May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy, giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his [...]
In reading the history of the church, one is likely to come across the Battle of Tours in which Charles Martel (“The Hammer” [Can I get a manly nickname like that?]) saved the West from being overrun by Islam in the Middle Ages. Is it right and proper to thank God for men such as [...]
Joshua Harris has a good post My One and Only Week on Facebook in which he gives several reasons for his ditching the famed socialization portal:
“I don’t need another reason for staring at a computer screen.”
“I found that it encouraged me to think about me even more than I already do…I need to grow in [...]

Then, it turns out, George W. has been caught in similar attire, save the camo. One small difference though: it looks as though [...]
This is too funny and therefore dedicated to Geth.
Peep the posters. Dare I reproduce them here? Maybe just one:
Everyday I want to ask myself why I’m here. I need the reminder. Jesus’ words about worrying ring in my ear, Isn’t life more than eating and drinking? (Matthew 6:25). My friends the drafters of the Westminster Catechism nailed it: I’m here to glorify God and enjoy him forever; not to drive around looking for [...]
