Finding a really good weblog is like finding the peanuts in a box of Cracker Jacks. They are in there, but you have to hunt for them. And when you find one, you savor it.
When I say, “I am a Christian,” I’m not shouting “I am saved.” I am whispering, “I was lost.” That’s why I chose His way. When I say, “I am a Christian,” I don’t speak of this with pride. I’m confessing that I stumble Needing God to be my guide. When I say, “I am […]

Many Christians believe that faith alone is enough. I would like to rephrase that and say “just enough”, as in the bare minimum. Maybe they are right, but in light of my previous entry, I think that it is only half of the story. Jesus gave us two commandments, love God first and foremost, and […]
