Shining Your Light In The Face of Fascism

Last updated on: January 27, 2025 at 9:57 pm By Keith Giles

In a world shadowed by the resurgence of authoritarianism and fascism, I believe it is vital to remember the power of light—my light and yours. Standing against darkness requires not only resistance but also the intentional act of creation. As Socrates once said, “The secret of change is to focus all your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new.” These words resonate deeply with me, offering a blueprint for how I can combat the shadows of...

Some translators of Mary’s Gospel render the passage in the Gospel of Mary above not as “…let us praise his greatness, for he has prepared us and made us humans,” but rather as Mary saying that Jesus has “made us male.” If we accept

The Gospel According to David Lynch

Last updated on: January 23, 2025 at 8:53 pm By Keith Giles

David Lynch (January 20, 1946 – January 15, 2025) was a visionary artist and cinematic genius whose surrealist work established him as an absurdist virtuoso filmmaker unlike any we have ever witnessed before. His “Lynchian” style blended nightmarish realism with deadpan humor to create a decidedly Americana-flavored existential horror show that many of us couldn’t get enough of. Most people discovered his work when his “Twin Peaks” television series introduced us to the unsolved mystery of who killed Laura Palmer... Read more

This might be a little late for some of you, but I wanted to go ahead and put it out there that I am no longer a Creedal Christian. Some of you won’t be too surprised by that statement.

Could the Apostle Paul Get It Wrong?

Last updated on: January 20, 2025 at 11:27 pm By Keith Giles

If you’ve spent any time diving into the writings of the Apostle Paul, you’ve likely wrestled with some big questions. Questions like: Could Paul ever have been wrong about something? Could his views have changed over time? And what did Paul really mean when he talked about being “in Christ”? The Humanity of Paul First, let’s be clear: Paul was human. He wasn’t some untouchable, infallible being floating around in the first century. He was a guy who had strong... Read more
