    It’s true!! After countless years of searching, Noah’s ark has finally been found by NBC’s Today show!! Apparently, everyone has been looking in the wrong place. It wasn’t tucked away in the mountains of Turkey. It’s been in the Netherlands all along! Ok, maybe this isn’t technically the Biblical Noah’s ark, but there is definitely a real ark docked in the Netherlands which claims to be an exact replica based on the dimensions listed in Genesis. So, if... Read more

    This is pretty funny. I assume these tips are also the actual rules for dating at Bob Jones University. The really funny thing is, I’m only half kidding about that. Check out their student handbook and see for yourself. The dating rules start on page 22. Read more

    I intentionally don’t give much attention to Westboro Baptist and their nonsense. However, this counterprotest was too amusing not to share. I’m not sure what the zombie costumes were meant to represent. Maybe it’s a really subtle nod to the resurrection of the dead? Yeah, probably not. Read more

    Earlier this summer I had the chance to take a group of high school students on a mission trip to England. While we did many of the “typical” mission trip sorts of things, which were wonderful, the highlight of the trip for me, and many of the students, sort of came out of nowhere. It happened at a church. Go figure. But not just any church. On our first day of work in Dewsbury, England we had the... Read more

      I admit it. I like going to church. I know that’s not the hip or cool thing to say these days, but I actually do enjoy spending my Sunday mornings at church. That’s not to say that those who struggle with or get frustrated by church don’t have legitimate frustrations. Many of them do and, as I’ve argued before, perhaps sometimes they do need a break from regular church attendance. I don’t want to diminish the importance... Read more
