"So our coming of age forces us to a true recognition of our situation vis á vis God. God is teaching us that we must live as men who can get along very well without him. The God who is with us is the God who forsakes us (Mark 15:34). The God who makes us live in this world without using him as a working hypothesis is the God before whom we are ever standing. Before God and with him we live without God."

- Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Letters and Papers from Prison

"The real reason that we can’t have the Ten Commandments in a courthouse: You cannot post 'Thou shalt not steal', 'Thou shalt not commit adultery,' and 'Thou shalt not lie' in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment."

-George Carlin

Come on down and check out our discussion of chapter 9 on the Reason Driven Podcast! We hang out with Carter Pann and do a live interview, covering topics ranging from the story of Noah's ark to the odds of the planet being hit by a life-ending meteor. We also drink tea. We're missing the Bob Price summary this week due to some technical mishaps, but we still have the favorite Simpson's moment and other fun stuff (listen to the last minute and a half!).

Point to Ponder: I smile when I trust myself.

Quote to Remember: But he [Jesus] said to him, "Man, who appointed me a judge or arbitrator over you?" Luke 12:14 NASB

Question to Consider: Why does Rick Warren quote only bible paraphrases that already smuggle in the evangelical interpretation.
