Posted on March 10, 2012 by ehurst

I’m reading through a book I’ve been asked to use in a series of sessions, in which I will be leading a men’s discussion group. We were warned it was not the best, but a decent place to start. The … Continue reading →

Necons, Dispensationalists and Islamic Terrorists

Posted on February 18, 2012 by ehurst

I rather like how George Washington’s Blog covers the issue. It’s a long read, and only worth it if you need a good background overview. It’s like this. GW’s Blog skips over the Zionist roots of the Dispensational Heresy. While … Continue reading →

Steering Limits

Posted on February 13, 2012 by ehurst

It's Not Just a Difference of Opinion

Posted on February 7, 2012 by ehurst

Dog Piling on Iran

Posted on February 2, 2012 by ehurst

Friend or Foe on the Net

Posted on February 1, 2012 by ehurst

Light Switch, Part 1 (Updated)

Posted on January 24, 2012 by ehurst

(NOTE: I had mistakenly posted the rough draft of this part previously. Fixed now.) The breeze was light, sun warm. Very nice day for this far north. Thomas leaned back against the post at the corner of the cabin, closed … Continue reading →

Do What I Say, Not What I Do

Posted on January 23, 2012 by ehurst
