A question about Bible “versions”

Tuesday, November 25th, 2003

The following is my reply to an email sent by a visitor to my website, asking for an explanation of the different Bible “versions.” Please remember that this is only an overview of the topic and is written for one evangelical Christian, by another. Dear [name withheld], Thank you for your question. I will try [...]

Grad School bound

Monday, October 27th, 2003

I am definitely heading to grad school – I’ve decided that’s really where I’m called and where I want to be. So, applications have been a major reason for the lack of updates, recently. So much to do… I’m excited, though, and even have some rough ideas for thesis topics (yes, that’s 2-3 years away, [...]

Our great arrogance, Gene Robinson, DTS plans, and more

Tuesday, August 5th, 2003

I believe a large – maybe even the greatest – part of our problems, as humans, stems from pride.

I’m really excited, though, about how well [...]

Easter

Saturday, April 19th, 2003

Tomorrow is, of course, Easter Sunday. To me, it’s the single most amazing day of the year: it validates not only the Christian faith, but all of life. What a beautiful story. Sadly, so few people understand it. Good Friday is a wonderful thing: on that day, as Christ died on the cross, because (and [...]

A job for my dad, thoughts for me…

Thursday, April 5th, 2001

Well, my dad got a job today (he’s been out of work since the fall). He’s selling cars at the Ford dealership in my hometown (Fayetteville, GA), with potential to move into management. It’s not really his field…
