Simply amazing.

This should be fun!
Going to seminary involves books… LOTS of books. Half way through my first semester I saw a guy in class open one of his books and proceed to place it on the small metal stand… BRILLIANT I thought. Right there, next to his laptop sat his...
I was thinking yesterday about the process I went through that lead me to seminary. It was a long and drawn out process (here are some excerpts). While there were MANY factors that influenced my decision to attend seminary, for me the Bible was most...
So, I’m sitting in the airport with my wife and we’re getting ready to head home from a short mini vacation. We knew that we could use some time away, just the two of us, after such a crazy 6 (actually 12) months. So, I arranged for my...
This is a guest post written by Mark Warnock. People wash out of seminary and out of ministry all the time. Sometimes the most promising people in ministry self-destruct, abruptly landing in the hospital, divorce court, or on the front page. Others...

A couple days ago I introduced you to Kari Patterson. Today, we’ll meet her husband Jeff: Jeff, how did you come to know the Lord? God is so good. I grew up in a mainline Protestant denomination and probably heard the Gospel at some point, was...
This question is in honor of all this year’s seminary graduates. Now that the sentimentality is out of the way, let me be clear… I hate this question. I guess the thing that I hate about the question is that it seems to me that, by...
