		<description><![CDATA[Depression happens when you acknowledge the difference between your ideal and real life. This is most often something that sneaks up on you rather than something triggered by a particular event. You&#8217;ll be going about your routine, sinking lower and lower, and then one day your spouse or a close friend says something along the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[(Note: This was a rant-turned-ramble-turned-kindafreeverseything I wrote at 4 in the morning. Just to warn you.) &#8212; God Speaks. He does. This is a very inconvenient fact, and we Christians have been doing our level best to work around this for years. In America, we&#8217;ve built up a whole defense system around the idea, feeling [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I struggled a bit with the title of this post, and I&#8217;m still not sure it&#8217;s exactly what I meant to say. I mean, I don&#8217;t really ever think that depression itself is a good thing. Speaking from experience here, it&#8217;s miserable. It&#8217;s free-falling in an endless black hole. But I do think that good [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There&#8217;s been a lot of publicity lately for vocal opponents of God in general and Christianity in particular. With the popularity of Angels and Demons and other fictional books/movies also comes a curiosity about non-fiction anti-God or religion books, such as The God Delusion or God is Not Good. That&#8217;s normal, but for some people [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was just reading the passage in Matthew where Jesus tries yet again to explain to his disciples just what life following Him is really all about. They don&#8217;t get it, which is easy to look at and laugh nowadays. (I&#8217;ve been keeping a mental tally of the number of times Jesus predicted His death [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was reading an unrelated commentary by David Stern the other day and I came across this thought-provoking aside: “pride, and the reverse-sin of embarrassment”. Is embarrassment a sin? I&#8217;ve not yet seen it specifically mentioned in a biblical sin-list &#8212; “Thou shalt not be embarrassed” for example, or “Those evil-doers who are embarrassed”.
