Taking a Stand on Abortion
In addition to this article, I include several other links in this article. I would love to encourage you to check them out, either as proof of my claims or in an effort to support a short article like this one. I have heard some people say that abortion, since Roe V Wade being overturned…Continue reading Taking a Stand on Abortion

Sex and Marriage Book Published!
Well, I am so proud to tell you that the book that Mark and I have been working on is finally done and is finally available and even stamped with a miracle – that God put me in touch with heroes of mine – Jeff and Shaunti Feldhahn! Someday, I will tell the story here…Continue reading Sex and Marriage Book Published!
Update Time
Because I have been working on a book (as well as developing a sermon each week and teaching in at least another venue or two each week), I have not been able to create the margin to publish here on my website for over a year! It has been sad for me to neglect this,…Continue reading Update Time
Recent Podcast Guest time!
I had the privilege to be on the Worship Hearts podcast to talk about the Tabernacle Worship:
UFOs are in the News (again) – Part III
I am sure that unless we are still shooting people’s hobby balloons out of the air, the recent alien hype is out of the headlines – unless it is back in it yet again! 2. This is my second-best and totally different guess: What we are seeing are expressions of the spiritual creation, which is typically invisible…Continue reading UFOs are in the News (again) – Part III
UFOs are in the News (again) – Part II
Now, first I have to get this out of the way: I think the vast majority of sighting and experiences of UFO’s are not unidentified, but merely misidentified. I think given the preponderance of “sky trash”, optical illusions, natural phenomena, and apparently Chinese Spy Balloons(!), almost all UFO sightings could be explained if we had enough information. I…Continue reading UFOs are in the News (again) – Part II
UFOs are in the News (again) – Part I
Editor’s note: These are the ramblings of an opinionated person, not the conclusions of a specialist speaking within a field of their education… but I think in some ways, that may be true of everyone in this “field”. Are there any other kind of UFO specialists other than “self-proclaimed” ones? Hmmm… maybe I am an…Continue reading UFOs are in the News (again) – Part I
Is the Trinity Rational? Part III
Now, why would God be three and one – what difference would that make? For a long time, many Christian theologians, I think, were taught like I was… that the Triune aspect of God’s nature was academic and interesting, but of no real practical value. I hinted earlier that recent discussions have focused in on…Continue reading Is the Trinity Rational? Part III
The Date Night of the Year
Ok, so we are being a little tongue-in-cheek when we make such a bold claim, but we do think it will be super fun and super encouraging and super helpful to your marriage! Join us!
Is the Trinity Rational – Part II
The Christian teaching of the trinity says that the eternal God has among His traits the characteristic of “One-ness.” This is a vital teaching for Christians since we are not polytheists. There is only One God. This teaching an be found clearly in the Jewish roots of Christianity – arguably the oldest of the Monotheistic…Continue reading Is the Trinity Rational – Part II
Is the Trinity Rational – Part I
Is the Christian doctrine of the “Trinity” rational? I am committed to the concept that God is a rational God. Let me make sure and clarify, though, since people do not know what that word means most of the time. I recently offered to come speak at an atheist’s meeting and described myself as a…Continue reading Is the Trinity Rational – Part I
Christmas Movies Defined Definitively part 3 – Die Hard
I love getting to the root of things. I honestly think that often we disagree because we don’t understand the foundations of our disagreements! Go back and read the basis for this article first, I recommend! I think much of what we think are merely political disagreements are actually differences in metaphysical thought! I think…Continue reading Christmas Movies Defined Definitively part 3 – Die Hard
Christmas Movies Defined Definitively Part 2
Consider this kind of a Christmas movie bingo. The more of these there are, the more likely the movie is to be a true Christmas movie: So far: comedy or epic with warm feelings at the end. things come together for the protagonist. new friendships are made. an old relationship is restored The “Grinch/Ebenezar” character…Continue reading Christmas Movies Defined Definitively Part 2
Christmas Movies Defined Definitively
Christmas Movie I am reposting what is arguably the most important and controversial series of articles ever. This is at the level of “who would win in a fight, Tony Stark or JARVIS?” but probably doesn’t quite rise to the “free will or predestination” conflict, it is something that I am finally going to settle…Continue reading Christmas Movies Defined Definitively
Examining the Temptation of Pornography Part III
In the research I have done over the last decade in my own battles and in preparation to speak, teach, and counsel on this topic, other tidbits have come up that have been impressive to me. I feel like I can certainly speak with confidence when I say that the money makers in the pornography…Continue reading Examining the Temptation of Pornography Part III
Examining the Temptation of Pornography – Part II
A man decides that one of their goals in life is to have a very nice watch. For them, whatever brand, is a measure of success… a $5000 watch. But they can only set aside $100 per month. 50 months… a little over 4 years. That’s a long time to wait for a goal. Now…Continue reading Examining the Temptation of Pornography – Part II
Examining the Temptation of Pornography Part I
The Thief comes to steal, kill and destroy; I have come that you might have life and have it abundantly.” Jesus Christ. For years I have talked to mostly men, and a few women, about issues connected to the temptations particular to pornography. Since the incidents of women engaging in pornography is apparently on the…Continue reading Examining the Temptation of Pornography Part I
