Digging Deep: A Dangerous Descent (Jonah 1:1-4)

Psalm 1 describes the blessed person as one who has dug deep into God's Word, making it the source of his daily meditation.

This week we look back at Pastor Kim's message from Jonah 1:1-4.

The Real Controversy of Christmas

Nathan Busenitz, historical theologian extraordinaire and one of the proprietors of the excellent Cripplegate blog, has posted a helpful historical perspective on the real controversy of Christmas. He writes:

Mention “Christmas” and “controversy” together in the same sentence, and most evangelicals will assume you’re talking about Santa Claus, Christmas trees, or the secularization of the winter holiday season.

A chill is in the air, stockings have been hung, and every square inch of your life has been inundated with a crush of Christmas music.
