Rob Bell and Carlton Cuse to team up on new ABC show “Stronger”

September 30th, 2011

According to deadline.com, “Lost” executive producer Carlton Cuse and controversial pastor/author Rob Bell have teamed up for a new ABC TV show called “Stronger” that will apparently have spiritual over-tones.

In this blogger’s humble opinion, there is no longer any need to speculate as to why Bell resigned from his mega-church pastorate.  Just sayin’.

The Principle of the Path By Andy Stanley

September 21st, 2011

In his latest book, Andy Stanley proposes that while there are several paths one can take in life, it is up to each of us to choose the path that will take us from where we are to where we want to be.  Stanley discusses at length the fact that, throughout life, we will come to many “forks-in-the-road” and that the choices we make at these crossroads ultimately comprise the fabric of our lives.

SBC President Appoints Name Change Task Force

September 20th, 2011

As I’m sure many of you have heard by now, current SBC president, Bryant Wright, has appointed a “task force” to study the legal and financial ramifications of changing the name of the nation’s largest protestant denomination.  Unlike many other groups, the Southern Baptist Convention has never had a name change in its 166-year history.  Historically, there has been much opposition to such a move by the duly elected messengers.
