Is Facebook listening to your phone calls?

The "Reply All" podcast did some research and attempted to get to the bottom of whether Facebook listens in on your phone calls. Anecdotal evidence provided by interviews and podcast listeners who called in for the episode will make you think twice.

For the Love of Money

I recently preached a sermon on Money - our use, misuse and abuse of it and examined why the Bible says that the love of money is the root of all sorts of evil. Check it out if and tell me if we fulfilled our promise to "pull no punches in an all-out attack on faulty thinking, greed and fear related to our finances."

#Loveyourwork?

It's wonderful when we love our work. But should it be an expectation or "norm," or is it a blessing? And how can we be good stewards of our job-loving around those who may not enjoy theirs?

Need wind in your sails?

Sometimes we find ourselves "stuck." We drift from initial discomfort to eventual despondency. We long for something to happen, for a break to come our way, for our circumstances to change. I've found one principle that has helped me immensely when I find myself in the doldrums.

Sunday mornings

Reviewing a sermon on Sunday mornings is more challenging when events like #Charlottesville demand a response. The message of Jesus is not less important for current events like these but more powerfully relevant.
