Evangelism: I’m proud of my sister. When she gets an idea into her head, look out! She has gotten the ladies in her neighborhood mobilized!

Humor: When the Reformed speak in tonuges. (HT: TulipGirl)

Music: Here is a song that I am quite sure will not be winning any songwriting awards. It is “Love Addict” by the band Family Force 5 (from the album Business Up Front, Party In The Back). For some reason the lyrics for this other song remind me of my family down in Atlanta.

Blogroll: Here is a blog you may wish to add to your reading list. Pulpit Live is the official blog of the Shepherd’s Fellowship.

The Most Pleasant Show on Television

I rarely review, recommend, or even mention movies and television programs. I rarely do so because I am aware that tastes vary and so too do family rules and personal consciences. Not only that, but I am not very adept at understanding the themes or messages in visual media and wouldn’t wish to inadvertently lead…

Let the Lord Choose

Though we are limited beings with little knowledge, we are proud beings with little humility. When Jesus taught us to pray, he taught us to bring our petitions before the Lord, to bring to him all our cares, all our burdens, all our sorrows. We can and should plead our case before the Lord, for…
