Prayer

If you happen to be reading this anytime soon please pray for me. There's a lot going on right now that I can't really talk about here, but in a couple of weeks I'll be able to share much more. Just know that I could really use your prayers. Pray for health, and for wisdom. I'll be away at a conference next week that is pretty important so I would appreciate prayer for that as we...

Sick

Yesterday morning I woke up with the feeling that sickness was coming on. I could tell I was going to have a pretty nasty chest cough starting soon. Well, by last night I was feeling pretty bad. It was a long day of meetings, including 9 holes of golf with my pastor (sounds relaxing I know, but it was difficult the way I was feeling), and a couple hours of baseball practice. During the night I think I was running a fever as I went from freezing to hot every so often. So this morning I stayed home until after lunch time, watched the congressional hearing with Roger Clemens (say it ain't so Roger!), and a few episodes of Lost. Speaking of Lost, if you haven't watched it you probably shouldn't. It's quickly become an obsession with me and my wife. We borrowed the first three seasons from a friend...

Super Tuesday

Today is Super Tuesday. It's basically the day that should decide who the presidential candidates will be. It's been pretty interesting to see some of the debates and to hear what each candidate's strengths and weaknesses are. There are some other issues on the ballot as well. Most of them have to do with Indian gaming and casinos. It's funny because every election I get things in the mail from different organizations that tell me how to vote on each issue. Something like, Arnold says to vote yes on 94, 95, 96, 97. Or, the organization of firefighters say vote yes on blah, blah, blah. I pretty much don't even look at that stuff. It kind of makes me sad to think that some people vote exactly how an organization, or a particular party tells them to vote. I'm a registered Republican, and I have...

Jared

I know this guy who is kind of a dork. He rarely showers, and he stinks at disc golf. However, he's a pretty smart kid who has some really good things to say. So I think that he should start a blog of his own and begin to develop further his writing skills, so that he may one day be the next Tolstoy as he once told me he was. I know that I would read such a blog quite intently, even if it were simple thoughts on the reading he was doing. He has some good insight, and I think blogging could greatly benefit his development as a writer, a thinker, and a Christian. Plus, then I could quote him in sermons instead of simply referring to his disgusting feet.&nb...
