Trying to resolve the discordant perspectives of Calvinistic determination and free will.
Show’n-off our new grandson
Please allow me to post a picture of our new grandson Jedidiah John Martin – born 2.1.09. All the usual suspects (mother, father, & child) are doing just fine. The new grandma (my wife) can’t wait until we travel to Nashville to meet the little tyke. The new grandpa (me) is dealing with issues of denial – I can’t believe that I’m now a grandfather! And more than that, I can’t believe that I’m married to a grandmother!!!
Grandpa, is there any difference between Calvinism & Arminianism?
Although having grown up in Tucson, AZ, I’m an upper Midwestern guy at heart having spent most of my adult life in Minnesota. I recently entered the "Buick stage" of life and have migrated to Florida. This blog is an attempt to explain the deconstruction of my Christian faith and better understand what I perceive as the discordant aspects of Christianity. Things which make life more enjoyable include rough-housing with the grandkids, strong black coffee, charcoal grilling, cutting wood on a table saw, playing chess, a good orthopedic surgeon and an occasional IPA. Please feel free to poke around and comment as you wish. I welcome cordial discussion and the insights of others with a different perspective and understanding.
