Long ago, I thought I understood this: I tried keeping rules and working my head off to please God, and it didn’t work. So I quit being a “law man” so that I could be God’s man. Christ’s life showed me how, and enabled me to do it. I identified myself completely with him. The [...]
I mentioned an app that I use on my iPad in a recent post that was referenced only in passing. I’m constantly asked what Bible application I use, especially when someone sees me using my iPad in a situation where you would typically be using a Bible. Since this seems to be a topic of [...]
While this isn’t a technical blog, my geekness sometimes kicks in and draws me to a topic that holds my interest. I know that there are at least two of my ten readers who will also find it of interest. The other eight of you may even find it entertaining. I mentioned how I was [...]

I saw a handful experience “something;” whatever it might have been, however, isn’t having an impact on them now, decades later. I’m sure there [...]
I follow a twitterer (and blog writer) by the name of David Sitton. I love what he does in life and suppose I feel a sense of camaraderie that is bred from some sort of similarity in the way our lives have been orchestrated. He recently had an interesting article entitled The Missionary Call: How [...]
Oh, man, I really want to play!
The whole Terry Jones burning the Koran thing is frustrating. The response to what he did by Muslims in Afghanistan proves to many that he is right; the response of those outside the church to him proves to them that all Christians are that way. Burning the Koran is not the way of Jesus; that [...]
