…how we can change course.” If a person is not a machine but rather a “heart-soul-mind-strength complex designed for love,”2 we should measure cultural artifacts and institutions by the question, “does this help us live as the whole persons we were meant to be?” In some ways this book is the theory behind Crouch’s popular and practical book The Tech-Wise Family. But it also moves forward in some important ways. Most significantly, it names “the Big…

Top 5: Movies For Your Family Movie Night

…humming its main theme song for weeks. Seven Chances (1925) For your family-movie night, I couldn’t recommend enough that you try the great comedic silent films. So many of them are still watchable, touching, and relevant—universal in their appeal. Near the top of the greats of the silent era is Buster Keaton. His Seven Chances is a personal favorite, equally ridiculous and inspiring. Buster plays a rich heir who is set to inherit millions, only t…

Parables are curious because of the ways that they repeat, envelop our own world, and explode it from the inside out. Like mustard seeds, they take root in our imagination, and begin to fl…

A Reformed Approach to the Interactions of Science and Religion (cont’d)

…ds are beyond the horizon of human knowing; that is why all origin stories — even scientific ones — must take on the language of myth. Faith is seeing the truth of the myth and not trying to force it into the category of fact. Skepticism rejects that truth because it is not a matter of fact, so rather than focus on grounding faith in fact to fight skepticism, why not put faith beyond its reach — beyond facts? If it is important for us to believ…

Neuroscientists have determined that individuals who have been — and remain — mentally and physically active appear to have a reduced risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease (perhaps as much as 46% lower). Likewise, they seem better able to compensate for other types of age-associated brain deterioration — such as those caused by strokes. Neuroscientists call this the “cognitive reserve hypothesis.” I like to think of it as God’s gracious provisi…

It also functions to oversee those things that work across institutions (like transportation systems, for example, which serve businesses, schools, and recreational purposes, to name a few). In such a view, the state can intervene in economic issues only when businesses (the…

The story hints at a heart-of-darkness motif, the journey of the priests from the outer edges to the interior: from the edge of Japan to its black center in Nagasaki.

Your reminder to “behold” is a worthwhile one–even more so when realizing the etymology of “be-” + “hold.” Based on a quick scan of the OED online: “hold” has the sense not primarily of looking but rather of keeping watch over, like a shepherd or as in the marriage vow “to have and to hold”, and the prefix “be-” intensifies, with the sense of thoroughly and soundly, almost to excess. This meaning fits very well with t…
