  • Don’t Settle For Lesser Things

    Children are not good at judging and comparing the value of things. They will often choose whatever pleasant thing comes first, even if it is of far less value. This idea comes from C.S. Lewis in The Weight of Glory, and he applies it to the difficulty we have in comparing the value of physical…

  • Making Room For Jesus

    My parents were married on June 9, 1967. The following morning, they awoke to a call from hotel management offering not to charge them for the night’s stay if they would vacate immediately. The hotel had overbooked and they needed that room for some VIP.

  • John Boy, C.S. Lewis, and Romantic Love

    How do love stories make you feel? I’ve noticed that when I watch or read a portrayal of two people falling in love, I experience a curious blend of emotions— vicarious pleasure mixed with the bittersweet pain that it is happening to them and not to me.

  • What Shall We Do?

    Some Pharisees spent just as much time and energy trying to get rid of the apostles as they had spent getting rid of Jesus. Eventually most of the apostles died as martyrs, but the church still spread and continues to this day. These unbelievers were fighting against God, as Gamaliel put it in Acts 5:39,…

  • Awkward Moments At Church

    We’ve all been in that awkward situation at a party where we don’t see anyone we know, aren’t sure where to sit or stand, and just feel really out of place. But church is a place where everyone is welcome and it’s all about God and so there’s never any awkwardness, right? WRONG.

  • Simple Acts Of Faith

    We might be called upon to take huge life-altering risks or to endure physical torture and death for our faith. But what if we’re not? How can we show our faith if we’re just living a normal life without such extreme circumstances?

  • Analog Time Keeping

    Are you old enough to remember car dashboards before the digital age? Remember how the odometers worked? The numbers would turn very gradually, one little 0-9 dial for each place— the ones, the tens, the hundreds, and so on— so that when it turned to 100,000 miles, for example, you had the excitement of watching…

  • Internet Hiatus

    I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that, as useful as the internet can be, too much screen time is a problem. We all know it. But it’s a hard habit to break.
