For those who are interested, Burchett has responded to my response about his response to people who responded negatively to The Shack here.
In this response, he is somewhat complimentary towards me. But he I believe he twists what I said by characterizing it as such: “He decided that I am illogical, condescending and ignorant.” and “The [...]

Who doesn’t miss Jennifer Knapp?
I imagine the people who said she was just Alanis Morissette with Christian lyrics would even admit they would like another album soon. These days, her fans still praise (and buy) her remastered re-releases, they keep all her ancient chat-boards alive, and some even begin construction of new fan websites [...]

More than once, friends of mine have wondered about the name I chose for this blog: Postmortemism. Yeah, at first glance it might seem…morbid sounding. I felt it was clear enough with the verse from Romans tacked up below it, but perhaps some more explanation might be helpful. Hopefully this makes [...]

I’ve had quite a break from blogging, to say the least. But after listening to the Al Mohler interview of Phil Johnson, in which it was mentioned the average blog lasts only 8 weeks, I was inspired to attempt to post more regularly. I don’t want postmortemism to be just another statistic. [...]

In the next few weeks, I’ll be starting my student teaching at Blaine High School. I’m hoping to have a good time doing this, but I’m nervous. I may continue my lack of posting for a while longer as I get comfortable with my new responsibilities. I would really appreciate your prayers [...]

Modern espresso machines range from $40 to over $1,000 for some higher end models. I’ve heard you have to spend at least $150 to get a decent machine that will last for a significant period of time.
I recently acquired something I expect to use for quite some time: a stove-top espresso maker. At [...]

Of all God’s creatures,
Man is the only one, who
Knows that he will die.

Ecclesiastes 3:11
He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end.

I’ve decided to withdraw from my fantasy basketball team today. I’ve really been working about only making decisions to do things based on faith; because I know from Scripture that that which does not come from faith is sin.
For those who don’t know, fantasy basketball is commonly played by each person putting money in [...]

As the fall quarter has arrived at Western Washington University, I have returned to day-to-day classes and, as my 3 readers will note, spent less time on this blog. I will try to balance the schedule in such a way that I’ll be able to continue posting 2-3 blogs per week.
Yesterday, in one of [...]

Perhaps no area of my life is more confusing or dramatic than dating. Questions like “Does she like me?”. “Do I really like her?”, “What did she mean by that?”, and most importantly, “How am I trusting God in this situation?” will likely continue to be big issues until I find the upcoming Mrs. [...]
