Re: The Chosen
it's more like storytelling than like a straight telling of just what is in the text, it doesn't try to make you understand everything about relationships and emotions in Hellenistic Judaism, but I thought it very compelling and good. The clothing and houses and artifacts seem quite authentic. It's...

Re: The Chosen
My wife and I watched a few episodes. I liked it. She thought it took too much liberty, going beyond what the text actually tells you, expressing what was sometimes very Western and modern emotion that we would have in the same situation. I think that's true, it's more like storytelling than like a...

Hello from Hurricane Idalia territory!
It's been almost a week since Idalia slammed into the Taylor County coast, transforming our natural coastline into acres of snapped trees and damaged homes. My home was thankfully spared. However, there are trees down everywhere. We are still without power at this time. Others were not so lucky. Sig...

Re: White people in the South

Re: Revival is spreading
Another account: Behind the Scenes of Revival Confession: I went to Wilmore. I didn’t feel I needed to go (see earlier post) but some close friends at the University/Seedbed asked me to help. When they called, I knew God was inviting me. Help with what? For 9 straight days at 2 hour increments, coll...
