Arnobius of Sicca (died c. 330) was an Early Christian apologist, during the reign of Diocletian (284-305). According to Jerome's Chronicle, Arnobius, before his conversion, was a distinguished Numidian rhetorician at Sicca Veneria (El Kef, Tunisia), a major Christian center in Proconsular Africa, and owed his conversion to a premonitory dream. Arnobius writes dismissively of dreams in his surviving book, so perhaps Jerome was projecting his own respect for the content of dreams. According to Jerome, to overcome the doubts of the local bishop as to the earnestness of his Christian belief he...

Are you eager to ask the questions you've been told not to ask? Are you no longer satisfied with beliefs based on faith alone? Are you bold enough even to ask, "Is God real?" Most importantly, "are you willing to follow where the questions lead?" What is the book about? In "Rethinking God, the Cosmos, and Other Little Things," Gary Bond invites the reader to join him on his journey from belief to skepticism. This journey ultimately led to Bond's renouncing Christianity and his embracing a life of apostasy as a "rethinker." When Bond began rethinking the foundational beliefs upon which his...

"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day." We hear it all the time. Or, if there's one meal to eat, it's breakfast. Its benefits are vital to a healthy living; it helps boost your metabolism, and keeps your hunger at bay until lunchtime, letting you stay away from any unhealthy snacks. Unfortunately, despite how important a healthy breakfast is, very few of us tend to sit down and eat it (or worse, grab an unhealthy cream filled bagel or cereal bar). The main reason so many of us avoid eating breakfast (or worse, settling for unhealthy fast food) is because we simply don't have the...

Frankly, we never have much time in most days. With the usual 9-5 job, or a full family (or even both), and the hectic day to day life that interferes with our schedules, there's hardly ever any time to actually sit down and have dinner, much less actually work to create an appetizing meal.
