  • Winter Intercession

     By Aaron Lord

    I’ve been overhearing a lot of Chico State students talking about intercession lately. Actually, I’m kidding. They’re really talking about winter intersession (before regular classes resume at the end of January). But wouldn’t it be cool if it were the other kind of intercession that they were talking about–intercessory prayer?... [Read More]

    Christians are so uncool. At least Rolling Stone thinks so. They were going to run a story about down & dirty street ministry on the Spanish island of Ibiza, but RS pulled the story, because apparently they’re mad at Christians for getting Bush re-elected. In their response, the brothers and... [Read More]

    I know, O LORD, that the way of man is not in himself, that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps. Correct me, O LORD, but in justice; not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing. (Jer 10:23-24, ESV) [Read More]

They never even went to the Holy Land. Pope Innocent said Satan was behind the whole thing. Well, yeah! In his wrap-up to the chapter on... [Read More]

     By Aaron Lord

    Posted on December 5, 2004

    I rented Luther this weekend and watched it twice. The opening credits proudly tout the name of the Lutheran bank that bankrolled the film (which I thought was kind of weird… you never see B of A or Wells Fargo logos come up with the studio logos at the beginning... [Read More]

  • Kill Your IE!

    More than a year ago I e-mailed Relevant and asked them to fix their website because it was always crashing my Netscape. (Now, don’t misunderstand me–I’m not a hardcore Netscape user, but during this particular period I was testing out other browsers, and also using them to debug clients’ sites.)... [Read More]

  • The Paradox of Honesty

     By Aaron Lord

    Posted on December 3, 2004

    This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk... [Read More]
