Well, iMonks, it has been a very interesting week, has it not? We have a new leader of the church. We also have a new pope. Confused? So were those who selected the Final Four bracket. You ought to see the winner they came up with. And tomorrow—well, tomorrow is a day we all celebrateContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 3.16.13”

Saturday Ramblings 3.9.13
I’m tired, iMonks. Very tired. Bone tired. Tired in every way tired. I’m too tired to come up with my usual sidesplitting, hilarious opening paragraph. I know this comes as a great disappointment to you, but I’m sure you will forgive me once we get to the end and you see the great bonus videoContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 3.9.13”
Saturday Ramblings 3.2.13
Goodness gracious, iMonks. Do you know what today is? It’s the second day of March. March! As the saying goes, if March comes in like a, um, bear, it will go out like a hamster. Or something like that. March is the time of madness, when brackets are filled in and hair is pulled out.Continue reading “Saturday Ramblings 3.2.13”
But Seriously, Folks …
I was going to save this for Saturday Ramblings, but it is just too good to wait. Warning: Don’t be drinking anything when you watch this, or it will come shooting out of your nose. Just sayin’ … [yframe url=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CrzfbbgJu8M’%5D
The Scandal Of Shepherdless Flocks
They finished eating breakfast. Jesus: Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these other things? Simon Peter: Yes, Lord. You know that I love You. Jesus: Take care of My lambs. Jesus asked him a second time . . . Jesus: Simon, son of John, do you love Me? Simon Peter: Yes, Lord. You must surely know that I loveContinue reading “The Scandal Of Shepherdless Flocks”
Saturday Ramblings 2.23.13
Welcome to the holiest of all days, the last Saturday in February. Why is today so special? It is the annual Holland Hall Book Fair. What, you ask (if you could ask me), is the HHBF? It is a used book sale to support a private school in Tulsa. Is the school in trouble financially?Continue reading “Saturday Ramblings 2.23.13”
On Fire … Or Burned Out?
The email asked what the sender, I’m sure, meant as a good question for good Christians: “Are you on fire for Jesus?” It was an invitation to a conference, or to watch some service online. I forget which. But, as the email went on to say, if we are to see our world changed, weContinue reading “On Fire … Or Burned Out?”
Saturday Ramblings 2.16.13
Greetings, earthlings. Looks like we survived yet another brush with destiny. And asteroid with a name like DA14 drove by the neighborhood, but decided not to stop in to visit, unlike the meteorite that moved in like a loud-mouthed brother-in-law in Russia early yesterday morning. If we were going to be destroyed by an asteroid,Continue reading “Saturday Ramblings 2.16.13”
Saturday Ramblings 2.9.13
Greetings, iMonks. Welcome once again to our weekly gathering we like to call Saturday Ramblings. We tiptoe through the TULIP, or through the daisies (for those who are not of the Calvinist bent), trying not to get our feet wet or dirty so we don’t track mud in the iMonastery. I come bearing a giftContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 2.9.13”
What Evangelicalism Gets Right
I want to wrap up my month-long harang at evangelicalism—the camp I have made my home for nearly 40 years now—by talking about what evangelicalism gets right. Yes, there are a few things we do manage to do in a good way, at least once in a while. For each of the following I couldContinue reading “What Evangelicalism Gets Right”
