Review: Awesome God (Children's Worship CD)

Friday, January 13th, 2006

Awesome God, by Sovereign Grace Ministries, was sent to me recently to be reviewed. It's a children's worship CD, and I happen to be a parent too!
Technical:  The instrumentals were fabulous. The mix on the instruments was great. Didn't care so much for the way the vocals were mixed in, though. Sometimes it was hard to […]

Thanks to everyone who came to Kinsey's one year old birthday party, and thanks to everyone to has been involved in her life, this first year.  Special thanks from her parents for the countless people who have helped us as we're still learning to be parents.  And thanks above all to God who gave her […]

What About Local Poverty

Tuesday, January 10th, 2006

An article by T David Gordon, called A Biblical Theology of Poverty and Almsgiving, gives us room to ask some questions about our approach towards the local poor.  I find it hard to balance the fact that the local poor are still somewhat rich compared to the global poor, but either way, his comments towards […]

Buechner on Life as Grace

Monday, January 9th, 2006

Taking your children to school and kissing your wife goodbye. Eating lunch with a friend. Trying to do a decent day's work. Hearing the rain patter against the window.

The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006

So I went to go see The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe yesterday.  Five word review is, this is a great movie.  It's probably no secret, but the Chronicles of Narnia carry a profound parable for the history of mankind, the fall, the redemption, and the making new of all things, intended by God.
I cried […]
