Unfaithful One

March 1, 2010 - 2:30 pm

Posted in Blog | 3 comments

That’s me. Unfaithful to keeping current with the blog that is. I was glad to see that Doug dropped by the other day to encourage me to keep posting. I’d like to, but as he notes, I’ve gotten out of the rut, and it’s not an easy thing to do to get back in. But [...]

Advice On Old Country Buffet

February 5, 2010 - 1:55 pm

Posted in Blog | 2 comments

If I had a category on my blog for things that make me smile, John Piper would frequently appear in it. So would my little dude. But as I’m not yet in the practice of posting videos of my little dude to my blog, this endorsement for Old Country Buffet from John Piper will have [...]

Note to self: Psalm 32 would be a good one to memorize.

A Man in a Hurry

January 29, 2010 - 10:48 pm

Posted in Bible Read-through | Comments Off

Today marks the beginning of the Gospel According to Mark in my reading plan. Something that immediately stands out to me is Mark’s use of the word “immediately.” He uses it eight times in the first chapter (and throws in a couple of “at once”es for good measure.) I hope over the next few days [...]

Discretion

January 28, 2010 - 4:31 pm

Posted in Bible Read-through, Blog | Comments Off

I have learned a thing or two about discretion in the past few years. For example. I’m using discretion in this here blog post. As a result, this is a very tame post. (I’m not posting what I originally thought I’d post.) In Bible read-through news: Today is day 28 of the year and for [...]

Question About Abraham’s Visitors

January 18, 2010 - 9:14 pm

Posted in Bible Read-through | 1 comment

So, somehow in all the other times (like a half dozen or so, maybe) that I’ve read Genesis 18, I didn’t remark on Abraham’s three visitors in the first part of the chapter. Well, maybe I did, but when I read it tonight, it seemed like the first time I read it. You see, I [...]

Avatar is Boring

We’re getting into the third week of January this week. Some of you will be half way through Exodus on in your Bible reading plan. Others, like me have just read about the transfiguration (Which caused me to ask, what is the nature of a vision?) God’s covenant with Abram, and we’re looking forward to [...]

Am I a Softy Because I’m a Dad?

January 14, 2010 - 10:15 pm

Posted in Blog | Comments Off

I’m thinking of the photos from Hati the last couple of days, but I have also noticed it in Compassion children, and even baby aliens (like from District 9.) Images I’d destitute children have much more of an effect on me because now I can relate to loving such a child because he is my [...]

Sleep Disrupts Reading

January 12, 2010 - 9:59 pm

Posted in Bible Read-through | Comments Off

I have made a decision as to how I am going to attempt to read through the Bible this year. It is my plan to read through my Bible reading plan by reading it aloud to the little dude. I’ve never read the entire Bible aloud, so that is new to me and a fun [...]

CBC Radio’s Incredibly Partisan Political Corespondent

January 12, 2010 - 8:27 am

Posted in Blog | 4 comments

I want to bring to your attention this morning, the incredibly partisan spot on The Great Northwest this morning on CBC radio in Thunder Bay. Did you hear it? It was one of the most lop-sided pieces I’ve heard in a long time. Now, I don’t fault our local radio people for this. I’m sure [...]
