Bob Kauflin pointed to this song by Aaron Keyes & Stuart Townend. It’s a good one!


Obama’s Abortion Extremism

Canadian Elections
Yesterday Canada elected its second consecutive Conservative government. This at a time when it appears the US is on the verge of electing what may be its most liberal government ever. Food for thought.


The Flat World Myth
This article deals with the myth that “In the days of Christopher Columbus, everyone thought the world was flat.”

  • Conform

    You Can Conform to Christ Even if You Don’t Conform to Me

    One of the aspects of the Christian faith that I find particularly perplexing is the freedom God gives his people to obey him in different or even opposite ways, so that one person’s obedience is another person’s disobedience. Even as two people take the same action, one might be obeying him and the other disobeying…
