The Whole Delivery

On the buildup towards this Easter Sunday, the images of those supposedly exhibiting the Christian faith (or so they say) has been for a lack of a better word, brutal. From the painful escapes of the Roman Catholic Church's cover up of child molestation events to the utter nutcases of the militia group planning to take down government officials, it's been nothing short of forgettable for one trying to probably explain to their atheist friends again "Why are they Christian" (or follow any other faith for that matter).

Because on my own, I wouldn’t even chose to share my sandwich. And I see God’s grace in sharing my sandwich. Grace isn’t always so grand. God is in the moment when the choice is stark:...

Probably my favorite song in my life:
