As this blog's title–taken from Switchfoot's hit "Dare You To Move"–suggests, we're living in the fallout of man's rebellion against God, a rebellion that is both ethical and intellectual. When man fell, his whole being–including his thinking–became warped by sin.
As a result of our fall, we break the rules of logic. To put it another way, illogical thinking is a sin. And part of Christ's work of redemption and restoration is His call to be "transformed by the renewing of your mind." Scripture places a ton of emphasis on our mind, our thinking, our intellect. This is out of step with secular trends and even some perspectives in the church. But if we love God with "all [our] mind," the intellectual transformation Paul calls for is only our reasonable service.
My purpose is to dare you–and myself–to think logically and critically, and to view all that happens around us with a truly Christian perspective.
So welcome aboard.
