		<title>Commercialism and Faith Pt 1: The Affect of Commercials on the Human Brain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is the first post in a series called Commercialism and Faith, in which I will explore the relationship between the language of our culture (commercialism) and how we view and relate to God.
This series is not a knock against commercialism as much as it is an exploration of the effects of the cultural language on how we [...]]]></description>

		<title>Academy Award Picks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was a pretty good year for movies considering there is no money in Hollywood. I think The Hurt Locker was the best movie of the year, followed by An Education. Jeff Bridges did a great job in Crazy Heart (and the music by T-Bone Burnett and Ryan Bingham was terrific) but overall I felt [...]]]></description>

		<title>Update on 90-Second Short Film Contest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It seems people are having a hard time uploading their movies to the contest site. I removed some duplicates, and now only one film is working. If your film is not working, please remove it and try again. And forgive me for housing the contest on a site that doesn&#8217;t seem to be doing what [...]]]></description>

		<title>Every Good Story Must Endure Conflict</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I started reading the New Testament again. My friend Ron Frost recommends reading the Bible all the way through, then reading it again, and then again, until you die. So I am taking his advice. And I&#8217;m enjoying it. I didn&#8217;t start in Genesis this time, I started in Matthew, and so read the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Slave to Public Opinion. False Redemption and a Jury of Peers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Not long ago I was having a conversation with a friend who happened to be a Christian. My friend is a writer, and a very smart man. During the conversation, I noticed he kept explaining why he was right. I wanted to test him a bit, I suppose, so I asked him a hard question, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tips on Writing: Use a Kitchen Timer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple months ago a friend came through town because his band was playing a show at the Crystal Ballroom. We got breakfast at his favorite spot in Portland (Mother&#8217;s Bistro) and then wandered around downtown where we ended up in a guitar shop. The guys in the band started going through pedals and amps, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Coming to Nashville: An Evening with David Wilcox, Donald Miller and Becca Stevens</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ll be honored to read stories from old and new work (my first novel, in process) in Nashville this coming Monday. The event is a benefit for Porters Call, a counseling service in Nashville. It&#8217;s a tad spendy ($100) but the night will be unforgettable, I&#8217;m sure. So if you&#8217;re in Nashville, and want to [...]]]></description>
