Morals and Harassment
God said, “My ways are not your ways” (Isaiah 58). The context is a call to repent, but in the midst of this is a statement that has long carried meanings beyond the context. Rightly so, because Hebrew prophetic writing … Continue reading

A Path through Time
God’s path for me has carried me places I could never have imagined. I seldom found God in evangelical church activities, particularly during worship services. The first and greatest error Western Christians make is confusing emotionally moving music and preaching … Continue reading

Fool’s Goal
Nobody says having a goal in mind is somehow evil. What’s evil is the underlying mental frame of reference that makes accomplishment the measure of your worth. When you boil down Scripture to the essence, you discover God says holiness … Continue reading

The issue of forgiveness has long been pickled in lies. Western Christians struggle against the unconscious Anglo-Saxon world view, the dreary world of Beowulf. All the attempts to brighten things with affirmations and positive celebrations still reflects the merriment of … Continue reading

Job 26
