The Church (Part 2): The Body, The Bride, and the Battalion

Last time, we discussed the “Trail of Blood,” and how our Christian forefathers faced persecution and martyrdom for standing firm in their Faith. The history of the Church and the line of the Baptists is riddled with suffering and sacrifice for the cause of Christ. Now, society is collapsing into carnality as our churches are… Continue reading The Church (Part 2): The Body, The Bride, and the Battalion

The Church (Part 1): Trail of Blood

Most of us know the difference between The Christian Church and the local church. One is spiritual, and the other is physical.

Altering the Availability Heuristic

A heuristic is “a mental shortcut that allows an individual to make a decision, pass judgment, or solve a problem quickly and with minimal mental effort.” We use heuristics all the time. In any given situation, we are armed with data about the situation — usually sensory — and use heuristics to fill in the… Continue reading Altering the Availability Heuristic

Why I Write

“Under the governance of the printing press, discourse in America was different than it is now – generally coherent, serious, and rational”   -Neil Postman, Amusing Ourselves to Death  The value of the written word has been lost in our postmodern American culture. The complexity of well written prose has given way to “tweets written by… Continue reading Why I Write
