Hey, incoming college freshmen … I love all these pictures of you arriving on campus with your parents, decorating your dorm rooms, all that stuff. Keep posting. Brings back memories. What a big day in your lives. What a rush! I am so excited for you. Look, you’ve received a ton of advice already, but I want to offer some of my own. Take it or leave it, but at least think about it. Parents, feel free to share it with your kids if you’re too busy crying to tell them yourselves. 1. Congratulations! You are a (somewhat) independent adult now. Know what that means. ForRead More →

My friend Matt recently shared on his personal blog his opinions on Why Christians Shouldn’t Hold Political Office. It’s an interesting statement and one that immediately caused me to initially disagree with him. My initial thought is that we need MORE Christians in political offices. But Matt’s reasoning is based in scripture and honest reflection on the challenges facing a Christian holding such responsibilities. As I shared in my comment on his post though, I do still believe more Christians should be in political office, but I also believe holding a political office should really be no different than any other job.

Here’s my review of a recently released film titled “Like Arrows”. Although it is a average length for a feature movie, I’m not sure it comes across as a feature film instead of something more like an educational video or documentary of sorts. Before I dive in, here’s the official press release and movie synopsis: When conflict, rebellion, and resentment overwhelm their family, Charlie and Alice are forced to rethink their parenting strategy. In the process, they realize how critical intentionality and focus are when shaping and molding young lives. FamilyLife’s first feature film explores the challenges and joys that come with raising children. ThroughRead More →

Before the advent of DVR, I would get into a little communication trouble with my wife. Do you know what I’m talking about? She’d be recalling her day, spilling her heart in need of my attention only to realize that I had turned my head towards her but my eyes were on the TV. Truthfully, I wasn’t listening. Then, because she’s got a great sense of humor, she would launch into a wild story of mythical creatures with superhuman feats of strength; she was on to me.  The tables got turned on me. I was boarding a plane when it happened. The flight attendant wasRead More →

It’s been an absolutely crazy past couple of weeks for me and I’m overdue in getting this blog post published on a video titled “Patterns of Evidence – Exodus”. The video is the exploration of a filmmaker, Timothy Mahoney, as he experienced a personal crisis of faith as more and more scholars and even some religious figures make public statements of the biblical story of Exodus not being a factual account, but more of a moral fairytale. His own challenge was that if the account was not factual, doesn’t that cast doubt upon the validity of the rest of the Bible in its entirety? IRead More →
