I saw this phrase in a catalog from a Christian publisher — “vocational ministry” — and it got me thinking about what types of ministry there are and which one I am doing. Once you consider the matter, it seems clear that not all those who minister are doing what amounts to a vocation, a … More What Type of Minister Are You?

I saw this wonderful article on Ask Yer Mom, which is a great site for clear and concise advise. She points out several things about honesty that we all should know and follow. http://blog.askyermom.com/2015/10/22/why-should-i-be-honest/ Go, read the article, and comment there if it moves you.

I recently acquired my own copy of Rob Bell‘s book, Love Wins, which made quite a splash when it came out. I read it a few years ago, and it may be a while before I read it again, so this is not a book review. Consider it a few observations about the reaction to … More On Love Wins

Spitting into the online ocean.
Dear reader, I have bled every single emotion and I have tried my best to put them in these pages. I will write until you run out of tears to find in these words. Tears that are products of every dote you lost, products of so much affliction that they never had enough strength left to carve their path tracing down your cheeks. And I will be honest with you to say that I am not there with you. Truth be told, I am mostly not in these writings. In fact, I have never been in any real relationship that I wander at the thought of whether I have any right to write about these things. But I am a wallflower, in the eighteen years that I have lived I have seen the people around me break so hard that they crumble back to their cradle. Love is a different kind of war but as long as I am standing I will give a hand to those who have fallen. These writings are not about me, despite most being written in first person. I want you to find yourself in them. I want you to find yourself and get yourself back.
