I love the idea of a Christian, Jew and Muslim “Trialogue”. It was put together by Bob Roberts, pastor of Northwood Church in Keller, Texas. It worked like this: Members of the church and the mosque went to the Jewish worship service Friday night at Temple Shalom. Then they all went to the Muslim worship [...]

As a freshman clarinetist in the marching band (I was an aspiring jazz saxophonist and wanted to improve my clarinet chops) I saw everyone of Kurt Warner’s games his senior year at the University of Northern Iowa. It was fun watching him over his NFL career and hearing his story retold and retold (he was [...]

Somehow many in the West are completely unaware that there are Arab Christians. This National Geographic cover story is a sad tale of how they seem to have been forgotten.
Paolo Dall’Oglio, a Syrian Christian monk, makes an important point about why we ought not foget them:
You can’t live alongside people for a thousand years and [...]
