TIGER - a first chapter
"I prayed for you a couple mornings ago." I was groggy, so ended up saying whatever first came to mind. "Really? What time?" Dad asked with sudden urgency. "About 6:40 my time on Sunday morning." Dad took a split second second to calculate. "So 2:40 in the afternoon here?" "No, more like 3:40." …

Some thoughts on the 08 election Category: News and …
It's no secret that I have been an ardent supporter of Mike Huckabee. Why? He's a Christian conservative with great ideas and he communicates them well. Proof: I agree with the vast, vast majority of these ideas -- especially on the Sanctity of Human Life -- cheering and sometimes laughing …

Awesome story - you gotta read this Category: Blogging
So there’s this church in Charlotte, NC called Kinetic Church. Like many start-up churches, they meet in a school over the weekend--so all their lighting, band equipment, etc. is stored in a trailer.Back in early March 08, that trailer was stolen. Everything the church owned: gone. Just this w …

Obama vs. Huckabee
Hey folks, I've recently been in dialogue with a few different bloggers about Mike Huckabee vs. other candidates. Since the discussion below occurred publicly on the blog Revolutionary Error (as well as via e-mail), there should be no issue re-posting it here. I invite the blogger Ben to reply furth …

And now... we conservatives are faced with a decision.The talk of Pat Robertson endorsing Rudy Giuliani now means nothing (not that it ever did!)Neither does anyone care about the wide evangelical support that Mitt Romney won over. We now have, on the left, Senator John McCain whom Dr. James Dobson …

Trauma Care: Thoughts after LASIK Surgery and a Close-to-home Tragedy …
Trauma isn't the same as physical pain. In two very different events of late, I've found it to be shocking... unsettling... a feeling that pushes me to disconnect from reality. Imagine it's not happening. Keep telling myself it won't last long. You see, I had LASIK done on my eyes November 9. Then, …

The message this morning at New Life: "A Heart for Christmas" …
In light of the tragedy unfolding right now at New Life, perhaps God would tell us something from the message that was delivered this morning. Dr. Jack Hayford was the visiting speaker on Sunday, December 9. (I went to the early service; the incident with the shooter occurred 30 minutes after the se …

"Things might have been different, but they could not have been better" …
I love that quote from Professor J.R.R. Tolkien. He applies it to his stories, wherein heroes experience great hardship and frustration before they discover a glorious future at the end. As the much-publicized "transition" chapter at New Life Church closes--and Pastor Brady Boyd becomes our new lead …

What is Love? :: Care for Others
"The Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." - Matthew 20:28Whereas my motives get cloudy and second-guessed, Jesus has only one secret ambition: to give His life away. True love is based on meeting the desires of others, not myself. This is w …

What is Love? :: Challenge Category: Life
"As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." - Proverbs 27:17 There were moments on Desperation Tour when, I confess, I had a sense of being Old School, of "been there, done that." It was my 3rd annual trip with this team, helping to lead prayer and worship nights for 10 days. But the cast …

What is Love? :: Trust Category: Life
In the past few months, I've had the chance to visit seven states: Florida, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, Illinois and Texas.

RE: Does praise music stink? Category: Music
This is in response to a lively WorldMagBlog discussionDid anyone catch a series of articles that Chuck Colson wrote last year on the topic of worship?
