Too Easily Gobsmacked
“And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also” (Gen. 1:16). Too many of us take this as saying nothing more than that God put a big shiny thing up in the sky for the daytime, and a …
Resurgent Grace
A few months ago, Pastor Mark and I had a chance to visit about our upcoming conference, The Grace Agenda. You can also follow the Resurgence page to the conference page. Here is a short clip from our conversation.

Psalm Off Results
Apologies to all for the delay in announcing the results of our Psalm-Off contest. We had some technical challenges in getting the entries to our judges, plus some other issues, and so I wasn’t able to announce anything last Friday as we had said we would do. My bad. Let us break this out into …
