Let’s take a break from our broccoli scriptures for a moment and go back to regular apologetics.

Juergen Moltmann said that the way to change the world is by playing games. So I want to talk a bit about the Board Game Renaissance. That is going on in the world right now, and it’s theological importance. A lot of it comes from a new way of thinking about board games, which began…

As a pastor’s kid, I have extra pet peeves that some of you don’t worry about. This is one of them. We need way way more deep content for spiritually mature people, And I’m working on it.

Akkkk! It’s another blog about blogging! Seriously though, I JUST got back into updating things, and I wrote several articles and timed them to be released a week apart, I was AHEAD and now this is my first post in September. It’s incredible. What it looks like to build and keep a daily discipline and…
