We have eliminated the need for miracles
…We have insulated ourselves from miracles. We no longer live with such reckless faith that we need them. There is rarely room for the transcendent in our lives. If we get sick, we go to a doctor. If we need food, we go to a store and buy it. We have eliminated the need for miracles. If we had enough fa…
The Inner Reformation
I’ve been reading “Renovation of the heart” by Dallas Willard, which I highly recommend to anyone who would like to learn more about life with Christ. As I read through it, there are so many things that resonate in my heart about Jesus that I wish the world would hear. And I think tha…
If you believe in Freedom
For anyone who stumbled here and doesn’t know me, let me say right now that I am a Christian. I believe that Jesus’ teachings and the life he modeled for us are the key to the salvation of the world in every sense. I’m more of a conservative than a moderate, I didn’t vote for Obam…

Purpose; and a plan
Altruism is defined as devotion to others or to humanity, the opposite of selfishness. In a nutshell – it is doing for others while expecting nothing in return. For quite some time I have questioned whether true altruism really existed. In my life, when I am serving others, am I doing it out of a t…
Lives acceptable to lose…
I have never been a pacifist, nor am I now. I believe in defense of self, family, home, and freedom (not necessarily in that order). I have never been a violent person, nor prone to act out in aggression, but I do get passionately angry about injustices done to innocents.
I am against abortion. I stand ag…
