Martin Scorsese’s Silence: Is Some Soil too Rocky for Jesus?

Last updated on: January 15, 2017 at 9:29 am By Jonathan Dorst

In the song “The Silence of God,” Andrew Peterson sings: It’s enough to drive a man crazy, it’ll break a man’s faith It’s enough to make him wonder, if he’s ever been sane When… Heaven’s only answer is the silence of God It’ll shake a man’s timbers when he loses his heart When he has to remember what broke him apart When the crying fields are frozen by the silence of God… What about the times when even followers get...

Suffering Is The Key To Your Contentment

Last updated on: January 12, 2017 at 3:42 pm By Jack Lee

A paradox that I find extraordinary is that you will find true godly contentment not by removing the burdens that weigh on you, but by adding to them. Read more

On Prayer And The New Year

Last updated on: February 7, 2017 at 1:32 pm By Taylor Drummond

I am not suggesting that one replace his whole prayer time with reading prayers or that he give up spontaneous praying in favor of reading prayers, but that he add to those disciplines the practice of reading prayers written by others. I suggest this resolution for the following reasons. Read more

Drowning in His Own Private Ocean: Denzel Washington’s Fences

Last updated on: December 28, 2016 at 10:19 am By Jonathan Dorst

My father grew up in a poor neighborhood in Pittsburgh, PA called Hazelwood in the 1950’s and ‘60’s. He used to play basketball with a kid from the neighborhood named Freddie Kittell. All the kids thought Freddie was pretty strange because he almost never talked and would often play ball barefoot, even in the winter. Even though he dropped out of high school in the 10th grade, it turns out Freddie was nurturing a rich inner thought life that would... Read more

Andy Stanley: Please Relent or Step Down from Pastoral Ministry

Last updated on: December 28, 2016 at 6:11 pm By Grayson Gilbert

If anyone has not heard by this point, Andy Stanley, being infamous for making some foolish statements about the nature of the church and the scriptures, has done it yet again. Yet the interesting thing here for those paying close attention, is that the recent debacle over him making the claim that Christianity doesn’t hinge off of the biblical account of the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, is really just the outworking of his previous statements. Incidentally, it also mirrors... Read more

Jesus Is For Losers (Did You Know That, Mary?)

Last updated on: December 21, 2016 at 11:52 am By Jonathan Dorst

Mary was the perfect mother for Jesus. Because she was poor and lowly, and willing to be used of God. She was a loser in what most people think is important in life. But, God loved her and blessed her. She would lose everything through this experience, but she would gain everything through God’s plan. Read more

Bibliotheca Bible – a Review

Last updated on: December 20, 2016 at 5:14 pm By Grayson Gilbert

There are many things that I have great admiration for, but perhaps one of the things I enjoy the most is seeing a long-awaited, labor of love come to full fruition. The tenacity, hard work, dedication, and pitfalls along the way in seeing something through to the end is something that, for lack of better terms, gets me emotionally invested in a project. Yet not all projects are equal and not all catch my particular attention – but if we’re... Read more
