Artist Imagines Kim Kardashian As Jesus (And The Virgin Mary) In New Art Show

Last updated on: June 19, 2014 at 9:59 am By Zack Hunt

The depths of my disinterest in Kim Kardashian and her megalomaniac husband are infinite. Except for when Nasim Pedrad and Jay Pharaoh make fun of them on SNL cause it’s hilarious. Of course, I realize that I am something of an exception in this matter as, inexplicably, there are millions of people who need to know everything Kim and Kanye are doing every minute of every day. So, maybe these images of Kim Kardashian as a religious icon make sense…even if... Read more

Jesus’ Autograph Hits The Auction Block

Yes, this is a real auction. And it’s obviously ridiculous. But also kind of amazing. And oh my gosh I want it so bad. Read more

A Lesson On Faith From Neil deGrasse Tyson

Last updated on: June 16, 2014 at 9:55 am By Zack Hunt

(H/T) While my father-in-law was in town last week we caught up – or I caught up, he had already seen it – on the season finale of Cosmos. It fitting fashion, Neil deGrasse Tyson ended the first season of his revamped version of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos with Sagan’s own now famous pale blue dot monologue. But before cutting to the credits, Tyson added a few thoughts of his own that I thought the church would do well to listen... Read more

Giant Balloon Jesus Invades Australia

Last updated on: June 12, 2014 at 8:50 am By Zack Hunt

Ahead of this year’s World Cup, an online gambling website had a hot air balloon version of Brazil’s famous Christ the Redeemer statue created complete with an Australian soccer jersey. The result? An amazing picture that desperately needs to be captioned. (H/T) Read more

The Narrow Gate

Last updated on: June 10, 2014 at 9:48 am By Zack Hunt

(H/T) Remember the verse about the narrow gate? It comes at the very end of the Sermon on the Mount when Jesus says, Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the road is easy that leads to destruction, and there are many who take it. For the gate is narrow and the road is hard that leads to life, and there are few who find it. Growing up, whenever I heard a pastor preach this passage or... Read more

Star Wars Jesus

Last updated on: June 9, 2014 at 11:04 am By Zack Hunt

So this is a thing that exists. It’s the story of Jesus’ life put to music and the intro graphics of Star Wars. It’s kinda weird. And kinda hilarious. And maybe kinda genius if you’re a big Star Wars fan. And definitely what the heck did I just watch if you’re not a fan. So enjoy or don’t, but be warned. The force is strong with this one. Once you start the video, you won’t be able to turn away. Read more

Cross Fit By Jesus

Last updated on: June 6, 2014 at 11:27 am By Zack Hunt

I confess that I find most of the people obsessed with CrossFit to be pretty annoying. It’s like a religion and they’re the evangelists. But they’re worse than the Jehovah’s Witnesses who show up announced at your door because CrossFit fanatics constantly flood social media and it’s all up in your face all the time and it’s just…ugh. So, to the extent that this video is mocking the religious enthusiasm of CrossFit zealots, I appreciate the joke. But Cross Fit... Read more

Church Billboard Quotes Hitler

Last updated on: June 4, 2014 at 10:35 am By Zack Hunt

Every few months it seems a church somewhere in America puts up a controversial billboard. That’s nothing new. What is new about this particular church billboard is the person they inexplicably chose to quote – Adolph Hitler. Seriously. And, no, despite the terrible image quality, that picture isn’t photoshopped. It was taken by the local paper in the town were the billboard went up. Apparently the billboard was put up by a youth group in Alabama to…honestly I have no... Read more

The Pharisees Of Truth

Last updated on: June 2, 2014 at 12:06 pm By Zack Hunt

Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like we in the church have been hyper-focused on truth in recent years. We’ve created coalitions to defend it, erected alliances to define it, and publish a never ending stream of blogs that claim to proclaim nothing but absolute truth. The truth is, of course, a very important thing. And worthy of such endeavors. But I worry we’ve reduced Christianity to little more than a list a propositional truths, doctrines and statements of...

My friends, I know you have spent ceaseless hours in prayer waiting and hoping for this day to arrive. Well, it finally has. Your prayers have been answered.
