The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus

March 2, 2017 By Jim Schultz 3 Comments

I often wonder if people who say there is no evidence for Christian beliefs have ever considered the evidence for Jesus’s resurrection. If you have thought that or know someone else who has, but haven’t considered such evidence, then this blog is an opportunity to do so. The only facts we’ll state here are those… Read More »

The Embodiment of the King

December 22, 2016 By Jim Schultz 3 Comments

A General enters the briefing room to hear that someone has breached the cyber security network. The tech guy asks the General for his password to fix it and the General hesitates. “My password?” The tech guy asks again and the General reluctantly replies by spelling it out: “I-h-a-t-e-m-y-j-o-b-1.” The tech guy repeats it back:… Read More »

Narnia and the Bible’s Grand Narrative

November 7, 2016 By Jim Schultz 1 Comment

Many people have enjoyed C. S. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia in book and movie forms. But I wonder if we’ve gotten so lost within each tale that we lose sight of the overarching story told in the seven books as a whole, the grand narrative of Narnia and its world. When I was a kid,… Read More »

Give Me a Piece Of Your Mind

October 11, 2016 By Jim Schultz 2 Comments

One time when Kari and I were newly married, we were living in what we referred to as our Little House on the Prairie in North Dakota, a few miles north of our town on an old dirt road. We got into an argument about something– I don’t remember what. But I do remember how… Read More »

Answering Tyranny

June 30, 2016 By Jim Schultz Leave a Comment

I have never set foot in New York City, but I did get to fly low over it once. In those few minutes I tried to take in the sights of Manhattan, Long Island, the Hudson River, and the bridges and waterways around the city. But by far my favorite sight was the Statue of… Read More »

We Need to Retake Our Religious Freedom

June 8, 2016 By Jim Schultz Leave a Comment

The Land of the Free is now ironically losing a precious freedom. A seven year old boy in southern California was twice reprimanded in front of his class for showing his classmates the encouraging notes with Bible verses his mother tucked into his lunch. He did this at lunch time, not during class. But the… Read More »

Image and Election 2016: A Non-Partisan Guide to Using the Image of God to Evaluate Political Candidates

March 5, 2016 By Jim Schultz 3 Comments

I have written a couple of blogs recently about what the image of God means and the need to add the virtues of Jesus to our moral character in order to grow more in the image of God. But now I want to focus on another application of the image concept. Americans are right now… Read More »

Virtues By Which To Image God

February 17, 2016 By Jim Schultz Leave a Comment

The idea of imitating someone else can have positive or negative connotations. The actor Will Sasso imitated Curly’s sounds and mannerisms superbly in The Three Stooges movie. On the negative side, we say a young person is a wannabe or follower if he tries too hard to fit in. He is not being himself. Maybe those… Read More »

Christian Humanism

December 16, 2015 By Jim Schultz 1 Comment

Two years ago, a sign was put up in Times Square: “Who needs Christ during Christmas? Nobody.” This sentiment was brought to you by atheists.org. It appears they don’t think Christ is needed for peace and good will to humanity. Is Christ a problem-child or problem-solver? The secular humanists’ answer has long been this: “These… Read More »

What It Means to be Made in God’s Image

October 30, 2015 By Jim Schultz Leave a Comment

How valuable are you to God? How much should you esteem yourself? How about other people? How must we treat other people? What is the purpose of human life? These are huge questions and everyone must assume one set of answers or another in order to put one foot in front of the other and… Read More »
