Ordinary Wednesday?

Wednesday is sometimes called “hump day”. It’s an ordinary hum-drum day in the middle of the week that seems long. If we can get through it then the rest of the week is easy, or so goes the thinking.
If I make this an “ordinary” day, nothing will change in my world. This may seem pretty [...]


Yosemite Fires Bring Me a Reminder

This AP story shows a what is happening near Yosemite National Park. That park is just a few hours from where we live. In fact, we will actually be there next week on vacation.
We love the beauty of God’s creation. We will be doing some 4-wheeling, reading, watching sunsets, and once again we will visit [...]


What are You the King of?

We all want to be first. We want to be king of something. And for some people, unfortunately, that’s ALL that MATTERS.
What’s incredible with that is it is never enough no matter the quantity or even the visibility of power that one may become.
We see it if we reference the life of Solomon in the [...]


Call a Friend Today

A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be refreshed.     - Proverbs 11:25 (NIV)
This encouraging Proverb says a lot. WHENEVER I do this it seems that it does something deep inside. We are all created in God’s image. The author of love is not a bad blueprint, if you ask me. Go [...]


The Book of John in the Bible

Incredible! That’s about the only way to describe the talk given today by my friend Jonathan Gainsbrugh. His blog is at MarkOfTheFeast.com .
The book of John is much different than Matthew, Mark, and Luke. It is often referred to new followers of Christ to get them started just after making that life-changing decision. The thing [...]

iPhone Will Meet RevTim on Friday

I think it’s a good match — and I have been waiting for a year for this to happen. On Friday, when the iPhone 3G is launched, I will be in line. I will pick mine up at the Apple store in Emeryville, California. It is just 10 minutes from my house or so.
I’m trying [...]


Everybody Loves a Duck Photo

I took this pic of a duck on the Rock River in Rockford, Illinois. More photos of mine can be found at my Flickr site. Taken with my Nikon D80. Comments?


Amazing California Fire Fighters

You just have to check this site at the Boston Globe. They have put together a collection of incredible photos of the California fires that are blazing away this summer. Smoke has been constantly in the air here in the San Francisco Bay Area for weeks now.

Taste Test REPOST

I finally got the audio working so the music track and speaking track would both come through. I had to convert it to MONO in order for it to work.
This is a video that I made used to illustrate the basic idea of seaching for answers in life. Let me know what you thought of [...]


July 4 — Fireworks — and Jesus!

It’s the 4th of July weekend here in the USA. It represents FREEDOM.
I love that word, FREEDOM. And I have experienced it first-hand. I have enjoyed this freedom in my work, with my family, on holidays, and in my spiritual walk as well. I have learned a lot about what the term means.
When I think [...]
