Christians need to be aware that the outside world does not understand the most basic of things when it comes to the spiritual world. Those eyes have been blinded and therefore they are incapable of comprehending things believers take for granted. In order to understand exactly where these misunderstandings or misconceptions lie, we must listen [...]

“Do you have any tips for finding a good church?”
Short Answer:
Well, there is only ONE church, as stated in the Apostles’ Creed, “sanctam Ecclesiam catholicam” or “the holy catholic church,” that is, eternal and universal. The gathering of the people of God throughout time and space. When you profess faith in Christ, as the Apostles’ [...]

Question
Short answer: No.
Longer answer:  No. At least, probably not. We have an idea that He may have been born sometime in the late Spring or early Summer given the likely time of the census. But we really have no idea. A lawyer in the States using astronomy software probably (at least in my book) found [...]

A Call of Christian Conscience
Christians, when they have lived up to the highest ideals of their faith, have defended the weak and vulnerable and worked tirelessly to protect and strengthen vital institutions of civil society, beginning with the family.

I’ve just finished reading the complete Chronicles of Narnia (thanks to Robin!) and finally made it to one of the parts I’ve been looking forward to since I began the seventh book, The Last Battle. This is the section I’m sure you’ve heard about even if you haven’t read the series. It is the bit [...]

There’s a problem with evolution: it seems impossible, improbable, inexplicable. When one looks at the incredible complexity and diversity of life on this planet (and we can’t look elsewhere – as far as we know we are alone amongst the stars) it seems to be a stretch too far to believe that we all [...]

“Autobots, TRANSFORM!”Okay, enough of that. Wait, just one more; “ROLL OUT!”Man, sometime I wonder what it would be like to do an animated movie about Jesus with Peter Cullen doing the voice of Christ… how unbelievably cool would that be? (Well, maybe its just me … but I bet a month’s pay Dave agrees)
Anywho, as [...]

The other day someone noted to a friend, that if we (Christians) experience hardship, it must be by the will of God. Our friend was very disturbed and retorted that it is never God’s will that evil be upon us; evil results from the Fall, not God.
I know what she means, and [...]

We’ve been getting a few enquiries lately about grace, and what it really means in laymen’s terms, so I thought I’d have a go at explaining it simply, and it seems to me that the best way to understand what grace is is to understand what it does, so let me detail that quickly.
As [...]

We get a lot of questions and, personally, I think that rocks. One I just got was “Why was Jesus killed?” and in keeping with “layman’s terms” I’m gonna keep it simple and make it short. (I hear sniggering from the peanut gallery…)
Let’s break down the ‘why’ into three different categories: 1) Jewish Law, 2) [...]

Good morning! Christ is Risen!
Every year, Westerners celebrate the Resurrection of Christ with colored eggs, chocolate rabbits (which I have absolutely no aversion to whatsoever) and plastic grass stuffed into pastel-painted wicker baskets. We take photos of our children in ducky outfits and white shoes and if you are really religious, you get up early [...]

I was chatting with Drew over lunch, which we should all do more of (with each other, and with Drew – he’s full of gems that come out over a spread at TGIFs) and the convo went something like, “I prayed for God to open my eyes and show me my sins,” says I. “Yeah, [...]

Reference to Miyuki’s Question on Facebook:
Ah, this can get really deep here. You are asking questions that can be answered easily and naively, or that can be expounded into truths so profound as to change your very being.
1) When you hear “church” what do you think of?
“Church” in the sense that you have put [...]
