El desorden del hombre, el diseño de Dios

1 week ago | protestantedigital.com | Jeff Fountain

Algunos procedían de sociedades balcánicas donde los recuerdos de la guerra aún están frescos. Otros estudiaban en Bucha (Ucrania), donde hace sólo tres años los invasores rusos masacraron a más de 500 civiles y prisioneros de guerra. Estos estudiantes, en su mayoría de Europa Central y Oriental, asistieron esta semana a una conferencia celebrada en un monasterio holandés sobre cómo el Evangelio contribuyó a hacer de Europa, ‘Europa’.
Man’s disorder, God’s design

Some came from Balkan societies where war memories are still fresh. Others were studying in Bucha, Ukraine, where just three years ago over 500 civilians and prisoners of war were butchered by Russian invaders. They were among the mainly eastern and central Europe students attending a conference held in a Dutch monastery this week on how the Gospel helped make Europe ‘Europe’.

4 weeks ago | horrorgeeklife.com | Jeff Fountain

This article has spoilers for Reacher Season 3, Episode 8, “Unfinished Business”The challenges of doing a season finale are different for every show, depending on early renewal, story, and, unfortunately, the show’s cancellation. Reacher is unique in that each season is a self-contained story taken from the book series by Lee Child. There are some crossover characters, but each season takes place in a new place with different characters and storylines.
‘Reacher’ Season 3, Episode 7, “L.A. Story” Recap & Review

1 month ago | horrorgeeklife.com | Jeff Fountain

When you reach the last episode before a show’s season finale, it’s usually more of a connect-the-dots kind of script to get us ready to wrap the season up rather than a lot of big revelations. Reacher Season 3, Episode 7, “L.A. Story” is just that kind of episode, giving us a little more than expected but also some cringe-worthy scenes and moments that just don’t work. However, it still made for an entertaining and chaotic fifty minutes of TV.
‘Reacher’ Season 3, Episode 6, “Smoke on the Water” Recap & Review

1 month ago | horrorgeeklife.com | Jeff Fountain

With an action-fueled TV show, you know what you are getting into. Reacher is no exception, with many big characters (size and characteristics) and depicting all the different ways to injure, maim, or kill. However, “Smoke on the Water” is an excellent example of how a show can take that formula, throw in some great humor and interesting plot points (even if a few need to be taken with a grain of salt), and make a great hour of television.
Las nuevas realidades

En veinticuatro años escribiendo Weekly Word, la columna de esta semana es para mí la más triste. Los acontecimientos de los últimos días y semanas nos obligan a enfrentarnos a nuevas realidades. Los Estados Unidos con los que han crecido todas las generaciones de la posguerra,simbolizados por la Estatua de la Libertad dando la bienvenida a las “masas cansadas, pobres, sin hogar y amontonadas que anhelan respirar libres” del mundo, se han ido.
The new realities

In twenty-four years of writing Weekly Word, this week’s column is for me the saddest. The events of the past days and weeks are forcing us to face new realities. The America with which all post-war generations have grown up – symbolised by the Statue of Liberty welcoming the world’s ‘tired, poor, homeless, huddled masses yearning to breathe free’ – departed.
‘Reacher’ Season 3, Episode 5 “Smackdown” Recap & Review

1 month ago | horrorgeeklife.com | Jeff Fountain

In the new world order of streaming, TV shows are usually about 8-10 episodes long, making each episode much more important in terms of content and impact on the season. This week is episode five of eight in Reacher season three, a significant episode that could help shape the back end of the season. While there is good plot development and a couple of key deaths, including a surprising one, “Smackdown” comes up short, with some overly long scenes and equally flat dialogue.
La historia importa

1 month ago | protestantedigital.com | Jeff Fountain

La historia realmente importa. La historia nos da perspectiva y comprensión acerca de dónde venimos, quiénes somos y hacia dónde vamos. La historia da sabiduría a los jóvenes. La Biblia se toma la historia muy en serio, a diferencia de todas las demás escrituras sagradas. De hecho, la Biblia es la fuente de nuestra concepción occidental del tiempo lineal. Las dimensiones del pasado, el presente y el futuro no son tan evidentes como creemos.
History matters

1 month ago | evangelicalfocus.com | Jeff Fountain

History really does matter. History gives us perspective and understanding on where we have come from, who we are and where we are going. History puts wise heads on young shoulders. The Bible takes history very seriously – unlike all other sacred writings. In fact, the Bible is the source of our western understanding of linear time. The dimensions of past, present and future are not as self-evident as we may think.
