Lenten Reflections 2010

Last night I started a series of Lenten Reflections in my church parish. These are intended for lay people in my parish, so hopefully they are free from academic jargon. If you are in a tradition that celebrates Lent, or even if you are not, you might want to give them a listen. There will…

Your Mid-February BiblioBlog Top 50

Well, I’ve been a bit behind this month, but that’s alright … at least by me. Anyway, I thought I’d make my first post back after a bit of a holiday (that is Mardi Gras holiday to all northerners) a ranking post to let everyone know where they stand. And, for most all of you…

Dissertation Progress and …

a few other family matters have filled my time this week. I just finished up edits of Chapter 4 and Chapter 5. Now, I’ll be writing the intro and conclusion while those are under review probably for a bit more editing. We had a “snow day” Friday, which for us means everything shuts down because…

It's Snowing in South Louisiana …

That may not seem like that big of a deal to you Northerners, but this rarely happens here … which means that we are ill-equipped to deal with it. Seriously … our power could go out at any moment … we could have tons of fatal crashes … we have no really cold weather clothing…

Jesus, Mary, and Joel Watts

Okay that title is a little misleading, but I couldn’t resist. Yesterday, a secondary writer on Joel’s blog posted about attending mass on the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes (Check the comments – I think Joel might agree with what I’m saying here). Unfortunately, he appears to have gotten a poor sampling of Catholic…

Don't Blame Me Moses … That Calf Just Came Out

I was listening to Exodus today and 32:24 sounded a bit funny. So, I looked at the Hebrew and compared a few translations. Sure enough … Aaron sounds like a weasel. Moses comes down from the mountain and finds the people with their golden calf. And, here is Aaron’s response (translation comparison a cut and…

Drew Brees – The Religious Faith of the SuperBowl MVP

The sight of Drew Brees with his son after the SuperBowl moved even the most hardened among us. I thought that this video gives a little more insight into who he is. I can’t say that I agree with him about a number of things here (e.g. I genuinely don’t believe that anybody can do…

Did that Simpleton Joel Link to Me Again? …

Because … you know, I really never can tell. I rarely see any bump in my traffic when he says that he does. This only serves to confirm my suspicion that NO ONE ACTUALLY READS JOEL’S BLOG. Poor Joel, I feel a little sorry for the guy. It’s got to be hard sitting around all…

The Audio Bible I'm Listening To

I recently mentioned that I’m currently listening through the Bible. Here’s the Bible I’m listening to: New American Bible (Audio). The reader is a little bit dry, but I’ve checked the guy out. He is the reader for many of the most economical audio Bibles on the market currently. It only cost me 1 Audible…

Come on Knock My Teeth Out … You Know You Want To

Some people are reading through the Bible this year … or, said they were going to and have already stopped. By this time maybe they hit the instructions for building the tabernacle and their commitment gave up the ghost so to speak. I on the other hand am starting to listen through the Bible. If…
