Apparently, Ingrid views herself as God’s chosen instrument to criticize the Church, but when someone does it in a way she doesn’t approve of – watch out.  In this article, Ingrid attacks Frank Schaeffer, the son of renowned author and thinker, Francis Schaeffer for writing an autobiography about growing up in the Evangelical fishbowl.

Now I have to admit that I haven’t read this book yet, so I can’t offer commentary on the actual content yet.  After reading Ingrid’s scathing review, though, I went and looked it up on Amazon, and the vast majority of reviews there (a lot of them are from Christians) are positive.  Most applaud Schaeffer for writing an honest book about himself and his parents.  I guess Ingrid would rather gloss over the messy parts of life though.

I get the feeling that Ingrid genuinely thinks that the 50s and 60s were the golden years for the church and bad things never happened.  If someone come out says that they weren’t all good, then we attack that person.  The Church has and always we be imperfect until Jesus returns, and in the meantime, I don’t see a little healthy introspection as a bad thing.

more lies spewed out from the twisted keyboard of Ken Silva. He posts this quote from and article by Tim Brown. It begins with the preamble to the document seeking peace between Muslims and Christians.

Before we “shake your hand” in responding to your letter, we ask forgiveness of the All-Merciful One and of the Muslim community around the world.” (emphasis theirs)

Wanna guess who the “All-Merciful One” is? It isn’t Jesus. It is Allah, the false God of Islam.

Where does the quote say that Warren in praying to Allah? Oh, it doesn’t. And, since Warren has a really good trach record of praying to the God of the Christian faith, one must naturally assume that he is continuing that practice here. On top of all that, This is not a document excursively signed or distributed by Warren. It was signed by over 300 leaders seeking to make peace. To attribute this solely to him shows theit agenda in all its glory. Therefore, Ken’s opening line that Rick Warren is hoping to become Islam’s megapastor is absurd at best. It is amazing what these guys will do for web hits.

Since it’s Monday morning and we’re all in need of a chuckle, I thought I’d post an old Christmas “favorite” that was passed along to me by a music minister several years ago. Even though it will be painful, listen all the way through, as it just keeps getting ‘better’ and ‘better’…

Humorous Holidays to you!

Update: I’ve added it to the podcast category for our subscribers. You’re welcome. -Tim
