A few days ago we had a miscarriage. As we were waiting for the ultrasound to confirm what we suspected I missed an opportunity for evangelism, and it sparked another idea in my mind.
Venturing Some More
Last December I wrote a post on Venturing It All on Christ, and though it sparked some conversation on and (mostly) off the blog, I really felt at the time like I had, as Challies would say, “laid an egg” with that post. Somewhere along the way I lost the real purpose and intent of that post and never was …
Contrasting My Appetites
This evening I find myself in a strange position: the kids are asleep, Janis is out enjoying a well-deserved girls’ night with sisters from Church, and I’ve just one of my extra-curricular projects for work.

Venture It All
Around the beginning of this year, a remarkable change happened in my life.

The themes of consistency and bearing fruit in our lives as evidence of our salvation have become more real and applicable to me than at any time in my Christian life. Now, anyone who has spent much time around …
Best. Conversation. Ever.
This is a recap of a conversation I had with my 3 1/2 year old son, Wesley, at about 7:30 this morning. He sat with me as I finished my bible reading and prayer, then we reviewed this week’s Fighter Verse: “He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not …
My Right Hand Man
It’s been on my mind today that I should craft another blog post today, since the next few days are going to be very busy. I don’t want to wake up one day and find I’ve hit a 2 week dry spell. For one thing, he of the gleaming pate would mock my silence.
And Life Goes On
I’m feeling mildly convicted for not blogging more often. I’m not sure why… as this is a new blog it’s not like I have much of an audience beyond the beautiful lady who is often staring across the desk at me as I write these posts.
Day 2
It’s the end of Day 2 with no TV.
