  • Random Thoughts

    Why is it that all the people who do these concerts to save the planet take their private jets that burn more fuel in one hour than my car does all year? I am a little ashamed that my neighbors have made more active moves to talk to me than I have to them when…

  • What They Don’t Teach You in Bible College about Youth Ministry #3

    The Student that Lived This incident was a very scary one to say the least.  I was home, getting ready for bed after a fairly normal youth service, when I received a phone call from Amy, my JR High director.  She wanted to let me know that a parent had arrived to pick up her…

  • We read the Bible

    A friend and I have started a new blog strictly for the purpose of reading through the Bible.  It is found at We read the Bible.com   We used to do a forum but we didn’t really have the interest to make it happen but we think this will work out better.  People can read along…

  • Reading the Bible

    I am looking to begin a group reading of the Bible in July.  I have planned to go through the NT, and take the rest of the year to do it, I know that may seem pretty slow but I am also planning to take time to study things I have questions about, and look…
