Thursday, August 18th, 2005We’ve been counting down the days to August 16, five-year-old Samuel Carrasco’s last day of major chemo. It’s been over a year since his leukemia diagnosis last summer, and Judah has prayed for him nearly every day since we first got the news. On August 17th, Sam’s fatigued little body needed a blood transfusion. The [...]
Thank you, from the Stevens family
Friday, August 12th, 2005Matt asked me to share this with you all: Dear Friends, Words cannot express how grateful we are for all that you have done and continue to do for our family. Your support, presence and prayers are holding us up through out this experience. We are overwhelmed with the love you have generously given us. [...]
Get over it
Friday, August 12th, 2005[Click the image for a larger view] Even at 10 years old, Caleb found time to keep a journal. Not everyday, but often enough that it contained some profound insights. One of my favorites included a sketch, with a caption that reads: “I always have faith in God. Somedays I don’t feel like it but [...]
These are the times that try men’s souls
Thursday, August 11th, 2005I’ve been reading 1776 this summer. Completing it has taken far too long, but the delays were evidently a divine thing. They insured that I would read this passage on the train this morning: “In August, [General George] Washington had an army of 20,000. In the three months since, he had lost four battles — [...]
Live Well
Tuesday, August 9th, 2005Caleb did. The Celebration service on Monday lived up to its billing. That a ten-year old boy could have touched so many and left a legacy of compassion and kindness is a testimony to great parents and authentic, child-like faith. Kudos to Pastor Kevin Harrison of Gospel Tabernacle for conducting the service with grace and [...]
He died in daddy’s arms
Saturday, August 6th, 2005From Matt Stevens (8/5/05): Today I held my son in my arms as he took his last breath. Caleb was 10 years old and lived an amazing life, only to have a car accident on a back country road end it. Besides the tragedy, I want to share with you what he spent his last [...]
One year ago today, dad almost died
Thursday, August 4th, 2005At approximately 3 pm, August 4, 2004, my dad was in a shoulda-been-fatal motorcycle accident on an Ohio highway. Providence and a full-faced helment saved his life.

Two cents worth
Tuesday, July 12th, 2005Consider:1. Dinner conversations between Simon the zealot and Matthew the tax collector. Zealots were 1st century, politically activist Jews who advocated the violent overthrow of Roman occupation and, on occassion, made political statements through the shedding of blood (think PLO or Islamic Jihad … old-school terrorists), while tax collectors were Jewish appeasers of Rome. As [...]
Perspective, part two
Wednesday, July 6th, 2005After the commotion of the Crusade and Xcel’s June calendar, I took Thursday and Friday off to extend the holiday weekend and hopefully get some rest. But alas, rest was not to be. On Thursday, Judah and I picked up his friend Sammy for two days of all-boy fun (see Perspective, part one, below). Unfortunately [...]
Perspective, part one
Tuesday, July 5th, 2005(Judah and Sammy at the Bibleman altar call last week.) Last Thursday, Judah and I picked up his buddy Sammy for two days of boys-only fun. The first thing out of Sammy’s mouth was that a man shot his brother six times “over there,” and he pointed to the courtyard just outside his building. “See [...]
