Don’t Read This If You’re Easily Offended …
July 19, 201011 Comments
In my perusing of other “recovering pharisees” I came across this joke. It includes a portion that some may find offensive. If I had thought about it long enough I probably could have come up with different language, but this is a lighthearted way of stepping outside my box. You’re welcome to not read if [...]
Rebranding II
July 15, 20104 Comments
A few weeks ago I wrote about how I had failed over the years in rebranding myself. For the most part I would come away looking foolish to those who really knew me. I contended that it could be dangerous to rebrand if nothing changed. Rebranding is ok sometimes … My sister, who grew up [...]

My name is Bill and I am a Pharisee. I hope my recognition of who I am will enable me to make the journey away from chains of legalism towards liberty in Christ. My past is filled with judgment. Growing up in a legalistic family, if you looked like you were a sinner, then you [...]
