That doesn’t happen here does it? Isn’t that mostly overseas? Recently I heard those questions as I was telling someone about my passion for helping victims of human trafficking. As I explained my desire to get more involved, they couldn’t believe I would be able to do anything without picking up and moving far away. [...]
about the muir house characters [an interview with @marydemuth]
![about the muir house characters [an interview with @marydemuth]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/willa-muir-150x150.jpg)
One of the most crucial parts of any novel is how the characters develop. In part two of my interview with Mary DeMuth, I ask about how the characters for The Muir House came together. What I found interesting about Mary’s response was how attached she gets to the characters in her stories. It’s easy [...]
igniting your passion for God [an interview with @mafeinberg]
![igniting your passion for God [an interview with @mafeinberg]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/group-prayer-100x100.jpg)
Here’s that word again. Community. We’ve recently talked about interpreting the Bible in community, and now we’re talking about praying in community. There seems to be something about doing things with other people that increases it’s impact. Can we pray and talk to God by ourselves? Absolutely! Have you prayed with a group of friends [...]

![why we need to hear God's voice [an interview with @mafeinberg]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/walking-in-100x100.jpg)
What do you do when you hear God’s voice telling you to do something? Do you shrug it off? Do you pray more to ask for clarification? Or are you quick to respond and follow His guidance? In this part of the interview, Margaret Feinberg deals with the idea of what it means for us [...]

![on listening to God's voice [an interview with @mafeinberg]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/listening-100x100.jpg)
There’s so much noise in the world today that it can be difficult to remember what silence sounds like. And with all of this noise, it can also be difficult to clearly hear God’s voice. Here’s the best example that I can think of to illustrate what I think ‘the noise’ looks like… I’m on [...]
how God speaks to people [an interview with @mafeinberg]
![how God speaks to people [an interview with @mafeinberg]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/genesis-100x100.jpg)
Have you ever heard the voice of God? You know, like the Charlton Heston or James Earl Jones audible voice giving you the clear direction that you’re looking for? I don’t think that I have, but I’m pretty sure that God has communicated with me in other ways. Mostly through reading the Bible, sometimes through [...]

![why 'hungry for God'? [an interview with @mafeinberg]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/lay-down-for-the-Lord-100x100.jpg)
I recently had the pleasure of catching up with Author/Speaker Margaret Feinberg about her new book, Hungry for God: Hearing god’s voice in the ordinary and the everyday. She’s been one of my favorite authors for a long time. And if you’re familiar with her writing, then you probably understand why. The book deals with questions like, “how [...]

Have you ever read a book that just rocked you to your core? I have. I recently finished a great new book called Following Jesus Through the Eye of the Needle: Living Fully, Loving Dangerously by Kent Annan (IVP). Loved it! After writing my review of the book, I have to say that I was [...]

![wholly jesus [an interview with mark foreman]](http://bibledude.net/wp-content/uploads/wholly-jesus-100x100.jpg)
Some guys just seem to get it. But let me back up a little bit first… When studying Bible history it doesn’t (or shouldn’t) take long to pick up on some cultural differences between the ancient Eastern culture of the Hebrews and the modern Western culture that we now live in. Yet so many people [...]

The title of Karen Spears Zacharias‘ latest book is enough to get your attention right away… Will Jesus Buy Me a Double-Wide? (‘Cause I need more room for my plasma TV). Special bibledude.net contributor Kelly Wilson wrote an awesome review on the book, and I had the opportunity to talk to Karen on Skype about [...]

Every day extreme poverty drives innocent children into drastic situations. As a result many are unwillingly sold into slavery to do the unthinkable. One of the people who stands up for those children is Tom Davis, president of Children’s HopeChest. I recently had the opportunity to catch up with Tom to talk about some of the [...]

There are lots of opinions on how things like social networking and the virtual world are changing the church. It doesn’t take long to to see how people are using online resources to search for meaning and connection. With this shift towards using technology, there are lots of ideas about how it all affects our theology. [...]
