One of my favorite things about Marvel’s super heroes is that they are flawed characters. Other than Captain America, most of the heroes in Marvel’s universe have some sort of character flaw. The Marvel Cinematic Universe hasn’t even touched on Tony Stark’s alcoholism, but he still has plenty of flaws. In the original Iron Man

Yesterday the BBC released the first official picture of the Twelfth Doctor in his personal costume. I like the costume even if it looks little bit like the Eleventh Doctor’s. I like the blue and I really like the crazy eyes. If Matt Smith was crazy with his hands I think Capaldi is going to
I love everything about Marvel’s Cinematic Universe. I grew up reading Marvel comics and still do to this day. I can’t believe I live in a time when some of the most successful and well-made Hollywood movies are super hero movies. Phase One of Marvel’s Cinematic Universe included Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man
Last night Alycia and I finished our last Financial Peace University class. It has been a great journey learning how we can apply God’s financial principles together.

The last five years have been nerdvana for those of
Iron Man 3 comes out today and I won’t be able to see it until Sunday. I feel like this is a perfect time to discuss spoiler etiquette. According to Wikipedia: A spoiler is an element of a disseminated summary or description of any piece of fiction that reveals any plot elements, which threaten to
I love movies and I really love nerdy movies, which means the summer is my favorite time of year. During the summer nerd culture leaves its mother’s basement and heads for the mainstream. The summer movie season is tent poled by nerdy fare and here’s a preview of those nerdy movies coming out in May
Earlier this week I was in East Hollywood with our youth group. Our students spent some of their spring break serving at a church that meets the needs of the homeless and less fortunate. It was awesome to see 20 students serving and modeling Jesus’ character and actions. On service trips like the one we
Yesterday was America’s holiest day. The Super Bowl. I am a self-professed nerd; I’ve given myself the title “The Christian Nerd”. I have tons of nerd cred, especially when it comes to Star Wars and Star Trek. I always feel like my nerd cred can be doubted, though, because I love sports so much. To
