Having completed my series on Calvinism and Arminianism, I am now (by request) working on a series on basic Christianity. It is likely to be a long series of at least ten articles. I hope to post the first of them later this week. I just launched a new Web site for a friend of…
Today is my twenty seventh birthday. Since we have home church tonight we decided to have my birthday meal and do presents last night. Dinner wasn’t anything too special, but at least I didn’t have to help make it or do the dishes. As for my gifts, I received a good balance of music and…
Just for kicks I decided to change the back-end of this site from Geeklog to Movabletype. The changeover took a few hours of work (mostly hacking apart cascading style sheets) and quite a bit of frustration, but the move is nearly complete. I found Movabletype after Geeklog and found it had some neat features that…
There are some out there who are wondering what the plan is for this site. So I thought I’d share a bit of my vision for it. This site serves a couple of purposes. First, it gives me an outlet for writing. I enjoy writing, especially about spiritual topics, as I find it makes my…
You may have noticed that I recently linked to He Lives, an excellent blog I discovered a few weeks ago. The site proclaims itself the “Reformed viewpoint of a nuclear physicist.” The author, David Heddle, has written some very interesting and informative articles over the past year-and-a-half he has written on a variety of topics…
You have to admire Derek Webb for being a risk-taker. Not only did he take a risk by leaving one of the Christian music’s most popular and successful bands, but he then released an album that directly challenges the church with plenty of potent, hard-hitting lyrics. And this is an industry that really does not…
Remember the Sabbath day by keeping it holy. Six days you shall labor and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, neither you, nor your son or daughter, nor your manservant or maidservant, nor your animals, nor the…

Visitors to this site often ask my why I identify myself as a fundamentalist. Truth be told there are a few reasons. So let me cover the fundamentals of fundamentalism. Disappointed? As I mentioned, there is nothing revolutionary here! Simply good, old-fashioned Christianity.
The Jerusalem Post recently ran an article where they gave some rather startling statistics. Currently in the United Kingdom there are approximately 1,000,000 practicing Christians (no denominational breakdown of what that includes) and about 750,000 practicing Muslims. Now it is no great secret that church attendance in the United Kingdom has been plummetting in recent…
My computer is having a bad day. A really bad day. I was just working away and suddenly started getting error messages left, right and centre. Scans and reboots have not helped the situation at all. So now I am forced to go and buy a new hard drive and begin the slow, tedious process…
I owe some thanks to my buddy Dave who introduced me to iTunes. iTunes is an excellent media player created by Apple. Usually the fact that Apple made it would be more than enough to turn me off of it, but based on Dave’s recommendation I decided to give it a try. And I am…
