Extreme Faith

Last updated on: January 10, 2012 at 2:06 pm   By Zack Hunt

    Is your faith this extreme? Mine’s not. I’m a terrible skier. I can stay up. It’s the stopping that I struggle with. There’s probably a spiritual lesson there, but I’m too concerned with not dying on the slopes to figure what it might be. Read more

Everybody’s A Bigot

Last updated on: January 9, 2012 at 2:35 pm   By Zack Hunt

    I’m ashamed. I did something Saturday night that I’m not proud of. Something I never thought even in my wildest dreams I would ever be capable of. I changed the channel away from a NFL playoff game and tuned into the Republican debate. Now, in my defense the Lions-Saints game was starting to get a little out of hand. Furthermore, I would like to pass some of the blame onto my beloved Tennessee Titans. Had they not failed to... Read more

The Martyr Complex

Last updated on: January 6, 2012 at 1:31 pm   By Zack Hunt

    There is an epidemic in the church. It’s infecting people on every level from the most obscure lay person to the biggest celebrity preacher. And it’s spreading. It’s called “the martyr complex” and it’s more powerful and more contagious than anything the CDC has a vaccine for. You can see it everywhere. Look no further than this CNN story about the reaction to Mark Driscoll’s new book on marriage. At the end of the post there is this... Read more

‘Ain’t No Safe Way’ – A Song About Abstinence

Last updated on: January 6, 2012 at 9:49 am   By Zack Hunt

      Sexuality is and always will be a “touchy” subject. Literally and metaphorically. Ask 10 people what they think healthy sexuality is and you’ll probably get 10 different answers. As youth pastors we obviously encourage our teenage students not to sleep around. However, this probably wouldn’t be our go to resource to get that message across. Read more

UFOs & Crop Circles Are The Demonic Result Of Abortion

Last updated on: January 5, 2012 at 1:46 pm   By Zack Hunt

    Go ahead. Think of something totally crazy about Jesus, the Bible, etc.; something nobody would ever believe. No matter how crazy or off the wall your imagination might get it will never surpass what is going on in William Tapley’s noggin. First it was phallic imagery at the Denver International Airport. Now, it seems that Satan in the disguise of aliens and UFOs (as the result of the rise in abortions in the 1970s) is forming crop circles... Read more

The “New & Improved” Junior Christian Science Bible Lesson Show

Last updated on: January 5, 2012 at 10:03 am   By Zack Hunt

    If you’ve spent much time on blogs like ours or Jesus Needs New PR or Christian Nightmares, then you’ve probably seen a video or two from the old cable access show Junior Christian Science Bible Lesson. If not, here’s an example. It was sort of the quintessential corny/cheesy 90’s Christian cable access show. Well, it seems that someone wasn’t content to let sleeping dogs lie and felt they needed to bring back this blast from the past and... Read more

Black Church Becomes New Owner Of KKK Shop

Last updated on: January 4, 2012 at 8:52 am   By Zack Hunt

    This story is just awesome. From BET – The Black church has taken over the KKK, or at least a store selling its memorabilia in South Carolina. A circuit court judge recently ruled that New Beginnings Baptist Church is the rightful property owner of the Redneck Shop, which operates as a so-called Klan museum, selling robes and t-shirts with racial slurs. According to court documents, in 1997, ownership of the Laurens, South Carolina building in which the store exists was... Read more

The Unbelievable Believers: Blessed Sounds

Last updated on: January 3, 2012 at 2:49 pm   By Zack Hunt

    So, we just stumbled across these songs on the old YouTube and all we can say is wow. According to this site these are demos from Christian artists that never made it to the big time. Just take a listen and you’ll understand why. We couldn’t decide on our favorite because, well, they’re all just so amazing. So, we picked out a few and thought we’d let you, our loyal readers, decide on a winner. Give them each... Read more
