TOPIC INDEXJesus Christ (57)
  1. “It’s funny because it’s true.” —Homer Simpson. The Bible is full of ridiculous stories. Laughable stories. There, I said it. A Red Sea parting, a giant fish swallowing a man, a talking donkey, and the list goes on and on. It’s all a bit ridiculous.
  2. Paul’s letter to the Romans is arguably the most masterful piece of writing in the New Testament.
  3. The guys Jesus chose to be His disciples have always fascinated me. The first two who were called into His posse were Andrew and John, friends who were just following a freak in the wilderness who was dressed in camel hair while eating locusts and honey.
  4. Jesus simply can’t help himself. Over and over in the Gospels we find Jesus leaving a wake of physical restoration.
  5. I once saw a man holding a sign that read: Divorce is an abomination. Repent! That’s it. Nothing else.
  6. The lighting is fluorescent, the music is loud and heavy. There is a table in the corner with bottles of iodine, rubbing alcohol, and a biohazard container full of used needles.
  7. Today is Friday the 13th of February and that means tomorrow we celebrate Valentine’s Day. Two days back-to-back that most people recognize as being very different.
