Rethinking Jesus

This past Sunday night, in our Evening Service, we watched a video of a message by Ben Young titled Rethinking Jesus. Ben Young is from Houston but he gave this talk at Fellowship Church last month. I was there that weekend, and was so impressed with the message that I bought the DVD along with a book he wrote titled Why Mike's Not a Christian.


In this book, Ben Young gives excellent responses to the excuses some people give for why they are not Christians:
  • It’s true for you, but not for me
  • All Christians are hypocrites
  • Evolution is true
  • The Bible is full of myths
  • All paths lead to God, not just one
Ben Young is an excellent apologist who is able to speak at a level that most of us can understand. I highly recommend this book.

So getting back to Rethinking Jesus, we are going to watch part two of his talk this coming Sunday evening, August 19th. Don't miss it!

Glad you were able to stop by FC! It's awesome that technology allows us, as the church, to take a great message like Ben's and use it in multiple communities. Enjoyed the summary post of his book too.

I agree, technology is a great tool for getting the message out. When I was at Fellowship, I went to the book store after the service and thought, "It sure would be great if they had Ben's message on DVD." And sure enough, there it was! Thanks for leading the way in technology. Our church has been blessed by that.

The Day Our World Changed

November 13, 1989. 11:30 AM I had just finished my lunch in the teacher's workroom and was walking back to my classroom. I was teaching at San Jacinto Elementary in San Angelo, Texas at the time. Up until then, it had been a typical November day. As I walked past the school office, the door swung open, and a fellow teacher stepped out with a look of concern on her face. She spoke directly to me and said, “Your wife’s on the phone, and it sounds serious.” I ran into the office, took the phone, and heard my wife say, “I don’t know what happened, but your brother is on life support in a hospital in Austin.”  Twelve hours later, my father and I were sharing a room in a hotel on I-35 in Austin. My sister-in-law, Sandy, and her six-year-old daughter, Araceli, were in a room across the hall. I hardly slept that night. I would doze off and suddenly wake up to my father crying and calling out my brother’s name.  My brother was dead. Osiel had collapsed that morning while his h...

Try not to laugh too hard

So we finally gave in and bought a Wii. It turns out that it's a lot of fun. Unfortunately, my kids were having fun at my expense. I was trying out the boxing and had no idea Bethany was video taping me. The jerky movement at the end of the clip is Bethany shaking because she was laughing so hard.

Happy Anniversary!

Today is the one-year anniversary of the beginning of this blog. I started blogging on June 9, 2007 with this post . One year later, I'm still enjoying blogging about what's going on at Solid Rock Church, and linking to other interesting blogs and articles, as well as blogging about some of my thoughts and reflections related to Solid Rock and the church world in general. I know I have a few readers out there, so as long as there are three of you reading this blog, I guess I'll keep it going. And remember, comments are always welcomed!
