(ABP) -- I’m all about the United States Constitution. Next to the Bible, it may be my favorite document. I support and defend the rights of individuals to speak even if everything inside me is shouting, “Shut up!” Like when a thoughtless person shouts “Fire” in a crowded theater. Or when Fox News’ Glenn Beck said last week that church members should leave if their church is committed to social justice.

(ABP) -- Anne Rice, she of Interview with the Vampire fame, recommitted to her Catholic faith a few years ago and has since dedicated herself to writing novels that explore the life of Jesus. First came Christ the Lord: Out of Egpyt, and in 2008 Rice published Christ the Lord: The Road to Cana. This novel, which I am reading now, depicts Jesus’ life as a young adult leading up to his first miracle at the wedding in Cana. It is fiction, of course, but Rice has tried hard to be as faithful to historical knowledge about Jesus’ life and world as possible. She imagines in this novel Jesus facing the temptation as a man in his late 20s to marry like all of his friends and brothers.

Every ministry needs advocates willing to stand on a hill and wave the banner for it or that ministry will suffer the ignominious fate that befalls the lukewarm and anonymous.

(ABP) -- The Great Commission Task Force's recent progress report to the Southern Baptist Convention Executive Committee suggests the final report will at the very least be interesting, if not confusing, reading.

Christian ethics and social networking

A student's Facebook entry chronicles the painful details of a romantic break-up. Or describes an ill-spent weekend partying with friends. Or scathingly blisters someone who holds differing political views. Fast-forward a few years. That same student sits in a job interview -- or maybe at a conference table with a church search committee -- and has to answer uncomfortable questions about those entries. [Read More] ...
