Want a Picture with Corky?

You send me a ten dollar Amazon Kindle gift card and I will create for you the following:

THREE photomanipulations of photos you email me. Corky can be at your wedding (see photo below), dinner party or backyard barbecue.   

-----Step 1   Send the gift card via email by going to Amazon and creating a gift for Eddie Eddings. My gmail address is: calvinist12345@gmail.com

-----Step 2   Send me your photos. I will Photoshop Corky Velveeta in so it looks absolutely real. If you request it, I could send you and Corky back into the past. (Only need ONE photo of your face and I will choose the time period and old photo.) These will make great screen savers, wallpaper or novelty gifts. I will send these back within a day or two at a resolution of 72 dpi. If you permit, I will post one or two on my blog as part of Corky's travel log.

This will help me not to get reader's block and provide more ideas for Calvinistic Cartoons.

FREE small BOOK with BIG message!

"If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins" (1 Cor. 15:17).
 
The resurrection. As far as doctrines go, it's a game changer. Many accept the resurrection without giving it much thought. But isn't something so important worthy of our wrestling with it? What if we approached the issue of the resurrection in an unbiased manner and assessed it as a cold case detective would evaluate a crime scene? Author J. Warner Wallace is a cold-case detective. He also used to be an atheist. Follow along in this brief presentation of his approach in applying his detective's expertise to the accounts of the resurrection. Wallace believes the case is nothing but compelling: Jesus is alive!
--
J. Warner Wallace is a cold case homicide detective, a missions leader, and a church planter. As a result of his work on cold cases, Wallace has been featured on numerous television programs including Dateline, FOX News, and Court TV. Wallace's visual presentations in the courtroom have revolutionized how capital offense trials are presented in Los Angeles County and across the country. A vocal atheist for many years, Wallace is now an apologist for Christianity and the founder of the ColdCaseChristianity.com Blog, Podcast, and Website. He has a master's degree in theological studies. He and his wife have four children and live in southern California.

A shout out to Mr. Noah Lott for sending us this old Doc Savage paperback. I remember reading this when I was a teenager. Never realized at the time that Corky was featured in the James Bama painting. Live and learn.

FREE Book! Take a Look!

The problems men face today are not new; they have been around since the time of the Bible. Insensitivity, lust, individualism, absence, manipulation, unresolved anger--even a cursory study of Bible characters will expose all of these moral and emotional battles. Jeffrey E. Miller challenges men to acknowledge their common struggles and weaknesses to help them become better men.
 

Developed from his featured Bible teaching series on Bible.org, Occupational Hazards of Being a Man focuses on a different Old Testament personality with a unique problem in every chapter. Miller tackles these tough and pervasive issues to help men realize that these hazards are not unique to them, but that they are issues that all men face--and can overcome. This honest and freeing book is perfect for men's small groups, pastors, counselors, and individuals.

R.C. Sproul used to sing this song...

...before preaching through Ephesian 1 or Romans 8.

Quick! A caption before things get out of hand!

Sing to the Lord

I have always found it quite remarkable that smack dab in the middle of the Bible God placed a songbook. What does that tell you?

Astonished? It's FREE! (for now)

In Astonished, Pastor Mike Erre calls Christians away from simplistic formulas to honest and rugged faith in the mysterious and unpredictable God.
 
God is more about deepening the mystery of faith, not removing it. Jesus should get bigger the longer we walk with him. Life and faith should grow to be more profound and wondrous, not less.
 
In Astonished, you will see how we are far more comfortable with tips, steps and techniques for living, than we are with ruthlessly trusting the mysterious God of the Bible. God asks us to follow him into tension, frustration, and difficulty because he wants our trust, not just our intellectual agreement. He calls us to seek Him even as we live in awe of all that is yet to be known about Him.
 
Astonished is an invitation to question in a culture that wants answers, to wonder in a world with little mystery left, and to believe in what is unseen and find it beautiful.

We live in an era of deodorant Christianity. Instead of trying to help each other fix our problems, we come up with creative ways to cover up the stench. Using humorous stories from the author's life and anecdotes from his own walk with Christ, "Deodorant Christianity" discusses common Christian practices and behaviors that may not be as Biblical as we make them out to be.
