For me to say that I have a "treat" for you today would be a gross underselling of what I am about to put before you. Recently one of the most admirable woman I have ever had the privilege of being taught in the word by (she was my Sunday School teacher in my teen... Continue Reading →
Addendum: Where We Find Ourselves
I've remained mostly silent throughout most of the election process, which still appears to not be over. I'm not so arrogant as to believe that I could sway somebody'e deeply held opinion. Few are open to opposing opinions to begin with, so why bother? Studies show that very, very few have their opinions change at... Continue Reading →
Genesis Diaries: 1:1-3a
In my last entry I established that the entirety of the Bible is a revelation of who God, the eternal one, is to us and who we are to Him. All of His actions are an expression of Himself so that we may know Him. He began everything and did so out of His indescribable... Continue Reading →
In Which Edmund Seems to Make Sense
One of the things about lies, deception, and manipulation is that eventually, it all comes out. I remember the day that I committed myself to embrace the goal of telling the truth always even if it means I suffer negative consequences as a result. I was sitting in the back of my friend’s truck as... Continue Reading →

I am a guy who reads the Bible, pays attention, makes connections, believes the God behind this book is real, and does his best to understand it. ... Continue Reading →
In Which Peter Believes in Lucy
In many ways the sixth chapter of "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" is a breath of fresh air. Finally the Pevensie siblings have made it all into the wood and Lucy is finally vindicated from any presumption of insanity or falsehood. She really saw the most fantastical things and they really are all... Continue Reading →
New Feature: “The Genesis Diaries”
The other day I was sitting and chatting with my wife while she was doing a sudoku. I was going on and on about how much of a “fanboy” I am of the first four chapters of Genesis. “I could spend the rest of my life studying just these four verses,” I stated with a... Continue Reading →
In Which Lucy Finds Her Courage
It's easy to pity Lucy. She knows she isn't making up the kingdom in the wardrobe. She is beset on all sides with siblings who minimize, call her foolish, or even go so far as to outright lie when she finally proved her experience true. As a Christian, and especially when we are following our... Continue Reading →
In Which We Remember the Feel of Fur
When Lucy first enters the wardrobe there is a line that stood out to me so distinctly that it may as well have glowed. “Looking into the inside, she saw several coats hanging up-mostly long fur coats. There was nothing Lucy liked so much as the smell and feel of fur.” God reaches... Continue Reading →
