Blog Competition With My Wife
She just posted information about recycling crayons. Sound crazy? Check it out here. She is great at finding stuff like this, and really anything on arts and crafts. But that is not the reason I am writing. The reason is because she and I are competing and she doesn’t even know it, and I’m losing. … Continue reading
Trying Out Desktop Blogging
I’m using Windows Live Writer. I had to do something because it takes forever to post using the dashboard. A lot of it has to do with the fact that every time I log on I find something to tweak, and there goes another hour of my life. Someone was talking about me doing a … Continue reading
New Theme, Arthemia
I’ve been tweaking my old theme for so long and finally realized it was not the right one for my needs. This new theme is called Arthemia and is great. It is very customizable and easy to use. You do need to know how to work with Custom Fields a little, but really that is … Continue reading

Christians and Saving the Environment
There are people in our church who have downsized their cars, but was it for fuel economy or environmental concerns? Let’s talk about it.. Continue reading

If you listen to the Republicans, the Democrats will make the country broke and bankrupt us morally. It looks like either way, if you listen to them, … Continue reading

Revivals, Pastors and Discernment
I want to take a detour and look at something that has been in the news lately; something that has plagued the cause of Christ since the beginning of time. I wrote on August 21st about Michael Guglielmucci (see the post), and it made me sad and angry at the same time. How could someone … Continue reading
Author of ‘Healer’ Admits He Lied about Having Cancer
One of my favorite worship bands is Planetshakers, a group out of Australia. On one of their newest albums, a song called ‘Healer’, written by a man named Michael Guglielmucci, was released. Incidentally, it was on the newest release of Hillsong (This is Our God) too. It has been removed from the website but can … Continue reading
To Facebook or not to Facebook
My wife has a Facebook page. Her 60 something, mostly girl, friends have a Facebook. Kids at church have a Facebook page. And now, inexplicably, two of my (guy) friends who are both in their 40′s (they will remain nameless) have Facebook pages. Gene and Gerald (couldn’t help it), one single and one with 3 … Continue reading
