Should Churches Be Allowed to Meet in Public Schools?

Last updated on: January 23, 2012 at 1:19 pm By Tim Suttle

New York City Housing Authority officials have notified all of the churches who rent space in their public schools that they are no longer welcome as of Feb. 12. This decision came without warning and some say it threatens to violate an earlier Supreme Court Ruling on religious use of public space. After numerous protests and even 43 arrests, it’s happening. Here’s a snarky NYTimes editorial about it. Here’s an article on the protests. It begs the questions – should... Read more

Monday Morning Confessional

Last updated on: January 23, 2012 at 7:45 am By Tim Suttle

I confess that one of the more annoying pre-holiday issues in 2011 was that our refrigerator died. Almost everything in it was ruined and we had to drop a thousand dollars on the unplanned purchase of a new fridge. I confess that this is why I’m doubly annoyed by the fact that our washing machine died last week & we had to buy a new one. I confess that although I’m incredibly thankful to have been married for 15 years... Read more

Romney Lip Reading… holy cow!

Last updated on: January 22, 2012 at 7:58 am By Tim Suttle

Newt Gingrich won the South Carolina primary this weekend, which makes the primary season a little more interesting. This is now a two-man race, and one which defies all of the norms of party politics going back to 1972, when the current form of choosing a candidate was instituted. Here’s an interesting article on what’s happening. I would have never thought it possible that Gingrich could make a serious run at the White House. Although I’m not sure who will... Read more

What is up with Mark Driscoll?

Last updated on: January 21, 2012 at 7:09 am By Tim Suttle

Mark Driscoll is a Christian superstar. He’s the head pastor of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, and started a church planting organization called the Acts 29 Network. He is in the news a lot because he writes books and says inflammatory things: He suggested that Ted Haggard’s wife was to blame for is affair with a male prostitute because she “let herself go.” He said it is a wife’s biblical duty to perform oral sex. He once posted a question... Read more

Fleecing the Flock: A Snapshot of America’s Richest Pastors

Last updated on: November 20, 2019 at 12:47 pm By Tim Suttle

The Huffington Post’s Jaweed Kaleem ran an interesting article on the salaries of MegaChurch pastors. This makes me want to throw-up. I gathered the evidence here so you can see it at a glance. It’s so sad to see how these towers of the church have suffered for the gospel. Rick Warren stands alone – he’s the only one who can still look his church in the eye. These Christian leaders have lost the thread. Kenneth Copeland – Copeland Ministries... Read more

You Cannot Do Anything!

Last updated on: January 19, 2012 at 8:14 am By Tim Suttle

You have to watch this SNL video! The “Youtube” generation got a self-confidence check Saturday night, in what I think was the best sketch-based social commentary on SNL since the last presidential election. This video is hilarious. There is just enough truth to the premise to make us all a little uncomfortable. It’s kind of scary. Will my kids be brimming with unearned self-confidence? The best exchange was: Taylor: “I’m what you would call Twitter Famous.”Host: “Meaning?”Taylor: “Not famous.”Host: “I... Read more

The End of Planned Obsolescence?

Last updated on: January 17, 2012 at 7:01 am By Tim Suttle

You know that thing they have each year all of the companies who make consumer electronics get together for a convention to show off their stuff (and apple never comes because they have their own way of doing everything)? Well, it’s called the Consumer Electronics Show & it just happened. Here’s a quick list of 10 winners & losers from techradar.com – the interesting news is that they think Lenovo has situated itself as a future electronic superpower. I stumbled... Read more

I confess that when I was young many people who surrounded me in my little world held MLK in deep suspicion. He was not considered a great man by them. I often heard statements like, “Once the FBI files on MLK are opened, the world will really see what he was like. And they won’t be celebrating him so much.” I confess that I believe this was rooted in blatant racism. I confess that I have never suffered for anything... Read more

Pastor Ed Young’s Sexperiment

Last updated on: January 12, 2012 at 6:34 pm By Tim Suttle

To promote his new book called Sexperiment, MegaChurch pastor Ed Young is having his very own “bed-in,” you can watch the promotional video below. By “bed-in” he means that he and his wife are putting a bed on the roof of their ginormous church, (ala-Yoko and John), and then they are going to stay in bed for 24 hours and broadcast it live on the internet. No word yet on if they are actually going to fool around. Pastor Young... Read more
