The more I hear about the new Pokemon Go app, the more it makes me think. I've seen the game act as a distraction and also as a ministry tool. My question: do we have to worry about balance? For those living outside of the Millennial/Gen Z craze, Pokemon Go is a new...
You Can’t Fight Hate with Hate; Respond With Love
The world is in bad shape. It seems like every time I turn on the TV or read a news article online, I’m faced with another tragedy or senseless act. Even the local crime rate seems to have escalated. As I read each story and witness the pain, I’m left to respond in...
