@kkdumez ‘s new book hits bookstores and mailboxes on Tuesday. I can’t wait to see how it opens eyes, makes people think, and hopefully connects some dots. A new Sunday, a new Subst*ck. In this one I wrestle with some thoughts from @kkdumez new book, explore the idea of holiness theology, and remind all of us that nuance is important and maybe the journey is the point. Figured I’d jump on a trend I liked. 😆 What’s your basic five year plan these days?

After opening the store, I went camping with my family. Then I watched as the orders poured in. It was overwhelming and exciting!

    Irony and Apostasy: Finding a Solid Faith

    I love good irony. And there is something amazingly ironic about a Christian songwriter and an Evangelical poster-boy announcing they are leaving the faith, and then the lead singer of a Christian rock band nailing the world with the truth. John Cooper, lead singer of the band, Skillet, went viral over the past few days with his bold and honest Facebook post. Skillet. There was a time when I was pretty sure a Christian rock band like this actually worshiped the devil. Haha! Now I find myself shaking my head and smiling, because this is exactly how the Real Jesus works. “What in God’s name is happening in Christianity?” John…
