Phil Keaggy, Thirty-Five Years On

This week's regular podcast is Scott Ross' recent 700 Club interview with Phil Keaggy, who was recently inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame.  Phil is without a doubt the greatest guitarist to have ever graced contemporary Christian music.  And there's life changing potential in that. In one of my older articles, I stated …

So What Are We Supposed To Do, Dr. Dobson?

Evidently James Dobson isn't any happier with John McCain than he is with anyone else: As they would ask in Russia, what is to be done? What this shows, unfortunately, is that a wide swath of Evangelical leaders in the U.S. doesn't have a viable game plan for Evangelicals relative to the state.  Say what …

Spengler Weighs in on Mormonism

Having made a career of making Muslims mad, he turns his attention towards Mormonism and Mitt Romney: American Christianity often fails to understand its inner tension between the earthly and heavenly kingdoms.

No Matter Where Mike Huckabee Turns…

Mike Huckabee's website informs us of the following: The former governor and his wife, Janet, live in North Little Rock.

That’s One Way to Achieve Change, and More Boomer Provincialism

"A Thinking Democrate" states the obvious in her reply to the story on the last Clinton-Obama debate: When Hillary was asked how did she represent change in this election, her answer was that she is a woman.
