"We are travellers…not yet in our native land" – St. Augustine
Trent Horn has recently been in Australia debating Raphael Lataster, a secular teacher of religion and someone who holds that Christ never existed. For those of you in the States who didn’t stay up until 3am to watch the debate (lightweights!), here’s a recording of the debate:
I posted a video of this song several years ago, but it recently came to my attention that the song now has an official music video. So cringeworthy…so good.
Bart Erhman is one of the most popular Scripture critics I hear quoted these days. In this video series below, Brant Pitre pits him against Anglican apologist, CS Lewis:
So, as you may have noticed, posts have once again started to appear here at Restless Pilgrim. After several grueling months, my project at work is now basically done.
I was meant to be on vacation this week, but I’ve been dragged back to my project, albeit half-time. As a result, the posts here thus far have been of the simple, short variety.
However, the good news is that I’m slowly chipping away at some longer, more substantial posts (to be tagged as featured). I’m hoping that some of these articles will be ready to post sometime next week.
There’s a lot of changes coming, both in my “real” life and also here on this blog. I’m really looking forward to sharing with you what’s there on the horizon…
Every Christian should find for himself the imperative and incentive to become holy.
If you live without struggle and without hope of becoming holy, then you are Christians only in name and not in essence. But without holiness, no one shall see the Lord, that is to say they will not attain eternal blessedness.
It is a trustworthy saying that Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners (1 Timothy 1:15). But we deceive ourselves if we think that we are saved while remaining sinners. Christ saves those sinners by giving them the means to become saints.

Here is “Have Everything” by David Dunn. The video is pretty sweet…
First time I met you, I was on my knees
Praying, “Lord, if you’re out there, can you speak to me?”
Cuz I was in a desperate place,
My life looked like a hurricane
The moment I felt Your grace
You can have me, You can have everything, Oh I am Yours
Not holding on, I’ll do anything, So I promise, Lord,
It’s a new day, it’s a new dawn
I found a place where I’m home
Nothing I want more than what you’ve given me
Hey, so you can have everything x3
You are like the sunshine in the dead of night
You’re the only one standing when my world ignites
So why would I hold anything back,
cuz You keep my world intact?
It’s true, Oh, God, it’s true, so I’ll say
Every day
I’m gonna wake up, Gonna wake up
Wake up and say
You can have me, have everything
