In light of solid scriptural evidence we hope to refute Jaros’ position through the examples of Jesus and Joseph. Among the issues are false views on suffering and the sovereignty of God.

Phinehas: reaching the unreachable through metal (VIDEO)
Today's metal scene is a very dark place. Social networking sites are littered with bands that revel in their own depression, emptiness and isolation. Other bands only emulate their peers by making a bunch of noise with zero lyrical or musical substance to speak of, hoping that the kids in the crowd will hear something they like in their "music." But Biola's own Phinehas have a different mentality when it comes to playing metal, complete with a unique and talented sound.

Going green
“You. Are a pioneer in using recycled cups.”
That’s what the green words on my cup tell me, anyway, as I sip a venti organic chai tea with steamed soy milk and look at the green Starbucks logo. The streetlight turns green and I zip along Colima Avenue in Whittier. I am a regular eco-friendly, environmentally-responsible human being. Even my carbon emissions from Vicky’s borrowed car help the planet.
