Summer Break
Notice that I said 'break,' NOT a vacation. This summer I am involved in several major projects that will take up most of my time. That means that I will not be able to make regular blogs on "Who Does God Think You Are?" But that doesn't mean I won't post. As things come up, … Continue reading Summer Break
Worth It Or What?
Source: Worth It Or What? There are times in life when anticipating something makes time travel at a snail’s pace, causing the excitement–or dread–to grow incrementally. When the experience happens, it’s over so fast it’s hard to imagine it ever happened at all. I waited years to go skydiving. Once I was given the gift … Continue reading Worth It Or What?
If You Jump, Know Where You’ll Land
I love this analogy. But jumping out of a perfectly good airplane . . . . .
What is the Bible?
Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. Psalm 119:105 (NIV) “I am busily engaged in the study of the Bible. I believe it is God’s word because it finds me where I am.” – Abraham Lincoln, 16th President of the United States, 1809-1865 When I was a child in Sunday School, … Continue reading What is the Bible?
Why Go To The Bible?

Enjoy A Cup Of Uniqueness
Enjoy this guest post from a good friend. Grown-up tea parties are throwbacks to days when little girls dressed up in their moms’ pretty dresses, put on big-girl lipstick, and drank lemonade from tiny teacups. The big girl variety is… Source: Enjoy A Cup Of Uniqueness
Who Do Atheists Thank on Thanksgiving?
Just wondering - who do atheists thank on Thanksgiving? They don't believe in the God of the Bible or any sort of Intelligent Designer.

Thanksgiving is a great holiday: time … Continue reading Who Do Atheists Thank on Thanksgiving?
Channeling My Mitty
Too bad it took me until about age 40 to learn this lesson.
Please enjoy this great post from my friend Dayle . . .
When you’re around babies, it’s easy to dream.
What will they be when they grow up? (I’m still asking myself that question.) What will they enjoy doing? What will they be good at?
Dreaming is the springboard to trying. It’s where we all begin and get past where we are. It’s hope with great potential.
With Huck in my arms and his folks out for some couple time, I watched The Secret Life Of Walter Mitty, starring Ben Stiller. The iconic movie of dreaming of a better life.
I watched Walter with a heart of compassion, as he zoned out, dreaming of what he might be. Fantasy was his default. Short-circuited by his lack of self-confidence, he endured his job. He was good at what he did–a negative assets manager at Life magazine. His attention to detail, his commitment to excellence in his job weren’t recognized or appreciated by…

So when someone in my office invited me to join her and some friends to see the new movie, Star Trek: Into Darkness, at the local 3-D Imax theater, I had to go. … Continue reading Into Darkness
