New content nearly every Tuesday for pastors, teachers, and other leaders looking for support in fulfilling their responsibility to build their people in discipleship of the mind, including confidence in the faith and the ability to articulate and live according to a biblical worldview.
Please use the comment box below to let me know what’s on your mind concerning these things. I’ll be glad to open it up for discussion.
Weekly posting is temporarily on hold while I settle in to a new position with a new mission agency.

FYI : Just to clarify the word/idea of “faith”; faith is a synonym for “trust” in religious usage. What I mean is that one has ‘faith’ or ‘trust’ in that which one knows FACTS ABOUT (I.e. ‘ I trust that bridge to use it because I know it was just constructed, and made of quality material’).
To understand religeons use of “faith”, one need only replace the example of the bridge and its use of ‘trust’ with ‘faith’. One has “faith” in something based on the facts that form its foundation – or, shortly, “I believe in John because I KNOW him to be always honest. Faith is grounded in fact. There are many other uses of the word, but the historic use of Faith in a religious context always ment to men of faith like Luther or Calvin or Augustine that belief was grounded in Truth.
In this sense, religeon and science have much in common. Truths regarding religeon form the foundation for faith or trust or belief.
