  • Drinking is a sin… At least, in America…

    There is no scriptural reference that explicitly states that drinking is wrong. In fact, in the recent research that I have done, it seems as though American Christianity was the first branch of Christianity that has referred to the act of drinking as a sin, and it has done so outrightly. I found this interesting.…

  • Check out my new book!

    Wednesday, I received the first copy of my new book, It’s An Every Day Thing. The book is all about discipleship. Here is the introduction:             Twenty-first century American Christianity is one of the most individualistic entities on the face of the planet. We attend meetings in the church house only to hear from God…

  • We can be perfect?

    Is it possible for any human being to be perfect, other than Jesus Christ? I remember, when I was younger, pretending to fight with my younger brother. I chased him into his room, and started punching the wood frame on his bed as he yelled each time my hand hit the hard surface. After a…

  • My Cynicism

    Growing up, I never dreamed that I would be where I am today. I never dreamed that I would have the opportunities that I have today or that God would use me in the capacity that He is using me today. This was not because I didn’t feel qualified or because I felt too insignificant.…

  • Re: My Faith Is Dying

    From: Losing Hope Subject: My Faith Is Dying _________________________ Dear Dedicated Christian, I was once as earnest and as vicarious in my faith as you seem to be now. I would have the close encounters with the presence I thought to be God and I would even experience the sensation of God’s words being spoken…

  • Re: Evolution

    From: concerned atheist Subject: Evolution To: Dedicated Christian _______________________________ Dedicated Christian, You probably hear this more than you care to, but nonetheless I have decided to inquire according to this issue. More and more, as time progresses, general human knowledge also progresses and, though we cannot confidently claim how the origination of the universe came…

  • Your Influence

    Over the course of our last few meetings together, we have been talking about how to fight the war we are on Earth to fight. We’ve been talking about how our lives need to be completely Christ-centered, how we only have one King (God), the fact that willingly serving God means that we actively take…
