If you accept Christ as your Lord you must believe he will only command you to do what you can. Claiming him as your example is not the same as obeying him as Lord.

What if we invited people to solutions that worked instead of decreeing truth? The things that are ultimately true would be just as true, but the places where we are a little bit mistaken might not have to drive people away.

Today in schools students are getting so sophisticated at using AI to do their homework that teachers have to use AI tools to detect the cheating. This story explores what would happen if AI watching AI used up all of the available power

Consider with me what makes a story and how it differs from the product of artificial intelligence.

To a world worn out with the isometrics of balancing power, the angelic announcement of “Peace on earth, Goodwill towards men,”was not a meme designed for Christmas cards. It was a profound hypothesis about peace and retaliation in a world that was emerging from tribalism into coherent civilization.

This is meant as an honest question. Any point it happens to make is merely a coincidence.

What if you’ve seen too many picture perfect marriages that seemed to have a dark underbelly well hidden from view. Maybe it makes you more interested in finding a solution to the inescapable questions that affect our relationships instead of trying to find THE answer.

I have observed that people often meet the possibility of failure by balancing their want, and what I call their “unwant” in hopes they will be better equipped to meet failure. But sometimes wanting something more might have made it possible. I think there is a better pair.

Jesus gave his life a Ransom for many. But to whom did he pay the ransom? A different historical perspective on ransom changes the answer I thought I knew.

It seems difficult to me to interpret what the Bible says about tongues unless you treat speaking in tongues and praying in tongues as different experiences governed by different commands of Christ.

Improve your random knowledge with the Bagley Knowledge Bowlers!

My son is seeing if this helps him prepare for Knowledge bowl. They are simple questions intended to randomly broaden a person’s knowledge.

The pathway to having everybody be a winner lies in the ability to invent new games that people want to make lay. Unfortunately we have stopped teaching that skill. Maybe it’s time to bring it back.

Let’s look at what happens when you politely accept an answer that doesn’t quite fit.

How could the servants be the greatest as Jesus declared? Listen as I suggest how in an upside down kingdom it is technically the case.

In the past year I have had so many kind thoughts expressed to me. Thank You. This is not meant as a criticism of anything people have shared but is my personal attempt to make sure my words of comfort are improving all the time.

Has a mindless embracing of the term “unconditional love” paved the way to define God’s love like ours?

Listen to the latest plot floating around in my head. It’s about AI and the implication of thought.

Is a play great because a great playwright wrote it? Or is it great because it connects to the audience? Can a sermon be great if it needs another series of sermons to explain it?

Mary and I invented a way for us to address hard issues. Because of it when she passed there was nothing unsaid between us. There were issues still to be untangled but there was nothing hidden.

I am offering you a tool to get there in your marriage.

Moving on from Episode 305, I offer more of an experiment than an explanation about keeping thoughts of a broken marriage for playing an endless loop in your head. Let me know if it helps.

I posed a similar question on Google. All the top answers sounded just like me in High School, back when I knew everything. But I think they left some key issues unaddressed. Maybe you can explain it to me so it makes sense.

Let me share with you the promise you should have made when you got married and how Mary and I discovered it.

Several years ago my functional conception of the promise I made to my wife changed. Join me as I try to conceptualize and articulate that change.

I have lent my support to several people struggling with a relationship and a brain injury. In this episode of my podcast I offer a hypothesis about approaching the challenges on a different axis.

I’ve wondered for a long time why the church seems to discourage laying up treasure in heaven as a motive for being good. Could it be that a motivation like that would illustrate too starkly how problematic it is to serve Christ as King in a defined organization.

Without the consequence of retribution there is little hope for immature narcissism. Is it possible that Christ laid the foundation for loving retribution rather than espousing cowardly self immolation in the face of childish self centered behavior.

Thanks so much for listening through to the end. I hope this becomes a useful tool for you and for others you share it with.

One of the things which makes navigating a budding relationship difficult is the lack of a language to discuss it. This series offers a single person a specific structure with defined terms based on a simple hypothesis to help them build a relationship and avoid many common pitfalls.

While thinking about a husband’s need to build his wife’s worth, I realized that possibly one of the most meaningful aspects of matriarchal worth has been tragically eliminated.

Sacrifice lets go of something of value to prepare you to receive a greater gift. The greatest thing cannot be sacrificed because there is nothing greater to receive. The greatest divide will be between those who hold on to the second greatest thing and those who sacrifice it in hope. Self sacrifice is the dumbest thing you can do or the greatest. There’s no middle ground.

I accept that the most meaningful thing a human can embark upon is a life of voluntary sacrifice. Has the enemy successfully convinced us that the act of self-immolation is a good in and of itself regardless of our vision?

Every attempt at a utopia seems to run into the problem of fundamental inequality. Christ suggests a self-interested way to serve others that solves the problem for the individual.

Join with me as I unmask possibly the deepest Luciferian attack on call of Christ.

Have we embraced a cult of death because we made an alliance with our fears to oppose death. We must fight death with everything except fear.
