**You can find the referenced sermon at http://www.imagodeicommunity.com/sunday/sermon-archive/ .** In this second sermon, Rick explores the economy of sex. The basic argument is that the price of sex is lower than it’s ever been before. I know, it’s odd for a pastor to talk about sex in economic terms, but you have to understand whereContinue reading “Love. Sex. God. Pt2”

I Know You
The book of Jeremiah has never been one of my favorites. I like the biographical information on Jeremiah, which is interspersed throughout; but I don’t necessarily get a kick out of reading the whole book. That said, at the beginning of the book, there’s a little phrase from the Lord, which I’m sure many ofContinue reading “I Know You”

He spoke and the world came into existence. Again, I don’t disagree. I just think this is an incomplete picture, because if God is Creator, GodContinue reading “God as Artist”
Scattering Seeds
One time Jesus told a story about a farmer. The farmer went out and scattered seeds. Jesus made it clear that we who follow Him are supposed to play the farmer. Most of the time, I don’t play the farmer. I have the opportunity, but I keep my mouth shut. Sometimes, I do actually playContinue reading “Scattering Seeds”
