Our Rising Sound —
Authority: 113
[tweetmeme]Over the past couple years my heart has really been moved towards re-arranging hymns, due in large part to the influence of Mars Hill’s worship leaders but also due to a conviction on singing theologically rich lyrics. One of my favorite hymns is “ The Solid Rock ” by Edward Mote. I’ve done a couple ...5 days ago -
The Devil Trying to Disrupt and Discourage the Heroic Vitalist
Prometheus Unbound —
Authority: 141
This Albrecht Durer drawing from 1513 made me think of John Calvin (who was born in 1509).

After Disneyland, the happiest place on Earth? Here’s the historian Will Durant, from his book The Reformation (1957, pp. 473-474), on what John Calvin’s Geneva was like in the 16th century: Calvin himself, austere and severe, dreamed of a community so well regulated that its virtue would prove his theology, ...1 week ago -
Is Porn Your “Idol”?
Breaking Free —
Authority: 128
For some, boiling all human problems down to “idolatry” might seem like a bit of a stretch, but I am convinced every imbalance, every injustice, and every moral problem is under-girded by a “worship disorder.” We choose to worship false gods. One of my personal idols was pornography. My attraction to it was ...1 week ago -

Last Sunday, I got convicted of a bad reading habit. I admit, when I found out that in our study of Luke, we’d be spending an entire sermon on Mary’s Magnificat, I was a little unenthused. I’ve read that thing a million times, and it’s a nice little song and all, but seriously, a whole sermon on it? ...2 weeks ago -
