1 August 2010 This follow-up article to The Agony and the Ecstasy gives an update on Brian's situation after seven months of unemployment. "Do we know what it means to wait or hope on God, being bound together with Him such that unless or until He moves it is nigh unto impossible for us to take a step or utter a word?" |

12 June 2010 To advance the Kingdom of Heaven, we must unlearn the ways of our highly structured, rather expensive, staff intensive, slow to reproduce Western-style churches, the only church we have ever known, and relearn the forgotten ways when the early believers exploded from 20 thousand to 200 million in a couple centuries. |

6 March 2010 Today the Associated Press ran an article accusing Christian textbook publishers of bias because they don't promote the theory of evolution. Thus the small minority of homeschoolers who are not religious feel "isolated, frustrated and outnumbered"! What a tragedy! Christian publishers, you ought to be ashamed of yourselves! |

2 January 2010 What relief can we find for the pains of life? Are we able to find forgiveness for the one who hurts us? What about when that one is God? How do we answer the question, "God, why are You ALLOWING this to happen to me?" Two books Brian has read recently may very well hold the keys to addressing these issues. |

5 December 2008 On 4 March 1837, President Andrew Jackson gave his farewell address to the nation, of which he devoted over one-third to describe and warn against the evils of paper money. His insights are eerily prophetic, and seem as if they come from today's headlines. |

9 November 2008 In agreeing to be bound by the government’s 501c3 freedom of speech restrictions, has the American Church sold its prophetic voice for the sake of profit? Like Esau, has the American Church traded its birthright for a bowl of tax-exempt stew?! |
