		<title>Quiver getting heavy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My middle daughter sent me a text message this morning around 4:30 am letting me know I&#8217;d just added an 8lb 15oz, heavy-duty, arrow to my quiver: Don&#8217;t you see that children are God&#8217;s best gift? the fruit of the womb his generous legacy? Like a warrior&#8217;s fistful of arrows are the children of a vigorous youth. Oh, how blessed [...]]]></description>

		<title>My head is going to explode!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Maybe I just don&#8217;t know how to use it; maybe I do and it just an irritating feature that lots of folks like. Maybe YOU can help me! In Facebook, every time someone does anything &#8211;adds a friend, changes their profile picture, blows their nose, etc.&#8211; you are informed that this activity happened. How do [...]]]></description>

		<title>Original iPads, half price</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just had to pass this along&#8230; If you are interested in getting an original iPad, I have access through a contact. These are new units and are in the original factory wrapping, not off the back of a truck. They are from a hospital contract that was canceled due to government cutbacks. The numbers are [...]]]></description>

		<title>Funny, but very true</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Three surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on. The first surgeon says, &#8220;Electricians are the best. Everything inside is color-coded.&#8221; The second surgeon says, &#8220;No, I think librarians are. Everything inside them is in alphabetical order.&#8221; The third surgeon shut them up when he said, &#8221; You&#8217;re both wrong. Politicians are the easiest [...]]]></description>

		<title>Raising, or studying, Hell?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been in hell a lot recently. Not the figurative one, the literal one. And to be technically correct, I haven&#8217;t been physically there; I&#8217;ve been immersed in the concept of it. I&#8217;ve been reading many authors, including those in the Bible, and am beginning to realize that I don&#8217;t know much about hell. I guess you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lights! Wow!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love it when somebody &#8220;gets it.&#8221; Misconceptions, illusions, outright lies and then, suddenly, the light comes on. The look on their face is priceless. The change that comes about in their life is nothing short of miraculous. Keeping it can be work. Oh, what complicated webs we can weave! Destroying the lie of who [...]]]></description>

		<title>Merchants of Fear</title>
		<description><![CDATA[All levity aside, I am a bit concerned about Hurricane Irene. More properly stated, I&#8217;m concerned about all the hype that occurred around Hurricane Irene. For us here in North Carolina, she is now history. Yet, they still are not diminishing their prognostications of doom for the northeast. It is rather obvious, it was not about the [...]]]></description>

		<title>The end of the world&#8230; again!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Living in a beach community has its perks. It also has its downside. One of the downsides is raising its interesting head&#8230; hurricanes. In particular, one named Irene, is &#8220;bearing down&#8221; on Wilmington, NC and the mentality here is something akin to the end of the world. A decade ago, moving into Wilmington, we were [...]]]></description>

		<title>Cellular Life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have always thought small groups were important in the church. Ever since reading Roland Allen’s Spontaneous Growth of the Early Church and rediscovering (perhaps discovering for the first time) the growth of the church in Acts, I knew that most of the small groups I participated in came no where close to the cellular [...]]]></description>
