The last week of school was one of intrigue and suspense. In the middle of marking final exams my stapler went missing, a fact that was made all the more frustrating by the fact that I had used it not twenty minutes beforehand. I tore my office apart several times over but to [...]

This will be the last hockey-related post for the 2006-2007. My sincere thanks to the Detroit Red Wings for ending the most pitiful and embarrassing display of hockey by any Flame team since the early 1990s. I didn’t think it was possible but they managed to play as badly at home as they [...]

I’ve been taking a bit of heat for my harsh assessment of the first two games of the Calgary/Detroit series so I thought I’d clarify my thoughts now that the Flames appear to have dragged themselves back into this series.

Another week, another cover story highlighting the ongoing atheistic revival. It appears that each of these stories raises the bar, beginning with musings on the conflict between God and Science and religion’s role in opposing progress to the latest hypothesis (floated in Macleans magazine) that the idea of God is a poison that has [...]

“The acid test for any theology is this: Is the God presented one that can be loved heart, mind, soul and strength? If the thoughtful answer is; ‘Not really,’ then we need to look elsewhere or deeper.”
I’m nearing the end of this year’s introductory course where we go through many of the basics of [...]

Seeing the events of Holy Week through the eyes of a three year old is a truly delightful experience. I got to hear the following breathless summary after church yesterday morning:
“Daddy, Daddy, Jesus came alive!! The disciples killed him, but Jesus came alive!! First he had supper, then he died on the [...]
