We Evangelicals struggle with mysteries. Answers are sought, meanings defined, and theology put in nice, neat boxes for clarification, or simply to justify our denominational notions. As Augustine notes, we are talking about God, after all. Why is it surprising that we do not understand? If we did understand, then it would not be God. Mysteries remind us that God is bigger than our preconceived ideas about his involvement with those created in his image. Divine Mysteries: Concise and Thoug...

As for Tennessee’s role in the war, history remembers little more than its large contribution of volunteers and subsequent state moniker as “The Volunteer State.” Today, beliefs persist that the Mexican–American War was simply a colossal land grab for the United States in its pursuit o...

Plastic Cars and Plywood Houses is less about plastic cars and plywood houses, and more about other stuff. The book follows the life journey of a blundering, bumbling “trust fund kid” from private boarding school through middle age. There is quite a bit of allusion to recreational drug consumption and alcohol abuse humorously, but discouragingly depicted.
