Why Not? Seriously: Why Not?
So at THIS church, you walk in, see the Box o'Cash, and pray that you win it, and then someone pulls a random seat number out, and maybe you take home the cash. After all, you know, it teaches people the proper way to handle money, and you've got to be creative in today's media-soaked environm...

Best Christian T-Shirt Like, Ever?
Krusty-Scholar-in-Residence Mike Taylor made this t-shirt. It sure beats "Do the Jew", and I find it more comfy than the familiar, "God said it. I believe it. That settles it." Mike is a paleontologist. It's perhaps safe to say he has little time to pursue graphic design. But he centered i...

Book Review: A Million Miles in a Thousand Years
I looked forward to this book with anticipation because I really enjoy reading Donald Miller's books. Needless to say, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years didn't disappoint. But what impressed me most about the book was the emphasis on finding a story worth living. I caused him to view his l...

New Creations
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. (2 Corinthians 5:17) Earlier this month we returned from our annual trip to Kids Across America camp in Missouri. This is one of the best things we do with our kids. Awhile back I ran ...

Some Thoughts on Writing
I gotten some questions about writing over the last few months, so I thought I'd answer a few of them here. Hopefully you'll find it helpful. #1 - When do you find time to write? Writing is an extracurricular activity from my position as Senior Pastor at Calvary Fellowship. So a book like Zero...

No Offense, But You -- and Your Family? Losers.
We won lab coats. We went to the open house for the Scripps Institute, now open next to Kamp Krusty. And we answered some science-y questions, and we won our own lab coats. Have you won lab coats? Answer: No. Have your children? No. ("Oh, but Brant, I don't have any kids, so -- " Whatev...

Shocking News: Idealistic Middle-Aged Guy Likes New U2 Album
Jupiter, FL -- A 39 year-old, white, American male really likes the new U2 album, "No Line on the Horizon". Apparently, according to Brant Hansen, the album features some "soaring, chime-y guitars" and anthemic choruses. He likes that. Again. "Yep, it's pretty awesome...again," he says. ...
This is the kind of sermon they give when I bring my non-believer mom to church for her once a decade visit.

In Case You Missed It: Some Sexy Churches are Sexually Talking About Sexual Sex
Hmmm. Okay. This is a spreading deal. So, let me follow this... Premise 1) Churches should teach about sex Premise 2) Sex sometimes involves sex toys Premise 3) Church teaching = a guy standing in front of relative strangers in a large lecture environment Ergo, churches should have a gu...
If heard it said that a church has a little business side to it. But what we're seein' these days are alot of businesses with a little church side to them.

Non-Compete Clauses for Churches? Makes Sense to Me
I heard about this recently: A church staffer had signed a non-compete agreement with a church, then wanted to leave for another one within the proscribed radius. (He wasn't supposed to leave for a position at another church within a 30 mile radius, I believe. Apparently, this is pretty sta...
There are two ways to view the world:
1. the way John MacArthur sees it
2. the way Satan sees it

I Found This Bible by a "John MacArthur" and It's Kinda Wimpy
I don't like it when people water down the Truth. I'm always on the lookout for that. I kind of see that as my role. It's kind of a cool role. Even kinda manly. Anyway, I was in "Books-a-Million" yesterday. They some Bibles there. And Bible covers. One was leather, with "NFL" on it, and...
I've seen Don Miller give this talk and I've also heard the talk given on MP3. It's informative and inspirational. Here's a link to the MP3: http://www.donaldmillerwords.com/ride/wp-content/themes/donmiller/treats/letstoryguide.mp3

Donald Miller on the Power of Story
If you've ever heard Donald Miller speak, then you know it is incredibly memorable, but very difficult to take notes. But here's my best attempt at some of his quotes... There is a ghost of futility that follows me around. I can escape from it through art/music sometimes. My life has changed in...
