“You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.” This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets. — Jesus of Nazareth […]
What does it mean to think Christianly? — part 02
In yesterday’s post, I began to talk about the idea of thinking Christianly. There is, of course, a philosophical component to that, but that is not all that I was talking about. Nevertheless, do let me make a comment on philosophy and thinking Christianly. Not that long ago, a comment was made that I needed […]
Good news from Fox Nation

What does it mean to think Christianly? — part 01
Those of you who read this blog know that some of my favorite modern authors are G.K. Chesterton, J.R.R. Tolkien, and C.S. Lewis. There is a reason why they are some of my favorites. All three of them majored in the concept of thinking Christianly. Now, that is not a term that is in the […]
A coming of age story from a Christian professor
It seems as though I have unwittingly uncovered a subject too long left not discussed, that of Christian authors who do not fit into the mold of the CBA or the ECPA.

G.K. Chesterton on fairy tales

The American Academy […]
Calvin is freed!
And, because of the Incarnation, Life, Death, and Resurrection of Our Lord, we, too, have been ransomed. Christ’s coming to Earth began the victory march that eventually overthrew the gates of hell and won the victory over Satan.

Christmas Eve 2009
St. John Chrysostom’s Christmas Homily: BEHOLD a new and wondrous mystery. My ears resound to the Shepherd’s song, piping no soft melody, but chanting full forth a heavenly hymn. The Angels sing. The Archangels blend their voice in harmony. The Cherubim hymn their joyful praise. The Seraphim exalt His glory. All join to praise this […]
The furry universe and vampire chick-lit
Well, I did not think yesterday that my vampire chick-lit post would lead to another one, but it does give me the opportunity to promote a Christian writer who is working in the area of Furry Science Fiction or the Furry Universe. His name is Ken Pick and he has been published in a Christian […]
