My Reading Update

Last year Mike read through 50+ books and this year has a goal of reading 52 books (that’s one a week for my math challenged friends).  He threw the challenge out there and I answered the bell.  So far a lot of my reading has come through the gift of nine free ebooks for Christmas [...]

Jesus isn’t dead, but it looks like his body is dying

It’s been said that children are the future, but what at what point does the future have to finally become the present?  This past Sunday night Swift Current held it’s annual ecumenical prayer service, and this year it just happened to be held at our church.  It’s supposed to be a time when people from [...]

“L”ucky Man

A couple days ago Jenn and I were out for Chinese at Casey’s Restaurant in downtown Swiftyville.  I’m not usually a big fan of Chinese smorg – I prefer to be able to order individual dishes – but when someone else is paying you certainly can’t complain.  All in all it was a good meal, [...]

Help Me Spend My iTunes Money

I love me my music, and new music is one of the best gifts I can get.  Wonderfully, I have received $80 in iTunes gift cards over the past few months.  However, this also leaves me with somewhat of a quandry: What albums should I buy with said funds?  Thus far, I have spent about [...]

My Own Worst Enemy

Well, my friend Brad has a hankering for depth and seriousness, so I hope this will help to satiate his hunger for a while.  This post has been brewing in my life and mind for months now and I just haven’t made the time to put it all into words.  I’m sure this post won’t [...]

My Best/Worst of ‘08

My brother Jon gave his best of list this past week, and I guess it would only make sense for me to again steal someone else’s idea and give my best of list. As is usual for me though, I will also give my worst of list in the hopes of possibly disuading you [...]
