But by the grace of God, I am what I am.

Donny Pauling (porn producer turned Christian) is an online acquaintance of mine, and last night he was on Dateline with Craig Gross (of xxxchurch.com), Ron Jeremy, and Monique Alexander (both porn stars) in a debate that was filmed as part of Yale University’s Sex Week.
I actually missed Dateline last night because I had company, but […]

I listened to the next sermon in Rob Bell’s Phillippian series.
Wow.
I must have read this book a hundred times. But I never saw this prayer for what it is:
And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern […]

Two things of interest appeared in my Google Reader today from Relevant magazine. One was a blog post from over there, that has appeared to have disappeared from the site. That makes me sad. The other was this article - Lessons from a Wiccan.
Here are the parts that stood out to me the most, but […]

My pastor just concluded a series on sex called “Going All the Way.” It was a really good sermon series - not stuff you generally hear in a church service. Sunday’s message was a Q+A session. People had been submitting questions anonymously to Pastor Jeff through the website, and he picked many of them (a […]

Before the batteries in my iDog died, I was listening to the next podcast by Rob Bell in his series on Phillippians (Grace and Peace was the first).
Wow. He digs in deep and pulls out some great stuff. What you’re about to read comes from only the first 6 or 7 minutes of the message […]

Most of you know that I’ve given up TV for Lent in an effort to find an intimacy with God that has been missing in my life. So tonight, while my roommate was in the living room watching American Idol without me, I listened to a podcast from Mars Hill Church, of which Rob Bell is […]

This is harder than I thought. Not giving up TV. That was surprisingly easy. But it’s hard to use the new time that I’ve gained to actually spend time with my Creator. It’s far too easy to simply replace TV with something else (like reading, blogging, or Stumbling).
And simply replacing TV with another activity completely defeats […]

I really like reading the Sermon on the Mount in the Message. Especially the part about salt and light:
Let me tell you why you are here. You’re here to be salt-seasoning that brings out the God-flavors of this earth. If you lose your saltiness, how will people taste godliness? You’ve lost your usefulness and will […]

I belong to my lover, and his desire is for me.
I’ve said before that I’m not in love with God. For me, God has always been a father figure, not a lover.
Tonight I finished reading (rereading, actually), Ted Dekker’s Circle Trilogy. These three books are among my all time favorite books, but I’ve never seen […]
