Debate Dynamics: How Faith, Logic, and Scripture Collide in Godlogic’s Dialogue with a Muslim Thinker
When faith and critical thinking collide, it’s not just about winning a debate—it’s about opening doors to deeper truth. Godlogic’s approach shows how persistence, honest questions, and appeals to reason can challenge even the strongest convictions, reminding readers that every theology must withstand close scrutiny.
Beyond the Verse: What Protestants and Catholics Overlook About the Bible’s Origins
You’ll never look at a Bible’s table of contents the same way again: Protestants and Catholics alike accept things about the Bible that aren’t written in scripture. For Catholics, that’s no scandal—tradition and Church authority are part of the story. If you’re ever hit with a “show-me-a-verse” challenge, remember: sometimes the answer isn’t in a verse at all.
Reading Between the Lines: Paul’s Allegory of Hagar and Sarah in Galatians 4
Paul’s allegory in Galatians 4 isn’t just a quirky scriptural moment—it’s a radical reimagining of spiritual family, law, and faith.

Restoring Love: One Man’s Antidote to Pornography
I’ve been cautiously encouraged by some recent posts on GirlsAskGuys (I’ve mentioned them before). In the last few weeks, I’ve seen an upsurge in posts about pornography. Two were from male users asking how to stop. One even identified himself as an atheist. It’s not enough to simply point out the harm that porn can […]
The Future of Internet Evangelism
It is commonly cited as fact that arguing on the internet is “dumb,” and “pointless,” and an overall “waste of time.” As far as generalizations go, this probably smacks of truth to many who have attempted to engage in the activity known as “internet evangelism,” whether the cause they were evangelizing was one of religion […]
Why Contraception Is Not Justified By “Unwanted Pregnancies”
As the Conclave was preparing to meet to elect our new pope, the news and Facebook were naturally full of all sorts of challenges and messages. One stood out in particular to me: A hope that the new pope would teach that contraception is acceptable in order to prevent “unwanted pregnancies”. I’ll briefly re-cap an […]
Sola Scriptura is a DISQUALIFYING Belief for Authentic Christianity.
I frequent a number of “Anti-Catholic” message boards, and have since I was a neophyte believer. I do it because it’s always good to stay ready and sharpened in your ability to give a defense of the faith – but also because it *is* missionary territory. Sometimes a “doozy” of a claim will come up, […]
Book Review: Baptized In The Spirit
I recently posted about an unpleasant experience I’d had at a retreat hosted by a charismatic community. It was unpleasant because they took a very condescending, holier-than-thou type of attitude towards people like me who are accustomed to (and prefer) silent, more contemplative worship. They believed (or at least seemed to) that not praying “in the Spirit” wasn’t praying […]
The Ultimate Advent / Christmas / Winter Song Collection
On Advent, Christmas (Holiday), Christmas (Secular), and Winter Music It’s no secret: I love Advent. I find something terribly saddening when people start playing Christmas music in October (or earlier), and then cease playing it on December 26th, thereby messing up the entire Advent season and Christmas season. Not because I dislike any of these songs, but […]
