Does one’s perception of truth affect the way they hear statements like; the Bible is true, or Jesus said, “I am the way the truth and the life”?
If someone hears something different than what we said, becuase of the way they interpret certain buzzwords, should a pastor/communicator change how he preached/communicates?
- Did Jesus?
- Did Paul?

In the Fridge
Redhook India Pale Ale (IPA)
This is my third favorite IPA (#1 Mongoose IPA, Hales Ales – Seattle, WA; #2 Bridgeport IPA, Bridgeport Brewery – Somewhere in Oregon), although it is the best IPA I can find in Vegas (#2 Thunderhead IPA, Pyramid Brewing – Seattle, WA). Nice and hoppy with a phenomenal aftertaste. [...]

Been way too busy to write anything substantial, so like my buddy Jake, I am throwing out a video instead. This is long, but it is amazing. Kind of goes along with the Paris Hilton post I wrote last week. Please respond with comments as to what you think.

For those of you who have not been following the debate between Hitchens and Wilson you must repent and go and read them right now. Hitchens is the latest to capitalize on the evangelistic atheist fad and write a nasty book with old arguments to market to the American people. Hitchens is no intellectual slouch [...]

and a spade a spade, and says to men, “You are ruining yourselves; while
you reject Christ you are living on the borders of hell, and ere long you will
be lost to all eternity. There shall be no mincing the matter, you must

I was driving home from seminary today and I was listening to FM radio. I do not normally do it, since most of FM radio is wacky DJ’s and lots of car stereo commericals. I had heard of a new hip-hop & RB station in the area that played decent music so I [...]

No one has ever mastered the art of “not helping” your argument or position better than Ann Coulter. As a pastor I cringe every time I hear she is defending Christianity, or attacking liberals in the name of Christianity. Al Mohler did a good job of putting her in her place a few months ago, [...]

“Why did Jerry Falwell die?… Because he was fat.”
These were the words of a homosexual radio personality this morning, of whom a co-worker said “I have never heard an evil word come out of your mouth until today.”

Wow Jesus really does love me!
Not only did I finish my second year of seminary this last week, and complete my second year of Greek but now UNLV has picked up one of the biggest recruits the program has had since Shawn Marion. Of course Beas Hamga could turn out to be a [...]
