 | » Alienation -- What Happened?

 | » Zeus our problem
by Matt Friedeman
For Christians, any other "god" -- or the tangible reality reflected in our lives -- is an idol worth rebuking. The Church, like much of the world, has been enticed by the temptations of eroticism, wine, music, beauty, and wealth. And somet... read more

 | » Entertain us
by Brad Locke

 | » Statue Of Liberty Should Be A Liberated Woman
by Frederick Meekins
One of the most comic irrationalities to come out of the Vietnam War that a village had to be destroyed in order to save it. Half a world away, the comment has become something of a joke ever since epitomizing government stupidity; however, as simila... read more

 | » Crossing the Chasm
by Marsha Jordan

| » Dead Men Walking
by Marsha Jordan
Lazarus had been dead and rotting in the grave for days. His sister told Jesus, "He stinketh." (And who says there's no humor in the Bible?) But Jesus called Lazarus out of the grave. When He came upon a funeral procession, Jesus raised tha... read more

| » English Need Not Board
by Frederick Meekins
Rosa Parks earned her place in American iconography for refusing to go to the back of the bus. But at least she would have been permitted to remain on the bus, which would have been more than is being allowed for three Saint Paul school children who ... read more

| » Extreme Makeover
by Marsha Jordan
The husband and I are "boat people." Not the kind that fled from Viet Nam. We're the kind of boat people who drive half a day to wait in line for an hour at the boat landing, just to take a thirty minute boat ride. H.M. is actually more of ... read more

by Frederick Meekins
It has been said that we have come as far as we have only because we stand on the shoulders of giants. One of the strengths of ethics when studied as part of a survey of Western civilization has been the discipline's emphasis on consulting the accumu... read more

 | » Wanted: More Ministers Like Vincent Fields
by Rev. Mark Creech

| » Not a Simple 'Yes' or 'No'
by Brad Locke
As much as Mark McGwire's exclusion from the Baseball Hall of Fame says about him, it says a lot more about the voters and how they reflect the various sentiments of the general sporting public. There is a minority that supports McGwire's induction a... read more
