Trust and Obey – or Obey and Trust? Part Two
A Sad Late Addition After writing what is now called Part One of this article, something much more current popped into my mind (and heart). Reading again that little adage regarding acting yourself into a better way of thinking rather than vice versa jogged my memory...
Trust and Obey – or Obey and Trust? Part One
The old hymn has a popular stanza that puts it this way: “Trust and obey, for there’s no other way, to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.” It is obvious, of course, that the more we trust, the more likely we are to obey. But I definitely disagree with the...
Why I Don’t Vote
Although I don’t mention it often, I have mentioned publicly a number of times through the years that I don’t vote. I recently received a letter from a good friend who has a hard time with me over my position and urged me to rethink it. I promised him and others on a...
Agree on Everything? by Jonathan Lichtenwalter
As I have written elsewhere, I believe scripture is best viewed as a guide that leads us Christ, rather than as a rulebook to be uncritically applied to any and every context. I also am convinced that even the best of Christian traditions is full of failures and...

Recently, Jeanie Shaw published her doctoral dissertation in edited book format, “Re-Examining Our Lenses,” and I have published my book, “The Bible and Women: How Did I Miss So Much.” These books both deal with similar topics, topics which are both complex and...
Gobsmacked Again (by the Lamb Family)!
This British word basically means to be shocked or astounded. Simon on America’s Got Talent has used the term occasionally and his face reflects the definition. I just read Roger and Marcia Lamb’s new book, “This Doesn’t Feel Like Love Either.” After reading it, the...
The Sabbath–Douglas Jacoby
Chapter 9 ("from the book, "Messianic Judaism") -- The Sabbath This chapter addresses Messianic Judaism’s treatment of the Sabbath. The Messianics teach that we need to keep the Sabbath today as one of the Ten Commandments. Accordingly, members of this movement do not...
What Are You Learning? by Jim McCartney
“What are you learning?” is one of my favorite conversation starters. The response I get often tells me a lot about my conversation partner. I love to learn. There is so much to discover, big and small things, about others, about life, and even about myself. My love...
Are the Red-Letter Words of Jesus the Most Important?
For years, I have heard people declaring that the words spoken by Jesus, the red-letter words in many editions of the Gospel accounts, are the most important ones in the New Testament. Some make this declaration and leave it at that, while others follow up by...
