What a great Night
So I’m sitting here listening to music, reading commentaries on Ecclesiastes, and just thinking about how Big God is and how small I am, and I must say, I’m glad that I follow Him. I don’t need to have all the answers, I just have to trust. I don’t know if people without God putContinue reading “What a great Night”
Redeeming Technology
This post is actually a bit of a milestone for me. it’s post 250. WooHoo!!! So I thought that I would use this opportunity to write something meaningful.

Article discussing the Haggard Situation

Something to think about
Found this quote from Internet Monk, in this rather long post. In regards to the developing Haggard Controversy Evangelicalism wants same-sex issues to be political. They are not. They are issues about who you want to have sex with, and why. In other words, they are deeply human issues, for deeply broken human beings whoContinue reading “Something to think about”
Check Yourself
I don’t know what the truth of this matter. But this should serve as a reminder to anyone in christian leadership, that we always need to watch our lives. Even if these allegations pan out to be false in certain details, somewhere, Mr. Haggard allowed the appearance of evil. And he was caught. I knowContinue reading “Check Yourself”
