Faith, Medicine, and Choice
Byhenry August 31, 2006
MSNBC.com has an interesting article today on medical practices and faith. The general title belies the content which is almost exclusively about clinics that do not offer birth control, sterilizations, in-vitro fertilization, or abortions.

Last Night on the Tuesday Night Energion Hangout: Stewardship
Byhenry July 29, 2015
Pastors and church leaders cringe at the “s” word, because so many members don’t want to hear about it. Sometimes they blame the members for not wanting to dedicate their wallets to the Lord.

Why Not to Tithe
Byhenry August 20, 2014

Common Ground on Genesis
Byhenry October 13, 2010
