Thoughts about life, faith, parenting, and more from the perspective of a Tardy.
Bible
Tower of Babel
“…the tower [of Babel] was not built so that people could ascend to heaven, but so that deity could descend to earth.” — John Walton

The Spiritual Man
The Spiritual Man—I recently put together a site where several friends and I can discuss a book online. We’re reading, “The Spiritual Man” by Watchman Nee. Check it out and feel free to join in the discussion.
Simply Good News
“…when this son of yours came, who has devoured your wealth with prostitutes, you killed the fattened calf for him.” Luke 15:30

This happens a lot since I’m so used to the KJV.

Joel Olsteen Interview
What Ever Happened to Sin?
It took me a while to make it past the first paragraph on this one, but the rest of the article is quite interesting:
In his interview with Larry King (CNN, June 20, 2005), Joel Osteen said that he is not sure what happens to people who reject Christ. King [...]
Comparing Translations
Comparing Translations is a great resource from a mostly objective point of view for understanding where our current Bible comes from. This is a great chart comparing Bibles’ literalness.
