rebelling against low expectations
Dust gathers on my keyboard, maple leaves stick to pavement, tests keep me awake at 12:30 a.m., shuffled papers and empty coffee mugs clutter my desk by the window, and I sit, staring into space, with so many thoughts I cannot fathom into words. Sometimes I have to wonder if the world really does spin faster as we get older, time slips between our fingers like sand, and the ticking of the clock...

Ready for a peace rally? Of all the reasons people fight, one of the worst, I think, is because some are male and some are female. Why can’t we just relax and get along? There is something wrong about feminism. We know that as Christians. But sometimes we take it for granted and don’t stop to think about what it is. Just what is it that makes feminism wrong? Well, what makes anything wrong? Think...
Back in August you all helped make Counted Worthy a reality by supporting Leah’s Kickstarter Campaign. Well guess what? The wait is over and Counted Worthy is here! Leah asked me (Brett) to consider writing an endorsement and I was so impressed I offered to both endorse it and promote it on TheRebelution.com. You may have noticed that Counted Worthy has its own page under...
UPDATED 11/06/14: Our website has been crushed with traffic to watch this video. Why is that?

My alarm went off. It was 6:00 in the morning, cold and uninviting. My bed was very warm – and seemed even more so when I stuck out my hand to turn off the annoying screech of the alarm clock. One glance at my calendar hanging on the wall totally disheartened me. The day was full of classes. Sleep was still near enough to slip silently and peacefully into school-less oblivion. Just as my eyes...
DAVID WRITES: Following God’s will can be rather intimidating sometimes when other people claim that you’re delusional or just making something up. I’m always worried that I’ll end up doing something that I thought God was telling me to do only to find out that He didn’t tell me that at all. How can you be completely certain that God is telling you to do something...
(New York Times Magazine) — One weekend in February, in the kitschy, barnlike house he shares with his mother and grandmother in the San Fernando Valley, Flynn McGarry was preparing an eight-course tasting menu for 15 guests. The McGarrys’ living room, which is dominated by a gigantic brick fireplace, had been cleared to make room for four tables draped with white tablecloths that his mom, Meg...
