I've had plenty of people ask me what I'm doing for "the 4th" (it's interesting how a little international travel can make you sensitive to how many people don't celebrate the 4th of July 🙂 ). My only plan was to workout, sadly. I could barbeque, but I'd have to do vegan stuff too, and …
Discipleship Series I – The Man in the Mirror
But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it – he will be blessed in what he does – James 1:25 Jesus in the Real World James’ letter is short, sweet, and to the point. It has …

Heroes… more than a sandwich…
Today is Memorial Day.

I've been thinking about the recent events, and love the preponderance of blogs, comments, posts, etc. about the action against bin Laden... to a …
Riding Horses…
Earlier this week, I visited some friends who have a ranch in Nevada. Being a city/suburban kid, the only time I got close to farm animals was on school field trips. There were some ranches around the area I lived growing up, but all I would do is run by them and see the animals …
