Looking Back Again

Round about a year ago, I was looking for a new job, a new place to live, and a new direction in my life. Now I have two jobs, a place to live, and enough direction to figure out where I should probably head from here. I'm probably going to sound like a broken record...

Some Things About the New Year

Little by Little

Sometimes there is a task so huge that I'm not sure I'm ever going to get it done. Sometimes that feeling keeps me from even bothering to start the task, and it goes undone for a long time. But it's like the saying goes: "How do you eat a whole elephant? One bite at a...

Stewarding

In church yesterday we talked about being a steward. When you are a steward, you handle someone else's resources on their behalf. To have this position requires you to be trustworthy, loyal, and skilled. Do we meet those qualifications when it comes to all God has...

Questions about Daniel and the Lions

We've been teaching the little kids at church about Daniel in the lions' den (Daniel 6), and lately I've been wondering about all the little details. They aren't important for me to know otherwise they'd be there. While some of the details are readily apparent, I do...
