Worship: Few Words, Boy Friends, and Girl Friends
David Ker is complaining about modern worship songs (since the 90s), and Peter Kirk has partially taken him to task about it, wondering about the air down in Mozambique and whether it causes David to rant.

One class member was surprised—not shocked, annoyed, or disturbed, but just surprised—that…

That doesn’t mean I disagree with everything, but rather that I was attracted to the site and continue to read primarily because of my disagreement. I read a number of news sources and some individual blogs on…
