Angry Nerds →
Writer Greg Stier gives a humorous take on the current trend:
Is it me or is there a growing number of theologically conservative preachers, teachers and seminary students who just seem ticked off all of the time? They soak in all of their “ologies” (Soteriology, Hamartiology, Christology, Pneumatology, etc) and come out of their Bible bathtubs bubbling with bitterness, bile and bite....

Beauty Vs. Sexuality →
Writer Hugo Schwyzer writes on why the fear of lust shames both men and women.
Our contemporary cultural dialogue about men emphasizes the decisive role that biology plays in driving behavior. Evolutionary psychologists, brain researchers and TV doctors regularly produce studies “proving” men are hardwired to be visually stimulated or to cheat on their wives. The emphasis is on men’s helplessness...

"I Learned About Girls" Or Why I Love Discipling
Me: What's one thing you learned in school AND in life? I learned about being "the aroma of Christ" in 2 Corinthians 2.
J: In Chem, I learned about weak acid/base reactions and how to determine pH given certain concentrations. (Laughs) In life...I learned about girls.
Me: (Laughs) What about girls?
J: Glad you asked (Laughs). I pretty much learned through an experience I had. It was pretty embarrassing, but I learned how God wants us to approach girls and the kind of relationships we should form with them, particularly sisters in Christ.
Me (Internally): I like where this is going.
*Personal conversation continues*
J: But how come she never asked for my number? Like, "Oh, by the way, what's your number?"
Me: Because girls don't ask for a guy's numbers. It's the other way around. Guys are supposed to be the pursuer.

It looks like my little brother is joining Sigma...
I don’t know what to feel about this, other than it is his life and that I know God has his back.
But I do pray that God will use him in that fraternity so that he will be an “aroma of Christ” (2 Corinthians 2:15). I also pray that he will be strong when faced with temptations (James 1:12) that the fraternity life tends to bring.
In any case, I’m excited for him and glad...
