I wanted to talk about an issue that’s near and dear to my heart, because we have so much of it in my family and maybe you can tell me if this has touched your families as well…hearing loss! We’ve got a lot of hearing loss in my family, so if some of you out there have hearing loss, or need hearing aids, or know someone who does, I just want to tell you it’s going to be okay.... Read more

Hi, I’m Jefferson Drexler – a dad of four boys who daily tries his darndest to avoid saying things like “don’t make me turn this car around” or “one more peep and we’re all going home” not because I don’t want to sound like my parents, but because I simply don’t want to have to follow through on such killjoy threats – and this is a bonus episode of Parent Like You Mean It – the podcast where we... Read more

Suzanne Lederer leads us in connecting with God through Lectio Divina, or “Sacred Reading”. Colossians 1:19-22 (NLT) For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ, and through him God reconciled everything to himself.
  He made peace with everything in heaven and on earth
 by means of Christ’s blood on the cross. This includes you who were once far away from God. You were his enemies, separated from him by your evil thoughts and actions.  Yet now... Read more

From Certified Life Coach Dixie Diamanti, Author of Climbing Out of the Box and Fifty Ways to Meet Your Lover: I was on a local track in a park and it was an otherwise beautiful day, aside from the wind whipping my hair around.   As I walked I was talking to Jesus, as is my custom when I am alone. As I was chatting with him I began thinking of my childhood and how hard it was.   My left arm was crippled at... Read more

I had the awesome privilege this morning to take my family to the movies and see the new, 2014 version of the movie Annie. Like many parents my age, I grew up singing along to the 1982 version, and I gotta say… I loved the new version just as much. But, while I was watching it, I remembered a recent article that I read on Yahoo Parenting by Rachel Bertsche titled “Target’s Annie Ads Spark Controversy”. Here’s the column,... Read more

To purchase the entire DVD set of the Summit Lecture Series, visit summit.org. As recently as in 2008, Kenneth Miller and Joseph Levine were quoted in national textbooks: “In their early stages of development, chickens, turtles, and rats look similar, providing evidence that they shared a common ancestry.” If the publishers and educators were honest about the data, they could (maybe even should) equally say that they shared a common designer. That is an equally legitimate interference from the evidence. But... Read more

Welcome to the Big Picture Podcast. I’m Joel Fieri and this podcast seeks to begin and hopefully sustain a conversation about current trends, ideas and issues in the Church and greater society. Today we’re going to check in again with the Back Row Baptist.  What’s on his radar this week is a problem that’s being discussed more and more in Christian circles, which is an alarming trend of young Christians abandoning their faith as they move out into college and young... Read more

In Biology: Concepts and Connections, a 2009 textbook, in reference to the homology of several different existing and extinct creatures, it was written: “Also providing evidence for evolution… Anatomical similarities between many species give signs of common descent.” It could have, maybe even should have also said, “Also providing evidence for intelligent design… Anatomical similarities between many species give signs of a common designer.” If they had posted both of these facts, it would then be an equally legitimate interpretation... Read more
