welcome to tohu va bohu
tohuvabohu.org is a weblog written by Sean Higgins since April 2004. The phrase "tohu va bohu" is Hebrew for "without form and void" in Genesis 1:2 and works well as a motto for the content found on this site. You can read more about the site here.

Too often do I see or hear people calling us American Christians “American Sub-culture Christians” we aren’t to be in this world (sub) and not of it. we are to be counter. other. I love that he mentioned that.
