It’s 9:35 PM, and I just might make it to be before 10 tonight. That would be appreciated because my body wants the rest. And my mind. I stayed at work until about 8 tonight working on updating an application that doesn’t want to let go of me. It was developed by someone else,...

I’ve been listening to this on repeat for the last three or four days, if not watching the video. Why? I don’t know. Yeah- I know, it’s old. I know. Everyone had their day loving it. Yeah- it was a big hit. It’s typical super pop fare. Still, I love it. I totally dug...

Tullian had a post today on his blog about the centrality of the gospel in the Christian’s life, and how for many, it is viewed as simply the gate one passes through to join the club, instead of as the path one must walk down into Christ’s kingdom. He makes the point that preachers...

It’s been a kind of tough week. First, my truck gets sick, which results in a sizable repair bill (yeah, it was the clutch). I guess maybe before first, my body has not felt well for a couple of weeks now. I have periodic bouts with abdominal discomfort, colon unhappiness, limb aches, and esophageal...

Driving to and from work today kind of describes how the ride of my life has felt over the last few weeks. It all started yesterday afternoon as I drove my truck home from an event after church. In the lower gears, I noticed as I went to up-shift and down-shift, it felt like...

It’s almost midnight, and I am up cooking a lasagna for a staff appreciation dinner our small group is giving for the Sagebrush Highland leaders. We just wanted to do a small thing to say thank you to them for their service and their leadership at our campus, and the dinner after church tomorrow...

I don’t play slots much, but as I thought today about gambling via these machines and taking chances in life, a few observations came to mind. Feel free to tack on a few of your own. 1. If you decide to play a slot machine that is clearly marked with an “Out of Order”...

It’s funny- we think because we are tied into social networks, we would feel ourselves more intimately connected with others in our life and in our world. Not the case, creator Shimi Cohen argues in this remarkable short video. Shimi makes some poignant observations about the human heart in modern times. Loneliness remains...

I think I like the evening post better than the morning post since I usually review my day to find things to talk about. In the morning, just not a lot has happened yet, and I have already forgotten many of the highlights the previous day. I don’t know. This writing things is a...
Read more →As with most things interwebbed, I came across this powerful post through a friend on Facebook. The author, David Mikus, reflecting on the loss of his long time love to divorce, gives some suggestions for other men wanting to go the distance in life with their mate. “Obviously, I’m not a relationship...

As a change, I’m actually writing this here post at 7 in the morning, as opposed to trying to write it at 11 PM. It is nice to be up with the feeling that a new day is ahead, and that I am somehow a little less tired than I was 8 hours ago....

It’s been a good day, but par for the course, I am up too late, and feel I am too tired to write a sensible post. But I tend to feel like that anytime I try to write a post on here, so why is that new. I thought I would just highlight the...
Read more →I had a friend message me today on Facebook, asking me if I could give her the link to a blog a like. I had shared a link to it earlier in the week, and I guess it stood out enough for my friend to remember it to ping me to ask me about...
Read more →I’m not the biggest fan of birthdays. I mean, it is something to make it another year, but birthdays also remind me that, well, I am a little older, and there is still a lot in life I thought I would have accomplished or experienced in life by now, but I haven’t. Still, I...
