Breakfast in bed
Sunday, May 15th, 2005Judah awoke this morning around 8:30. Mom and I weren’t ready to wake up fully, so I laid down with him on the couch as he watched Caillou. Predictably I dozed until Judah gently shook me saying, “Come into the kitchen. I have a surprise for you.” “Yikes,” I thought. Kitchen surprises usually backfire, but [...]

They were the first ones to figure out what God was up to, beacuse God wanted them on the inside. God could have communicated with them any way…. But [...]

MK: J, here’s my initial salvo on the book. [Caveats.] Me: You said a mouthful for an initial salvo. Can’t wait for the sequel. MK: What I liked: [...]
Faith like a child
Wednesday, May 11th, 2005I’ve written several times about my son, the incomparable Judah Jeremy. I love his faith and spiritual sensibilities (among everything else about him!). Judah has been faithfully praying at home, before bed (and periodically at random times during the day) for Samuel C. just about every day since Sam’s leukemia diagnosis last summer. Judah started [...]
The Gospel according to Neo
Wednesday, May 11th, 2005Church planter Matt Kruse started a blog last month. Yesterday’s post was so “postmodern”: “We preached Jesus from a movie with guns and helicopters smashing into buildings, but everyone trusted me enough and is thinking missionally enough to go with it.” His church, Edgeworth, is also launching an innovative, web-based outreach this weekend at a [...]
