The Fshbwl

Whenever I’m in Boston I’m reminded of how big a sports town it is. Rightfully so, in the past decade, Boston fans have experienced winning two World Series, three Superbowls, and a Basketball championship. If you’re a teenage sports fan living in Boston, you already experienced a lifetime of victories.

The Sacred Vapor blog is changing. When I started blogging several years ago, the objective was to write about my thoughts as they pertain to theology. But in some ways… the blog started to feel a bit academic and abstract.

Had a great vacation in Wildwood and Cape May NJ. Some more pics can be viewed here.

Someone recently asked me what I thought was the most difficult question in Christianity. I recall hearing this from Greg Koukl and I agree with him that the most difficult question is not an apologetics question, but a theological one.

I’m not a huge fan of The Purpose Driven Life book, I suppose it is a good book. However, the very first line of that book is probably the best theology… the best message to live by… the greatest truth.

The following is something I found from Tim Keller that depicts the differences between religion and the Gospel message. A PDF version is available here.

July was a busy month. I haven’t had much time for photography but look forward to August as I have some vacation time coming. It’s amazing that summer is half way through… is it really August already?

Driving past some railroad tracks, I decided to get out and take a pic.
Rest of my pics here.

Series: problems with Christianity
05: Hell

Example:
Why would a good God send people to eternal punishment? isn’t God cruel by creating people who eventually would spend their eternal destiny in torment?
