Announcing the Month of Free Stuff

I am officially making this the “Month of Free Stuff” on my blog. I’m going to do my best to link a number of free resources each day this month in order to try to boost my BiblioBlog ranking. I started at #35, but I know that I can do much, much better than that. …

This Month's ChristianAudio.com Free Book

This month ChristianAudio.com has Just Courage by Gary A. Haugen for free. Here is the description of the book from their website: International Justice Mission president Haugen has found that “the pathway out of a nearly comatose state of boredom, ineffectiveness and triviality lies in the struggle for justice.” This book describes how to break…

"An Ancient of Days" or "The Ancient of Days": Does it Really Matter?

The Old Testament lectionary reading today is from Daniel 7. This is probably one of the most interesting chapters in the entire Bible, but the lectionary reading is only a part of it. Do yourself a favor and go back and read the part about the beasts. My blog is not really a place to…

10 Random Beliefs Meme

This meme thing is fun. I hadn’t been tagged for one, but then it was two in about a 24 hour period. I think I probably went overboard on the first one, but that tends to happen when I rant (though I think I may have had a point somewhere in there). Thanks to James…

Bible Movies Meme

I’ve been reading a few of the responses to this Bible movie meme, and my Twitter friend Carmen said that she would be interested to see my response.

Suzanne McCarthy on the Gender Neutral Bible Controversy

Thanks to Suzanne McCarthy over at Suzanne’s Bookshelf for this POST on the gender neutral Bible controversy. She links to a helpful article by Ann Nyland addressing the generic use of the Greek word aner. Now, I am not one who would advocate gender inclusive language simply for the sake of being gender inclusive. In…
