What if the Roles of Overseas Missions were Reversed…

Suppose that the roles of Christian missions were switched. Suppose that instead of American-Christians going over to countries (i.e. Uganda, Kenya, India, Nicaragua and China) to spread the Gospel…that the native believers from those countries came here to America to spread the Gospel. What would that look like? That's a very weird concept to grasp,... Continue Reading →

Irresistible, Beautiful Grace on Youtube

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EW8tt7hNpGc By far my favorite Youtube video ever is this one from 2011, with only a little over 40,000 views.

Hmmm, where the heck was God’s “soverignty” during crazy events like the African Slave Trade???

Glory, Creation, & Clemson Football!!!!!

I went up to Clemson this past weekend. Clemson just breeds awesomeness. I have always been an avid people watcher/learner. There is this strange, immense amount of joy that comes from seeing other people experience just an ounce of happiness. Now that I’ve been a graduate and away for 4 months, it seems as if...
