When I was a child, I crawled on the Internet, thanks to SBC who will not provide DSL for quite some time. Now that I am a man, thanks to David C. intorducing me to Sam C., I fly on the Internet at home.
Surely this will lead to some late night posts after reading some [...]

Words …
Transitions often create “word game” climates. For example, this morning I was listening to Fox News and they were discussing the DNC and Edwards speech from last night. Today both a Democrat and a Republican commented that it was a note from a Mario Cuomo speech from 1984. The idea to divide America so that [...]
So far so good …
I took Kimberly back to the surgeon yesterday and we recieved a good word. If things remain clear for about the next ten days we can declare things successful. Keep her in your prayers.
Does the suit make a person …
The Washingon Post ran an article about a recent photo taken of Democratic Presidential Candidate John Kerry. Seems some have made this photo taken at NASA an “image” to coincide with Kerry’s assumed far left positions.
I have been watching some of the Democratic National Convention, though a Republican, to see what issues are presented as [...]
Witness is …
In his book, The Continuing Conversion of the Church, Darrell Guder suggests “witness” should be a key image for understanding the mission of the church. He writes,

If we understand mission as witness and seek to be guided by the biblical language of witness, the missiologically structured theology of evangelism will have to include these emphases:

Thankful …
For the last eight months we Kimbelry has wrestled with a medical issue. She had her third surgery last Friday. Sunday we got a bit of a scare when it seemed the symptoms returned signalling yet another failure. After a visit to the surgeon yesterday, it appears things were successful and what she experienced was [...]
Ironies …
Our Bible Study today centered around Habakuk’s wrestling with the apparent lack of action on the part of God to descipline his people. As Lyle taught, he did a great job, I was struck by the irony of Habakuk 1:5. God replied to Habakuk that he was goint to do something he wouldn’t believe were [...]
Sometimes a story makes the point … we must be a blessing to the world …
Rick at Aintsobad relayed a story. Pay attention to the end of the story and the phrase, “Sometimes I remember to be like Him.”
Here is the story – grab a kleenex.
LaraBeth
The first time I saw Larabeth she sat straddle the rail of the overpass bridge. In truth I feared she planned to jump.
I pulled over [...]
What it will be like …
We shared a good yet disturbing week around the house. Good in that Patty and I spent some time hanging out, working on a project or two and gathering tomatos. Disturbing in that we realized that one day the week we enjoyed will be the staple for our future. Kimberly now married and Tommie away [...]
Role reversal … “comment-or” becomes “post-or” …
Lyle offered a very insightful comment to a recent post. Many do not read the comments. There are times when I am glad for this. Like when someone gets on who intends to use the site for personal advertisement – other websites offering interesting assistance. I try to monitor these closely. In my recent reading [...]
