A Busy Day

This was a busy day! I have a major project that needs to be completed tomorrow by 5:00 PM so I’m in crunch mode as I try to get that put to rest. It looks now like we’ll have to launch the site in a slightly stripped-down form, but it should still be functional. We’ll just have to tack on the rest of the site after it launches. I’ve been busy enough that I haven’t been able to read more than the back covers of the four books I got for my birthday.

I’m also working on a redesign of this site. “Why?” you ask. Well, I am trying to make more information more accessible. I’m also trying to make a site that conforms to all the HTML and CSS validation rules. So far so good. I’m looking for a few people to test-drive the new site, which should launch as soon as this weekend, so if you’re interested, post a comment or drop me a line and I’ll send you the link. If you’re a photographer and have any good pictures that are short and wide (ie 200 pixels high by 750 wide) that would look nice as a banner, let me know!

    Throw Out the Buoys!

    Happy Lies

    I’m quite certain you have heard of the New Age movement. Though its popularity seems to have crested and begun to wane some time ago, it continues to wield a good bit of influence. But I wonder if you’ve heard of another similarly-named but quite different movement called New Thought.

  • Who Am I?

    It is not simply that we as a culture have lost our knowledge of God, but that in so doing we have also lost sight of ourselves. “Who am I?” is the question of the age.

    If I Could Change Anything about the Modern Church

    I have often been asked what I consider the greatest weakness of today’s church or what I would change about today’s church if I could. Such questions make for good discussion at a conference Q&A session but they are also pretty much impossible to answer in a compelling way. It’s not like any of us…
