Thursday, March 22nd, 2007Scott McLane challenged me with these paradoxical commandments today. 1. People are illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered. Love them anyway. 2. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. 3. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. 4. The good you do [...]
Are you a Christian?
Sunday, March 4th, 2007Christian, by Maya Angelou When I say I am a Christian I’m not shouting I’m clean livin’; I’m whispering I was lost. Now I’m found and forgiven. When I say…I am a Christian; I don’t speak of this with pride. I’m confessing that I stumble and need CHRIST to be my guide. When I say… [...]
Deja Vu all over again
Sunday, January 21st, 2007This morning, at 11 am, I found my car like this. That’s never happened to me before … since Thursday. Twice in four days. The same window. Same corner. Must be some kind of record. The cops who took the report today said they had taken 20 similar complaints this morning, and had seen other [...]
Count it all joy
Thursday, January 18th, 2007At 8:30 am today, I found my car like this. Thankfully, nothing was stolen, and Geico’s glass policy covered the entire cost of replacing the window. For some reason, this view on the corner of 6th Ave and 32nd Street cheered me up. (All photos taken with my cell phone)trailer adult movieporn best moviesbilara beast [...]
There’s Something about Aunt Mary
Wednesday, January 17th, 2007I’ve been thinking about Aunt Mary today. Two things I want to share. First is Aunt Mary’s courage in the face of adversity. She was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer around 10 years ago. The doctors said it was too late to reverse the cancer’s course. Even with agressive treatments including surgery, chemo, and [...]
No middle ground

The “Ministry of Disequilibrium”
Monday, December 18th, 2006Joseph usually gets no love. As a supporting character in the greatest story ever told, and a bit player in the narratives about it, he’s left to lurk in the shadows cast by his stepson Jesus and the virgin mother Mary. My Uncle Dave pointed this out to me this summer, and said he wants [...]
The Dash
Monday, December 11th, 2006This is worth a read. If you’d prefer the multimedia version, go here. The Dash Poem by Linda Ellis I read of a man who stood to speak At the funeral of a friend He referred to the dates on her tombstone From the beginning to the end He noted that first came her date [...]
The Haggard Truth
Wednesday, November 8th, 2006Leadership Journal’s blog “Out of Ur” offers sobering insight from Gordon MacDonald, himself a survivor of scandal, on the Ted Haggard story. On TH’s personal struggles: This deeper person … can be the source of attitudes and behaviors we normally stand against in our conscious being. But it seeks to destroy us and masses energies [...]
Another Chapter in the Judah Chronicles
Thursday, November 2nd, 2006It’s been a while since I wrote about my son, so here’s a story from this week. Tuesday night before bed, Judah prayed that I “wouldn’t be fired.” (Where he learned about being fired I’m not sure.) When I asked him what he meant, he thought for a second and said: “Well, I guess you [...]
