We have a new logo courtesy of Steve Feld. Thanks so much for the awesome design! This week a spoken word poet named Jefferson Bethke went viral with his video: Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus. The guys over at Resurgence posted this about the video: “We don’t post poetry very often, but we do when it’s pretty good. Check out this poem on how the gospel of Jesus is the good news that breaks...
Denver stations want to know: did you find the Saturday Night Live (SNL) sketch about Jesus appearing in the Denver Broncos locker room after a big win in Chicago, funny or sacrilegious? If you aren’t a fan of SNL or haven’t seen the sketch it can be viewed at any number of websites including the Denver Post, ESPN, Westword, USA Today, etc. If you don’t want to go on-line to see it because you already know the tone...

No. Do they all have the same level of experience, or have they won identical rewards in each of their respective leagues (i.e. each is an MVP’er, responsible for producing the highest offensive tallies for their sport in a single year, etc)? Not...
