Lion of Judah: New verses with chords

Will fix link when approved. Link now works.]. Here’s a plain-text version for now. Here’s the song, including new…

Posted on August 21, 2016August 21, 2016 by Matt

I’d like to introduce Daniel Pech, an aspiring creatonist, biblical writer, and philosopher, amidst many other things. Daniel forwarded me his views on Genesis 1 and 2 in response to a blog of my own on the complementary nature, as opposed to a contradictory and self-contained nature, of the first two chapters of Genesis.  I…

#Charity365

Posted on February 28, 2015May 1, 2016 by Matt

You can’t give more than 100% but many giving even 1% can accomplish much, much more. Five years ago I wrote about the struggle to begin giving charitably. My original concerns included questions such as “What charities would I give to?“, and “How do I donate in a personally satisfying and sustainable way?” It’s amazing…

C.S. Lewis is Cleverer Than You Think

Posted on November 28, 2014December 9, 2014 by Matt

My good friend, Jamie, liked a Relevant Magazine article today titled C.S. Lewis’ 3 Most Controversial Beliefs.

Posted on August 9, 2014August 23, 2014 by Matt

So, the latest intra-Christian controversy to blow up is popular Christian worship act Gungor’s denial of the ‘literal’ reading of scripture, particularly Genesis, the creation account, Adam and Eve, and the Flood. This of course triggering the day before our traditional day of worship when Christians come together to worship God their saviour in spirit…

Faith Shaking Scientific Discoveries (Or Not)

Posted on July 23, 2014July 22, 2014 by Matt

Take-away: You know all those big big scientific discoveries that seem to shake your faith just a little bit more each time, if you’re being honest? Actually, they usually end up on the cutting room floor. Just wait a bit, and watch some Christian sources like AIG, CMI, or ICR, and you’ll see these claims…

In this smile, this beautiful creation, joy bursts forth from the form of her comely curves. From lush strokes of warm pink she speaks harmony into the world. Her song fills this place.
