These days, I do not post often but will try to do so when I have some time. I usually draw inspiration from reading. When I do get to read theological and devotional books (and the bible of course), I ask questions and reflect upon biblical passages and ideas from my personal theological perspective (and… Read More Welcome to Liberty Culture
Happy New Year. A few predictions for 2019. Here goes mine including a few weird ones. I’m interesting in knowing what some of your predictions are. 1. MUSIC: several Christian contemporary songs will hit the mainstream pop charts. 2.

Facebook wouldn’t admit it but I think Zuckerberg and Facebook’s ideals are being bought out by profit from foreign money. I was asking myself why he made these comments. Recent news (BBC here) was released that Facebook has developed a censorship tool for China. The Chinese Communist regime (PRC) is known to censor anything its… Read More “Fake news” is a misnomer
Hey people, here’s a good thought on human righteousness which prompted me to think more on whether it should always be devolved to “filthy rags” as Paul put it. It’s well-balanced.

I had been thinking about doing further studies in theology/ministry for a while now and decided to apply; and I was just accepted this summer. Yippee! I already have a… Read More Beginning D.Min studies

Besides, my wife said she likes the old look better. I guess that might be a good enough reason… Read More Going back to my old look for the blog
I don’t know if I’ll be able to check my blog for comments for the next five days as I’ll be in Minneapolis for a mission developer conference. I’ll be looking for a wireless signal for my laptop but if there’s nothing, I’ll still be happy. I’m looking forward to this event because I’ll be… Read More Attending a conference
Scott and Marv over at To Be Continued have just finished the last of the 8-part series “Response to Patton’s ‘Why I’m Not Charismatic’” (a 22-page PDF file). They’ve done a good job in critiquing Patton’s paper and causing us, in every position, to consider our own arguments more carefully.
