The celebration of All Saints Day confesses that the Christian Church refuses to believe that living is the same thing as dying.

Once again, I have to ask: have we truly considered the possibility that email is the devil's tool?

Theologian brothers, happy Trinity Sunday. Let's all try to remember this is not a Sunday of lording our degrees and books over others - but to gather together in the humility of a mystery none of us can truly comprehend.

God didnt make me a rich man because He knew I would spend it all tattooing song lyrics on my body.

This post has been canceled due to the Holy Spirit's wisdom. The flesh wants to say somethin' but I'm gonna yield this time.

Here's a "duh" that I suggest you think more deeply about: Christianity is not Islam.

I feel like someone had promised me that vocational ministry was going to be a lot more punk rock than it turned out to be so far.

It is indeed a privilege to be in a church body where at 47, you're still a part of the "younger generation"

My wife has a very different algorithm from mine. The difference in what we saw on each of our phones about the latest Milwaukee shooting is troubling. Regardless of political side, "news" should not differ this much.

If there is anything hopeful that I can say about our current age, it is that I'm looking forward to the revival of punk music that must surely be coming.

Lutherans are so committed to faith instead of works that they will have place lots of faith in the idea that right format of worship (either side) will bring people to Jesus rather than working to bring those people to Jesus in conversation and love. #snark

Me before Christmas Eve: These Santa and Elf-shelf things are just manipulative ploys to extort phony moral behavior out of children. Also me, on Christmas Eve: Why, oh why, did we teach the kids the truth about Santa and the Elf?!?!?

God is a funny guy. He gives me a sermon I really want to preach on a Sunday when hardly anyone is going to be in church. But Christmas Eve? That thing is going to stink, y'all.

Meh. Turns out this past Sunday wasn't that great anyway. Oh well.

Being a pastor is confusing. In the same day, I am challenged by linguistic artistry, organizational execution, counseling acumen, academic rigor, and a bunch of other skill sets. And yet, it's the best confusion I know.

"Under contract" means a totally different thing when you're talking about a person instead of a house.
