LOST ending
I predict that at the end of LOST, Jack will take Jacob's spot and Sawyer will take the other guy's (man in black... smoke monster guy) spot.
So... There you go. That is my (unfinished) theory.

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!
Here is a reading of my favorite Seuss book: Marvin K. Mooney
(Read by me!)
(I just learned that this book was released the year that I was born!)
And here are some of my favorite quotes:

The Truth Project
I am thinking about doing this series at Edgewood over the summer. We went through this at North Hills a couple of years ago, and it was really good.
Book Wish List
Voices from the Past: Puritan Devotional Readings
I am adding this to my book wishlist. I love all of that old Puritan stuff. People just don't talk like that anymore.
The thing that I find the most interesting about their writings is the passion. One usually doesn't think about Puritans and have the word passion come up, but when you start reading their prayers (like in The Valley of Vision
) you can hear it in every page. They had a real passion for the person of God.

Atheist Christopher Hitchens knows what a Christian is
Interesting post from Randy Alcorn...
In a recent interview, Christopher Hitchens, the fervent atheist and author of God Is Not Great, showed he has a much clearer understanding of what it means to be a Christian than the Unitarian minister, who claims to be a Christian, interviewing him.
Marilyn Sewell: The religion you cite in your book is generally the fundamentalist faith of various kinds. I'm a liberal Christian, and I don't take the stories from the scripture literally. I don't believe in the doctrine of atonement (that Jesus died for our sins, for example). Do you make a distinction between fundamentalist faith and liberal religion?
Christopher Hitchens: I would say that if you don't believe that Jesus of Nazareth was the Christ and Messiah, and that he rose again from the dead and by his sacrifice our sins are forgiven, you're really not in any meaningful sense a Christian.

A Reader's Response to One of Randy's Books
Just a note to say thanks again for Lord Foulgrin's Letters. I re-read the book this week as I flew to Florida and back. It is an excellent work that really brings worldview thinking to life. I loved it the first time I read it and I enjoyed it even more this time. —M.H., Prison Fellowship Oregon
