Shack- attack
Ok, I promised to keep all blogites updated on my progress as I make my way through this book that everyone; everywhere seems to reading. Let me just say “interesting”. Now I don’t want to give any of it away. So last night I read the chapter on walking on water which had my “swimming” in theological comparisons. I must admit I have not yet had that feeling that...
Shack- craze
Well I am blogging to let you know I am now officially a part of the “Shack” craze. Every where I go people are talking about The Shack. One of my secretaries ask me if I had read it and I told her “no” - so she picked me up a copy and now I am about half way through. Oh, you want to know what I am thinking don’t you. Well right now I am still a little confused....
Let the games begin
OK now that the Olympics are over, I guess there is another set games being launched and that’s the political games… God help us. And yes the media coverage will be about the same wall to wall coverage as we saw with the Olympics, but not as much fun.
I understand how politics work for the most part - but really how can a person stand up for almost a year straight and criticize the...

Russia heats up and I'm not talking about the...
Things are heating up big time with Russia and I’m not talking about the Olympics. As a matter of fact they are doing rather poor in the games compared to other years. So I’m talking about heating up with what could be a new cold war. I blogged about this a few days ago and so I have been watching this closely… remember we are in the end-times and I personally believe the...
Holy Bat-President!
Well and so it all begins with this presidential race thing huh? The candidates know people are getting home from vacation, schools are starting back and Olympics are drawing to a close - so let the “real games” begin… the crazy ads, rhetoric, etc.
Of course with Batman all the rage right now - does it surprise you both men mention him as their favorite super-hero? Check this...

Ezekiel’s bones are beginning to rattle again.
I have been watching the news with great curiosity when it comes to this Georgia and Russia thing. As most of you know I was in Georgia just a few months ago and even in the town of Gori which was heavily bombed.
Well this little incursion by the Russians has not surprised me at all – and I have said for several years to keep your eyes on Putin and his puppet leadership team. Can I just say...

When will we learn
Well I am writing this at the break of dawn on last day of a great vacation with my family… it’s been a blast. Now one of the things I love to do when on vacation is read. So I have already made my way through a John Grisham book about some football player in Italy and last night was putting the final touches on a book about the life of golfer Payne Stewart.
As you are probably...

Sons of Shepherds and Truck Drivers
For the last several days I have been once again reading through 1 and 2 Samuel and enjoying gleaning insights from the life of King David. I love the way the Bible presents him as such an incredible superstar and yet so human and fallible. These amazing books trace his almost every step and show both his ups and of course his downs. Yesterday as I read from 2 Samuel 6-8… I love the part...
Nothing new under the sun!
Listen there’s nothing new under the sun!
The last several days I have been reading a book by the famous Frank Bartleman called Azusa Street. Of course it’s his eye-witness account of what happened during the 1906 Los Angeles outpouring of the Holy Spirit and one of the most famous revivals that have ever occurred. He chronicled more about Azusa Street than any other writer, but was also so...
