Sharon Baker, who is a professor of theology at Messiah College, just published a new book, Razing Hell: Rethinking Everything You’ve Been Taught About God’s Wrath and Judgment. I bought it due to Brian McLaren‘s endorsement, thinking it would be a good follow-up to his book, The Last Word and the Word after That, and [...]
Breaking free from a paradigm of thought generally takes quite a bit of time. Prior to 2003 my spiritual belief structure was dramatically different from what it is today. I can personally attest that it isn’t easy to “break free” from cherished schools of thought, especially as they begin to erode one by one. Everybody’s [...]
The very first economics book that I read was The Politically Incorrect Guide to Capitalism by Robert P. Murphy. It was short by the standards of economics book, yet it was enough to pique my interest in economics. I had started the journey because much of my seminary training focused on larger issues of social [...]
After reading several accounts on LRC and other blogs about the belligerent Census workers traipsing up to our door and demanding unconstitutional information from citizens, I was a bit disappointed today when the Census worker came to my door (yes, on a Sunday afternoon!). My wife answered the door while I was on the phone, [...]

I just finished reading this inspiring piece. If I weren’t sitting at work on my lunch break, I’d feel the freedom to shed many tears. My son is almost three, which means in fewer than two years we will have to make a painful decision: put him in a government-run compulsory education prison school, or [...]
In no particular order, here’s what I plan to read in the next few months. I’ve got a few ePub books on my iPad that aren’t no this list. The Justice Project, ed. by Brian McLaren Elise Padilla, and Ashley Bunting Seeber Nullification: How to Resist Federal Tyranny in the 21st Century by Thomas E. [...]
