My occasional friend, Wes Cauthers, suggested that he and I attempt a podcast. Podcast might even me a misnomer. We are going to try and get to know each other better and all the while hit the record-button while we do it. Wes and I met over a decade ago, and we have bumped into […]
Just published in Christianity Today/Leadership Journal is a new article that explores the “Biblical” gospel-proclaimed. So often, when discussing the message of the gospel, Christians rely upon passages from the letters of the Apostle Paul (or others) and yet these letters are not even examples of Christians talking to non-Christians, they are instead Christians talking […]

I recently wrote an article for Christianity Today/Leadership Journal called, “Why I gave back my assurance of salvation.” One the ideas that I pondered there was placing my hope in the idea that at the end of days, God will be just. God will do the just thing. It was a statement of hope, in […]

I recently wrote a blog post talking about the profound impact that the movie “Good Will Hunting’ had on me in the most difficult year of my life. I believe it is safe to say that GWH “saved” me in some very real ways: http://tonykriz.com/?p=978 The post was surprisingly popular, so I thought I would throw […]
In my new article over on Parse (a blog of Christianity Today). In it, I consider the idea that I (and we as a religious society) respond to the world and to our neighbors as if there are two kinds of sin.

We are in the midst of planning for next year’s Faith and Culture Writers Conference. I am taking a more hands on role this year, because it looks like it will be hosted by Warner Pacific College, the school where I am honored to serve as the Author in Residence. In light of that anticipation […]
First of all, you need to know that I don’t read books. I know… crazy… but it’s true. I had some real learning challenges growing up (so books have never been my friends) and that, coupled with a hefty diet of 80’s cartoons and sitcoms, and well… you are left with a 43 year old […]
