The Best Highlighter for Your Bible.
2008-03-20 03:01:00 I’m a bit of a highlighter connoisseur. Perhaps more of a junkie. I love to highlight. It’s a bit of a problem really. If there were a “Highlighter s Anonymous”, I’d be a card carrying member…if not the president. I use highlighting sort of as a journaling technique. As I read, I highlight the text of ...

Cross Centered or Tomb Centered?
2008-02-28 06:32:00 At the risk of sounding heretical, and I say this with much fear and trembling, would it make more sense for us as Christians to live an “Empty Tomb ” centered life or a “Cross ” centered life? Man, that sounds like a leap just typing it, but think about it. Where as the cross was the place and ...
