Not Oregano. Wrong Kind of Season.
It’s all well and good to be in a new “season”, I just pray that in every season we remember ”to know nothing…except Jesus Christ and him crucified” - 1 Corinthians 2:2

What is the True Mark of Quality Education?
“The true mark of a quality education is not simply a mind full of facts.  It is accumulated knowledge with a hunger for more, the faculty to reason soundly, the ability to express what has been learned, and most importantly the acquisition of the proper tools with which to continue the learning process throughout an entire lifetime. It is not enough to merely learn subjects, a student must...

John Piper: This is What Paul Meant...
  When the apostle Paul thinks about “wealth” or “riches” what springs to his mind? What should spring to ours? Where should our efforts at enrichment be invested? Here are all the uses of Paul’s favorite word for “riches” (ploutos). Taste and see what he lives for. The riches of God’s kindness and forbearance and patience. (Romans 2:4) The riches of God’s glory for vessels of mercy....

Eckhard Schnabel on Eschatological Error
  What are some of the most common errors in evangelicals’ thinking about eschatology? The most problematic error is, I think, the view that the end times are the last seven years of the world, because it has forced interpreters to speculate how close the beginning of this period is. Connected with this is the view that the Antichrist is only a reality that is more or less tied to the...

On Memorization
Recently, a few of my brothers and I set out to memorize the book of Ephesians. Man, that was four months ago… Day 1: Motivated Day 2: Still Motivated Day 3: Ready to quit Day 30: This is going to take forever Day 60: Second wind – I can do this Day 90: Maybe I can just quit at chapter five. That’s good, right? Five chapters… Last week: Wow, I can’t believe I finished. This is what was going...

James Smith on Concerts and Worship
If we, the congregation, can’t hear ourselves, it’s not worship. Christian worship is not a concert. In a concert (a particular “form of performance”), we often expect to be overwhelmed by sound, particularly in certain styles of music. In a concert, we come to expect that weird sort of sensory deprivation that happens from sensory overload, when the pounding of the bass...

Hue, IQ, and a Whole Lotta Dominance: Abraham...
You say ‘A’ is white and ‘B’ is black. It is color, then: the lighter having the right to enslave the darker? Take care. By this rule, you are a slave to the first man you meet with a fairer skin than your own. You do not mean color exactly—You mean the whites are intellectually the superiors of the blacks, and therefore have the right to enslave them? Take care again: By this rule you are to...
