Dispatches from T4G: Day Three–Sacrifice and Sayonara

Today’s very quick thoughts: 1. One of the hardest things about T4G is the fact that many friends from the past are around. We’re talking the type who you never see. This makes it really hard to know what to do in organizing one’s schedule. Do you listen to the speaker who’s got great things [...]

Dispatches from T4G: Day Two–Cupcakes and Curses

Quick thoughts from another very long and very rich day. 1. The opportunity to connect with fellow like-minded Christians is simply breathtaking at a conference of the magnitude of T4G.

John MacArthur in Stretchy Pants

I’ve been on the road for a few days, but I’m back, and I’m here to give you what you were previously lacking in life: a picture of Dr. John MacArthur, renowned preacher of the Word of God, in what one can only call “stretchy pants” in a post-Nacho Libre world. With this fifth promo [...]
