The American Reformer event’s been the highlight of my week. Solid folks doing solid work, and pulling together quite the cast of characters while they’re at it.

The Slow Death of the Well-Suited Couple I went to high school in the ’90s, out in rural Indiana. I was involved in sports, so I got to know a good number of people from surrounding counties—places where everyone had a well pump, a church, and at least one cousin they didn’t

There once was a rascal named Foxe, An exceptionally curious boy. He dashed through the grass, Past the dog’s scattered toys, And grinned like a kid with a ploy. He zipped past the trampoline springs, While the birds chirped incredible things. With the rooster on guard, And

The Pietistic Jesus-Juker He’s always there. Always watching. Always waiting to strike. A newlywed gazes into the bright blue eyes of his bride and says, “I love the light I see in your eyes.” But out of the bushes jumps the Jesus-Juker: “You should say you love the Light of

Frankly, even when I’m on vacation, I dedicate at least 90 minutes each morning to answering emails for both my day job and the church. I just get up early before my family or if I must I stay up late. If you’re leading any organization, you have to stay aware of the condition of
