May 17, 2012 Another Helping of Sin Pie (Hosea Series) I love pie. Cherry, apple, pecan, pumpkin… I’m not picky.  I don’t think I’ve yet met a pie I couldn’t eat too much of. My neighbor made me a pie this past week. I don’t remember what she called it, 0
May 15, 2012 True Love: The Divine Romance (Hosea Series) One of my favorite books is The Princess Bride. The movie is good, but not the same. The one-liners are classic. On the surface, it’s a standard fairy tale, and follows standard happily-ever-after format: Scene 1: Boy Meets Girl Scene 0
May 9, 2012 Taming the Shrew – the Hesed of the Lord (Hosea Series) In the movie 10 Things I Hate About You (a modern retelling of Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew), Heath Ledger is a headstrong guy who successfully woos – or wears down, depending on your perspective – Julia Stiles, who 0

April 17, 2012 Hosea: a Fairy Tale of God’s Stubborn Love Fairy Tales seem ingrained in us. We read them as children, and they form the structure for virtually every epic story mankind has ever told. A prince fights to rescue the princess from the dragon/tower/wicked stepmother, and they live happily 0
March 14, 2012 Turning Traitor In the movie “How to Train Your Dragon,” the hero – Hiccup – is in a tough spot. If you’re born into his town, you grow up to be a big, strong Viking who kills dragons. Hiccup is not big 0
February 27, 2012 Go All In On January 8, 1956, five missionaries were brutally murdered in a remote area of Ecuador by a primitive, isolated tribe who felt threatened by these newcomers.  All five had distinguished themselves in some way back home, and could have had 0
