Dear Gen Z Christian

Dear Gen Z Christ-follower, It has been just over a week since a bullet exploded across a college campus in Utah and shook the world. You witnessed the reality of murder played out before your very eyes. You saw an act of pure, unadulterated evil. But evil didn’t stop there.…

Daniel Hochhalter liked Jeremy Cox's review of Only the Dead (Terminal List #6):
Only the Dead by Jack Carr
"The Jack Carr series has found the winning recipe. It's fun, its getting predictable, but I still fly through these books."

Daniel Hochhalter liked Jeremy Cox's review of Red Sky Mourning (Terminal List #7):
Red Sky Mourning by Jack Carr
"This should be the end of the series. Anything else would erode the character, I think. But we will see. It does appear that Jack Carr is planning a prequel series about Tom Reese, our protaganists father. I'm definitely in for that one."

“Remember, we are all part of a great story that is really about God, not us. He is the number one character (read: winner), and we are all secondary (read: losers).”

“We are all losers, fallen and broken and in need of a Savior. And it is with losers that Jesus chose to identify because they (we) make up humanity’s largest demographic: one hundred percent.”

Daniel’s Quotes

“[Jesus] said “Follow me” and ended up with a lot of losers. And these losers ended up, through no virtue or talent of their own, becoming saints. Jesus wasn’t after the best but the worst.”
― Eugene Peterson, The Jesus Way: A conversation in following Jesus

“The Church is the place where the incompetent, the unfinished, and even the unhealthy are welcome. I believe Jesus agrees.”

“God’s love is his nature and he is so full of mercy that he has not chosen whom he loves based on their personal achievements or perceived worth. His love is given to those who are not worthy. He is not seeking to unite himself only to those who meet certain qualifications of looks, personality, and aptitude, but instead he has chosen a bride who was once an orphaned whore.”
― Rick McKinley, A Kingdom Called Desire: Confronted by the Love of a Risen King

“A "no" from God really is a "no." It is not a "yes" cached in a "wait" or something like that. In fact...a "no" is quite a useful answer in the growth process if we receive it honestly.”
