Following a good discussion on evangelism last week and the prompting of my friend Matt, this week’s question builds from where we left off.
Do church programs help or hurt efforts to promote godliness in our everyday lives?
I posed this question at the end of last week’s discussion in regards to evangelism. To take it [...]

The Monday Muse: Church Programs
The Cross He Bore – Ch. 2 & 3
Reflections on Chapters 2 and 3 have been put up for discussion over at True Koinonia.
The Cross He Bore Book Study
Myself and a few guys from church have started getting together every Thursday night to discuss a book we are reading together called The Cross He Bore by Frederick Leahy. I have read several good recommendations for this little treasure and so far it has not disappointed. We are reading two chapters per week and [...]
California Ban on Homeschooling
My friend Lisa Huddleston recently sent me this email update of the court case in California concerning the ban on homeschooling in that state (point of clarification: the state would require all parents to have a teaching license in order to be “qualified” to teach their children in the home).

Some people might call Kansas St. taking down USC an upset (#11 beating #6) but I think that several people anticipated it. If Bill Walker and the rest of the Kats give Beasley this type of support the rest [...]
The Monday Muse: NCAA Tournament
I should seriously start calling this The Tuesday Muse. I have been a little busy lately so I haven’t been keeping up as faithfully with my posts. Annie and I are in the midst of making some big life decisions so pray that the Lord will give us guidance and discernment.
Ok…on to question of the [...]
We are the Beggars
My friend Matt Burns has written an excellent two part series (Part 1 and Part 2) that seeks to view the homeless through a biblical lens. He identifies several types of homeless people and then poses this question: ”So now I ask you , fine readers, what do you do? Do you give them the cash? Do you [...]
The Monday Muse: Educational Rights
It has been far too long since my last post. We traveled up to Michigan last Thursday night after work. Since it was in the midst of the busy time of the month at work, I had to work long hours so we could take off on Thursday. I’m still trying to get caught up [...]
