Ann Coulter Calls Me A Liberal
Ann Coulter thinks I’m liberal– actually, I guess that might include all of us who are part of the Evangelical Immigration Table are– and that’s quite a group to call liberal. ;-)
Abercrombie And Fitch And Homelessness and You
This is wrong. It is, to use a word I do not use lightly, evil. It is stigmatizing an already stigmatized group in order to “strike back” at a brand that let you down. One of our idols failed us, and so we critique them by shooting video of vulnerable people wearing their clothes in order to lampoon the brand.
Deciphering Missions
[Note:some strong language in this article]
While I was virtually paralyzed by depression and anxiety, I used Missionary Code to turn every innocuous coffee date with a friend into “discipleship time”. Hours spent circling Facebook were important to “support development”, and everyday interactions with grocery store clerks and bank tellers suddenly became meaningful when referred to as “intentional relationships”. Oh, and the things your supporters do in their time off (like running, or taking classes, or hanging out with their kids) are things you get to claim, according to Missionary Code, as work.
5 Reasons I Meet With Strangers (in My Case, via Twitter) & Would Commend It to You
Well, I do this as an intentional discipline. I can spend a lot of my life just meeting with people who are on my agenda– and that is a good thing.

Rich Manhattan moms hire handicapped tour guides so kids can cut lines at Disney World
“You can’t go to Disney without a tour concierge,’’ she sniffed. “This is how the 1 percent does Disney.”
The woman said she hired a Dream Tours guide to escort her, her husband and their 1-year-old son and 5-year-old daughter through the park in a motorized scooter with a “handicapped” sign on it. The group was sent straight to an auxiliary entrance at the front of each attraction.

Woman accused of using Bible as a weapon
The arrest report said Evelyn Mills Moore, 57, of Kings Mountain struck the other woman “numerous times about her body with a closed fist and striking her with a Bible about her left arm,” the Gaston Gazette reported Tuesday.
The alleged victim was left with bruises and abrasions to her head, face and arms after the Saturday incident, police said.
