Wanting the Real God

Posted on August 23, 2013 Written by Zachary Schmoll 4 Comments

I don’t know about you, but when I want something, I don’t want a cheap imitation. If I order a Coca-Cola Classic, I would be somewhat disappointed to be given a random, private-label, store-brand generic cola. Authenticity matters. However, it doesn’t just matter in soda. It also matters when we are talking about God.

Number our days

Numbering our days: a reflection on Psalm 90

Qualfification

A Qualification of Yesterday’s Post

A Tweet in reaction to yesterday’s post made it apparent that I need to provide a qualification of some of my comments.

Surgery

I stand before my maker, becoming unmade and then made again, sometimes yielding, sometimes fighting, but always under the surgeon’s knife. Which is greater, the pain of being shaped or the pain of being left as I am?
