The Consistency of Young Age Creationism
Last week my family took an impromptu vacation to Kentucky to see the Creation Museum and the Ark Encounter. We went about three years ago, and now that the kids are a bit older, we thought it might be a bit more fun and even a bit educational. We were right! They...
Truth As Polemic
In response to my blog yesterday, a reader and friend responded with some thoughts of his own. One struck my attention…it seems obvious, but I had never really thought about it before. The observation is that truth always functions as a polemic against what is false....
How to Do Biblical Theology Without Sacrificing “Literal” Truth
As I have expanded my horizons a bit and start learning from teachers who don’t always fit within my theological “comfort zone,” I have found an…interesting…phenomena that seems to be a result of bad thinking. I love the theology of the Hebrew Bible. More and more, I...
Walt Disney: Theologian, Unaware
Lately, I have been quite intrigued by the work of Walt Disney. As a visionary entrepreneur, I’m interested in how folks like him pushed the boundaries of what was thought possible. What may surprise you, though, is how he was unknowingly an important theological...

Enduring in the Work
Note: This post makes mention of Ravi Zacharias. It is with a heavy heart that I must acknowledge a tragic independent report concerning evidence of sexual abuse and predatory behavior on the part of Ravi Zacharias. This man was a huge inspiration to me, as is evident...
Another Update (And Talking About Door Demons)
Hello, friends! It has been a short while since our last time together, and I wanted to pop in for a few moments to give an update, some announcements, and share with you a message I gave recently at church. Here are some important highlights/links you may want to...
