What is My One Sentence Bible? 7-8-10: People who don’t want to believe the miraculous always defer to spreading evil rumors, whether about Jesus or us.

Matthew 9:13 Being faithfully convinced to what many think is outlandish always seems to draw... Read more

Well, this ‘I’m Sorry’ Campaign has officially hit craziness. 100% of yesterday was spent fielding media requests, doing interviews and writing transparently to skeptics about The Marin Foundation. In the coming days/weeks, I will be posting all of my email exchanges to the skeptics out there for you to read as well. Yesterday I posted that three super duper popular... Read more
