Hi! Welcome!

So glad you're okay! Prayers for you and your family. There is hope in the stars!

Ready for it? It’s DESPERATE for it!!

Truth #1: Church hurt is real.
Truth #2: Churches can be sanctuaries of healing.
Both can be true simultaneously. What needs to happen for the second truth to impact the first one?

One Breath Away from God How we think about our lives and our savior greatly impact how we face suffering and death. I learned this when I met Dr. Bill Bright a few months before he met Jesus face-to-face.

I see what you did there… 😂

Your paintings are magnificent! I bought a DS9 print for a friend for Christmas, and he absolutely loves it.

I made a nerdy blunder preaching today. I was listing names of Jesus and tried to say Yeshua Hamashiach, but mistakenly said “Haderach” for the last part. As in, “Kwizatz Haderach.” I immediately corrected myself. I could have let it stand to see who caught it! More likely I’d be called a heretic… 😂

Agreed. I once talked about getting ready for the “increasingly complex” moral questions of the 21st century. I was wrong. The most heated moral questions of today aren’t new or complex at all. We are called today to state what should be obvious.

That. Is. Fantastic.

I’m excited to watch Skeleton Crew today! After the last few months of election drama, vitriol, and mudslinging, I’m ready to just enjoy some fun science fiction / fantasy. Star Wars, Star Trek, Dune… doesn’t matter. I’m an equal opportunity nerd.

One of the many, many things that troubles me about our current political and social climate is how viciously we denigrate and “other” those who are different than us or believe differently. Every person is made in God’s image and inherently worthy of respect. Perhaps change begins with us. #honor

Welcome, Doug! Action Saru is in the house!!

Things I’m tired of explaining to people on Twitter:

• Yes, scientists know more than you do.

• No, your own “research” is not better than peer-reviewed data.

• Your vs. You’re

• No, Hitler did not have a point.

• A constitutional republic is a form of democracy.

Who'd of thought King Solomon would have had anything to say about Social Media? Prov. 11:12, "Whoever belittles his neighbor lacks sense, but a man of understanding remains silent."

I wish we still had you in that spot, sir.

Please and thank you!! And stop making him out to be an evangelical.

Never underestimate people’s capacity to choose the golden calf, long to return to Egypt, beg for a king, embrace familiarity and comfort rather than progress and discomfort, and be moved by fear and anger rather than courage and love. The way of Jesus calls us to rise above this.
