This Song is Hopeful – "Ain't No Reason"
We have a really good college radio station in my community. They play some really good indie rock. I heard this song the other day and thought “wow! that chorus is hopeful.” I like it. It’s by Brett Dennen. He’s really a fantastic guitar player. If you’re into acoustic style rock, check out some of…

Letters to juliet – not too bad
So I mave have had a preference for Robin Hood or Iron Man 2, but I sucked it up and went to see Letters to Juliet with my wife yesterday evening. Guys, if your wife is dying for you to take her to a romantic comedy type movie with a touch of drama, you could…

6th Plague has hit my house …
Boils. My daughter has a staph infection and it’s manifesting itself as boils on her knee, elbow, and side. I guess they’re probably not the same thing as Biblical boils, but not pleasant nonetheless. This might be a good place for a picture, but I’m going to spare you …

My blogging energies are cyclical
I think they are for everyone, well almost everyone, maybe not #1 and #2. I’ve not been blogging much lately, but this isn’t really one of those “sorry I haven’t blogged in a while post.” I think that is just the ebb and flow of life online or otherwise. So, if I haven’t blogged to…

So, my buddy won an award at the Tribeca Film Festival …
He won an award last year in the short film category for his film called “Home.” Matt and I have been friends for a long time, since the 8th grade actually. We were roommates in college for a while (in fact I’m going to be having lunch with him today in a bit). He’s put…

Darrel Falk on Bruce Waltke's Resignation
I agree with Darrel Falk here (of course I accept an evolutionary understanding of the origins of human beings, so I guess I would agree). Kudos to Bruce Waltke for being open and honest. I particularly like the final assessment (though I’m no longer an evangelical, I was one), also cited in the Inside Higher…

The Stellenbosch Trio of bloggers and more …
So, I’ve added a Blogroll. It’s not extensive, but these are the blogs I click through to the most. Some blogs I once read a lot more than I do now, and I’m reading others a bit more than I once did. With that said, the list will stay in flux. Many of these folks…

Heard this song this morning and thought about Ecclesiastes…
Not sure what it was, maybe all that stuff about enjoying life (2.24-25; 3.12-14) and how it’s not good to be alone (4.7-12).

Changed my blog's tagline
So, I changed my blog’s tagline to more accurately reflect what I actually do here. It previously said something about helping people understand the Old Testament, which I think the rest of my website does and which I do on my blog sometimes. But, that’s not really an entirely accurate description of what I do…

One thing you can accomplish when you blog less …
You can exercise more and meet your weight loss goals. I made a bet against myself at the beginning of February. If I didn’t lose 15 pounds in two months I had to give away my iPhone. Well here I am 16 pounds lighter:
