A Salute to The Best Math Teacher Ever

Meet Matthew Weathers. He teaches math at a certain Evangelical Christian university (I am not at liberty to discuss exactly which one, but I will say that he Brings In Only Ladies, Alright?). But Mr. Weathers does more than teach formulas and the like; he portrays mathematics as another means by which we learn about God. Also, having embraced his own dorkiness, he has developed a pretty amusing sense of humor. As a result, he's become something of an internet sensation. In addition, he looks like Mr Bean.

I salute thee, Mr. Weathers!



I was in that class, by the way.

The Gospel: What is the Purpose of Life? Part 2

I was listening to this song today and I noticed just how well it fits with the previous entry in my "Gospel" series. Enjoy!

A Low-Tech Map of the Middle-East

A few weeks ago I did a little presentation for my small group. The goal was to explain the entire historical context of the book of Isaiah in a way that made sense (it's harder than it looks). After talking for an hour, I ended up with a roomfull of blank faces and one really awesome hand-drawn map. In fact, the map was so awesome that I decided to do a full-color MS Paint edition for you, my wonderful audience. It's like if Google was run by six-year-olds. Enjoy.





I fully recognize that this map is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing; therefore, I do not object to anyone printing it out on t-shirts or hanging it out of their dormroom windows. There's no shame in that.

Also, a flesh-eating virus is devouring my eyebrows. Not even kidding.
