| Introduction | I read, I play games, I play with my kids, I goof around with music, I chase God. I love thinking and reading about theology and sociology and economics and globalisation and pop culture and anything else that catches my eye. I am fascinated by China, perpetually frustrated by the Cubs, in pursuit of life with Jesus, and hopeful that the world will be better when I leave it. |

When you hesitate before hitting snooze on your alarm clock, are you being lazy?
that's not laziness, that is the desperate wish that it is simply a bad dream and that the alarm is not really going off.
