Humble O Radio is a conversation about Christianity and Culture and the Sub-Culture of Christianity and how it all mixes together. Each week we’ll have interesting guests talking about topics as varied as the latest book, movie and music release to Theology. At some point we may talk about the theology of various books, music and movies, who knows?!? A few things you can count on for sure.

I left my small-town home because I was sick of the stupid social rules that develop in a compressed community environment. Oh, la, and then I became a Christian. My first church did not like me. I said exactly what I thought, and if something didn’t line up with the Bible, I wanted to know why they’d do that, when they’re supposed to be Christians and know this stuff.

Recently, I watched a documentary on plural marriage. It presented a very balanced, but secular view on the topic. Both the pros and cons were explored. Plural wives bubbled as they told how wonderful life was to have other women to share in the homemaker role. They described the other wives as ‘sisters.’ Each sister-wife had their specific role to make this co-op family work, as well as time for themselves and their collective husband.

I have three wonderful grandchildren, Aidan, age 9…Gannon, age 7…and Quinn, age 4. They live eighty miles from our home, in Alabama. The distance is far enough so that, to them, it is like taking a vacation to come to our house. All three children are gifted intellectually beyond their years, and in other areas, as well. To them, the world is one huge science lab, and they are constantly learning about things such as insects, reptiles, birds, geology, and botany. Their parents, my daughter and son-in-law, see to it that the children have many books in their home library, and reading is a daily delight at their house. Read the rest of this entry →

While visiting a church recently, a severely obese pastor delivered a sermon. I had a tough time listening to the sermon about the failure of “Christians to witness.” I fell into the sin of judging him based on his obesity. As I glanced around the congregation, the majority of the people were overweight. I’m only human and couldn’t help but wonder why there wasn’t a message being taught about taking care of the bodies God has given us.
Overeating seems to be one of the sins which most pastors, Christians, reverends, and priests overlook. If “gluttony is a sin,” why is “Christian America” one of the “fattest nations“? It’s a serious issue which is seldom discussed despite a growing number of “christian” based weight loss programs. Read the rest of this entry →

Some time ago I wrote a piece entitled Who Says What’s Christian Music? in which I briefly examined the sad fact that the actual content of music has little to nothing to do with what is actually classified as “Christian” and “secular” music. Artists like Sufjan Stevens openly express their faith with artistic excellence but won’t be purchased in your local Christian bookstore because they dont play the marketing game. Meanwhile, Phillips, Craig and Dean, who openly deny the orthodox view of the Trinity are in every “Christian” bookstore because they do play the marketing game. Marketing rather than content determines what you can buy and where you can buy it. Read the rest of this entry →
