was, “why do I only see praise for podcast novels in the public stream. It generated quite a brisk conversation. I decided to create an audio response to the feedback. I hope you enjoy it!

Dan Sawyer answered my opening volley in our debate on science and religion in a post titled A Skin-Deep Territory Distinction. He makes some good points regarding areas where science and religion touch, overlap and even (as he says) aim for the same territory. For the most part I don’t think I can [...]

Periodically (weekly I believe) there’s a chat on Twitter about science fiction called appropriately enough, SciFiChat. The whole think is conducted by making sure that everyone involved includes the hashtag #scifichat in their tweets. This ensures that everyone can see what’s being said even if you don’t follow everyone involved. You can [...]
