Buyer Beware
Hobby Lobby, an arts and crafts chain, apparently runs ads during the Easter season that have a very specific Christian message.

I have heard of “Christian” companies before subtly advertising the message of the Gospel, but [...]

Project: Incarnation
In a recent sermon, P.Rich talked about Jesus’ state as he entered this earth, namely his homelessness. This got me thinking about what his life would be like if he were born in our time, in our community, in our city. What would his ministry look like in modern American, westernized society? Who would be [...]

Jesus is a Friend of Mine
A painful era for “Christian Rock & Roll” indeed. The exact opposite of Stryper. httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-NOZU2iPA8&feature=related

Prayer at the Pump
Praying for God to bless your church, your family, your life, your dog even, I’ve heard but this is something new. Apparently a group of local activists are praying to God for relief… from high gas prices! Now I’m not one to say that God doesn’t answer these sorts of prayers, but from the sound [...]

If not, you may not have seen one of their latest fashion “statements” that has some people really up in arms about what they’re trying to say, which is apparently nothing… The retailer has been getting some slack (not dockers.. sorry) for releasing a pair of sweat pants stretchy [...]

Reader Poll: What sport would Jesus play?
I have always been a fan of inspirational posters and even more so of the demotivational posters that are so prevalent on the net these days. But when I saw these little bad boys, I fell in love. This takes “Jesus is my homeboy” to a whole new level. Although one has to wonder why [...]
