Obama, Values, & the Bible
If you were like me, the past few months leading up to the election have been draining. I’ve learned a lot about the candidates and myself. I posted my share of Obama criticisms (more than my share probably), and frankly I’m glad it’s all over. I have a new President, and that’s that.
But, this morning, [...]
Be Afraid, Very Afraid
On the same (or similar) topic as my last post, this post from Windblown Hope, with an article written by Mike Yaconelli encourages us to fear God.

As soon as it’s up and running, you’ll be able to get bible studies, chords, instructional videos & more.
My desire is for you [...]
A Little Bible Humor
