Odds are high that there will be no more posts to this blog.
The Facebook fan page will probably also vanish in the near future.
If you want to keep following me, you can find me on Twitter.
I might continue posting (at some point in the future) on www.DrewCosten.com, so feel free to bookmark that site as well.
Thanks to all my readers over the years. It’s been an interesting ride.
While there are a huge number of online resources for learning the truth about hell, some people still prefer reading actual physical books. I’m personally quite partial to eBooks these days, but there are advantages to having “dead tree editions” of these books on hand. For one thing, a lot of people find them easier on…
I’m going to let you in on a secret. The best source of morality generally can’t be found in a church. Likewise, you won’t learn how to be the best person you can be in the Bible. No, the best way to discover how to be a truly ethical person is in a completely different…
And old friend of mine, Martin Zender, recently spoke at the Sacramento Concordant Conference and says exactly what I’ve been thinking recently. Just a warning for those who aren’t familiar with Martin’s trademark odd-ball humour, the little introduction he gives at the beginning will seem a little over the top, but his brief presentation is worth…
There are lots of ways to save money, the most obvious being, “don’t spend money you don’t have on things you don’t need.” Adam Baker at Man Vs. Debt and Trent Hamm at The Simple Dollar can give you all sorts of ideas to help you begin dealing with financial problems you might have, but I…
“I have three things I’d like to say today. First, while you were sleeping last night, 30,000 kids died of starvation or diseases related to malnutrition. Second, most of you don’t give a shit. What’s worse is that you’re more upset with the fact that I said shit than the fact that 30,000 kids died…
If there’s one thing I don’t understand about American Christians, it’s why so many of them are conservative when it comes to the economic side of politics. It seems that helping the poor and the sick were very important ideas to Jesus. He even made it a requirement for inheriting the Kingdom, according to Matthew 25, so…
Have you ever wanted to come up with a good 1-2 punch from the Bible to help you win arguments about why God hates abortion? Well, now you can. Here are the only passages you need to know to turn your abortion loving friends against killing babies: Exodus 20:13 – “Thou shalt not kill.” Well,…
It began in the fall of ’98. Up until then I’d been a good fundamentalist. Sure, I knew the Bible had to be properly interpreted, and I wasn’t under any crazy illusion that the KJV was a perfect translation, but I still assumed that the Elders in my assembly knew what they were talking about…
Joshua died. I’d never actually met him in person, but a number of my acquaintances knew him personally and took it quite hard at first. It was only a couple days after the funeral when I ran into Johnny, Joshua’s best friend. We decided to catch up that night, and over drinks he and I…
There’s been a lot of controversy over the last week, both in the blogosphere and the twitterverse, about an upcoming book by Rob Bell called Love Wins (that’s an affiliate link by the way, so if you decide to order it using that link then you’re helping support this site, though please keep in mind…
