Frankly, I don't care about Beyonce and "Bow Down" except...

Read whatever you want...Rush, HuffPo, E network, take your pick. Apparently, singer Beyonce has the world by the, er, throat again. This is a reflection of rock stardom gone to its illogical, self-absorbed and "idolatrous" extreme. Apparently, we have another... Continue reading

As usual, controversy "sells"...that's why we need measured responses
Another Christian "celebrity" (in this case Rob Bell) is stirring up the cultural pot. I'm sure most of his comments would make more sense IF we were present at the conversation he was having during the event which is referenced.... Continue reading

A GREAT Post! No, not a shameless self promotion but rather a friend's post that is too good to pass up!

I have an "old" friend...no, not in chronological years but in a "different" frame of reference. My friend Beau is someone I've known since our paths crossed at Azusa Pacific University. He also joined our staff for the Youth Leadership... Continue reading
