The Four Evangelists

This past week I had the opportunity to teach Methodist kids from all over the Kansas East Conference about Jesus.  That’s right.  I did something I enjoy.  For the past three summers I’ve been part of iNstitute, which is a camp for high school youth sponsored by Kansas East and held at Baker University in [...]

Job Training and Basic Life Updates

It isn’t exactly PC to talk about heresy.  That doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist, and that it isn’t pervasive.  Accusing others of holding (not to mention teaching) unorthodox beliefs is perceived as mean-spirited, brutish, even un-Christian, particularly in an American context which has difficulty speaking of truth and error.  We prefer to chalk differences [...]
