Musings from a mystical, eco-Anabaptist exploring the intersections of Christian discipleship, creation connection, masculine spirituality, liminality, and communal ritual space for transformation.

Guess this makes all of us cowards and traitors!
The Democrats now have the majority in the Senate, House and Governors! This is cause for a celebration! (Unless you’re a Republican) Even though I align myself more with the Green Party, until they are a viable 3rd party I am enthused to see the Democrats finally get the opportunity to put this country back on the right track. It is still amazing considering what happened on the ‘04 election.

That quote by and large has been understood culturally, it has not been viewed as a biological one.
Until now.
A recent study just came out that illustrates that testosterone levels in men are lower than they were 20 years ago. I believe that American culture has continued to emasculate men in such a way that maybe our bodies are starting to believe it. That is what I am fighting as I continue to ask the questions:
What is a man?
Am I a man?
Do I have what it takes?
"We know that our society produces a plentiful supply of boys but seem to
produce fewer and fewer men."

Movie trailer for Thr3e
I read this book by Ted Dekker and it was one of the best books I've read in years. Now the movie is set to be released January 5th. If the movie is as good as the book then it's a must see!
