  • Dear Gay Pastor

    Dear Gay Pastor

    Recently I saw an article about how you received a cake from a bakery, on which was a homophobic slur. As I read through the article, my mind raced and was troubled. It does not seem right that someone one persecute you on these grounds. Please understand that I am not addressing you with hate…

    Can you explain 2 Kings 2:23-25? -asked by a student at Gorman Baptist Church, Durham This is a story in Scripture where God’s prophet Elisha (who took Elijah’s position as God’s prophet) caused 2 female bears to come out of the woods and maul 42 children.

  • Response to “Jesus is Loving Barabbas – Judah Smith Sermon Jam”

    Response to “Jesus is Loving Barabbas – Judah Smith Sermon Jam”

    I keep seeing this video and I guess with this being Holy Week, videos like this one will be popular. I wasn’t sure why at first, but this video just doesn’t sit well with me. I’m sure Judah Smith (the lead pastor of the City Church network in WA) is a good guy, but this…

  • RE: Why is life so difficult?

    In Genesis, we read of how God created the world and created human kind in His image. Everything was good. People lived in harmony with nature.

  • Out with the old, in with the new! The constant battle between old church and new church and why I think it’s stupid.

    I must warn you in advance that this article will be slightly blatant, so church goers may want to use discretion if they are easily offended by people pointing out the weaker points of the church. If you do choose to read, my hope is that you seriously consider these words and know that I…

  • The dangers and advantages of social network parenting

                I remember when Facebook was brand new and the world was so excited about finally having a good social network. MySpace had become obsolete, except for those few Indie Musicians that kept it alive, and Xanga was not heard from again. Mark Zuckerberg became a household name, and boasted a digital conquest that rivaled…
