I always wanted my name painted on the office door.
The EAA air show in Oshkosh in Wisconsin, that is. flyGarmin was going to be released to the public for the first time in conjunction with the beginning of the air show. Garmin had a Monday morning press conference announcing all sorts of stuff, and flyGarmin was on the list. I was pacing around the [...]
We’re considering a change in our church that would change our church government to an “elder-based” system. The Bible doesn’t say a whole lot about how to organize a local church, but it seem pretty plain that elders were the group saddled with leadership. We currently have a fairly common set-up where leadership authority and [...]
I sat with family at a wonderful Thanksgiving. I sat late at night reading to an aged, dying family member. She passed twelve hours later. I sat at the wedding of a couple from church. I hardly know what to say.
A friend recently asked me what I thought of J. P. Moreland. Unbelievably, I had little to say. :) I’ve come across Moreland’s arguments in various places, but I’d never heard or read anything directly from him. Well, I’ve been listening to a whole bunch of his Veritas Forum lectures (free MP3s). Good stuff. I recommend [...]
Last Friday (I think) I heard a long interview of Christopher Hitchens concerning his latest book God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything. He is a well-spoken and witty man, but during the interview he failed to progress much further than anger and weak logic, all with a dogmatic yet inexplicably founded moral tone. There’s [...]
And a whole lot more. :) http://www.redeemerbaptist.org I’ve finally switched on a group of changes I’ve been thinking about and working on for a long time. We had a site up, but it was basically straight WordPress, which just didn’t work well for what we were looking for. Well, it’s still WordPress, but with a much more customized [...]
See my lovely bride’s blog to know why. :)
“Worship is the submission of all of our nature to God. It is the quickening of conscience by His holiness, nourishment of mind by His truth, purifying of imagination by His beauty, opening of the heart to His love, and submission of will to His purpose. And all this gathered up in adoration is the greatest of human expressions of which [...]
No, not MLK… c’mon, have some respect. Here’s the audio of the famous “I Have a Dream” speech, given on August 28, 1963 on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. Now that I’ve started to become more familiar with Lincoln, the speech strikes me as very like Lincoln’s work. Not too long. Elegant language. Rich analogy. [...]
Here’s a fun spoof of the “I’m a Mac. I’m a PC.” ads. Fun. :) Update: Oh good heavens… I said “fun” twice in the span of less than a dozen words. I hang my head in shame. Look, it was late.
