It all started when out of the nothingness of Mary’s womb, the Word who makes all things, made for Himself a body, human through and through. From the virgin soil of Eden the first man came and from the virgin womb the last man came—came to re-genesis you.

Much like the 2014 Superbowl, the debate itself was lackluster and utterly predictable. However, one aspect of the debate struck me as worthy of commentary; the way Mr. Ham presented himself as a Christian intellectual.

We love because we find in the beloved something that is lovable. We see, we know, and then we love. Or, at least, we promise to love.

Ever experience a congregation with the word "Grace" in its name that was nonetheless ironically ungracious and legalistic? I have.

Hell is just as happy with those who believe in a fake Jesus, as with those who believe in no Jesus at all. For there is no difference.

If I had hated him even while a child, in his late teens I grew to loathe him as the very antithesis of the man I wanted to be.

“Let’s face it,” my mom once told me, while delivering a lecture on making the right moral decisions in high school, “sinning is fun.”
