The B.I.B.L.E.

1. God is real (whether we acknowledge Him or not).
2. He has revealed Himself.

This is why we call the most printed, most read and most ignored book in history - "God's Word." In its pages we find much more than stunningly accurate ancient history; much more than deeply moving poetry; much more than a moral code or the foundations of Western jurisprudence... we find our Creator, Provider, Lawgiver, Judge, King, Savior and Friend - Jesus.

Despite the protests of The Jesus Seminar, Islam and The Later Day Saints, we have become convinced that the the 66 books of the Old and New Testements have been accurately translated and transmited down through the generations. Far from wishful thinking, mindless clinging or fear of a meaningless cosmos, ours is a rigorous conviction based upon compelling evidence and experience.

We agree with Marty Luther, an old law student turned monk, that:

"Every institution in which men are not increasingly occupied with the Word of God must become corrupt."

To those who would pigeon-hole us as 'narrow minded, right-wing, homophobic, Bible thumpers', we offer this quote:

"Biblical balance is more practical than pragmatism; more thoughtful than rationalism; more experienced than existentialism and more romantic than sentimentalism. It is more stable than conservatism and more progressive than liberalism."
