The Bad Samaritan Laws

Lately here in America, I have been reading online about different states trying to pass laws where people can deny service to others based on their deeply held religious beliefs. Such as, not agreeing to the gay lifestyle because of my Christian beliefs so I choose not to serve them. It is usually spouted by self-identified Christians protecting their "religious freedom". Now, if you own your own company and you feel in your beliefs a certain way, you can do what you want. You shouldn't be forced to go against your faith - let the market decide then. But, if you are a part of a national chain, then I have a problem with that. My biggest frustration is when people hide behind their faith to justify bad behavior towards others. There is a sense of persecution held by Christians here, that I don't see. Complaints about being wished "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas" Or gays getting married damaging their marriage somehow. Or, I don't ...

The Ballad of Chris & Susan: Harvester of Sorrow

When I made my vows to my wife on October 25, 2008 I meant them. I promised to love, honor, and cherish her all the days of my life. More than five years later, I have striven to live up to those promises I made with God's help. Some days are more successful than others. Like most couples, we have our differences and our fights. Luckily, none of them involve yelling much (she doesn't yell and I yell occasionally). Even when we have our arguments, we made a vow to discuss it before we go to bed. It doesn't do us any good to sleep when angry - you tend not to sleep anyways. Plus, it keeps us from dwelling on the situation and to allow it to snowball into something bigger. We may not come to an agreement always, but we make a point to try and deal with it. We try not to point a finger at the other, but relate how the situation makes us feel. Sleep tends to be a little better afterwards. That being said, I recently feel that I have hurt my wife deeply and in such a way it may...

Five Loaves & Two Fish

Every now and then, God will press something important in my life. Some lesson, perhaps some healing. But, there is one place that God keeps bringing me back to during the last few years. I wander, sometimes God wants to show me something else that's important - but once done, he brings me back here. Where he is - is the passage John 6: 8-9. "Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up, 'Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?" I have written about Andrew in the past and how I identify with him. He's a background character for the most part, included in the apostle roll call - but never usually front & center like Peter or Paul. Here in this passage is one of the few times Andrew takes a starring role in the story. We know this story because it is the miracle of Jesus feeding the five thousand. A story I have known backwards and forwards since I was a small child in ...
