Jesus for President? Reading over the comments that this book has elicited on the Web, I am amazed at the number of Christians who, without reading the book, will so easily condemn it as a wholesale sell-out by Thomas Nelson to simply make a buck in an election year. What’s interesting is that when you think about it, they actually took quite a risk in publishing such a title. If the core...

The Issue (Abortion) In The Faith of Barack Obama, Mansfield does a great job pointing out that while Barack is unapologetically pro-choice (but “anti-abortion”), some modern Evangelicals don’t consider this the deciding issue in the same way it was with Bush v.

I Love Costco (But Costco Doesn't Love Me)
I have spent $2500 at Costco this year. Not a lot by many measures, but relative to our family’s budget this ranks up there with other expense categories (more than gas if you can believe it). It’s a warehouse for Pete’s sake! What is it about this place that drives us all so nuts?!

Bedtime
Son (Nathaniel): Dad, I can't hear God
Dad (Me): You have to learn to listen with your heart.
Son (Nathaniel): Dad...I don't have ears on my heart!
Dad (Me): Sure you do, you just have to learn to use them.
Son (Nathaniel): God - do I have ears on my heart?
