Life in Christendom

What is the vision of life that we are called to delight in? What does life under the throne of grace look like for families, cats and bankers? Here is my attempt at making some inroads into the beauty of a Christ centred life.

Sacrifice

We want to hear about revival, rapture or a roll in the hay, not sacrifice. But sacrifice … [Read more...] about Sacrifice

A Hill to Die On

A Hill to Die On - Sermo Humilis

Open the Heavens

Open the Heavens - Sermo Humilis

Like the Wizard of Oz, the gods of this world want you to be dazzled from a distance while they remain hidden behind a curtain.
