Descent

Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

It’s back, and it’s better than ever. Well, almost.
For the longest time now, I’ve been hankering to play Descent like Shawn, Jonathan, Brent, and I (among others) did back in our college days. We spent altogether too much time playing that silly game, but man was it fun stuff. Spaceship-flying first-person-shooter type [...]

that matt guy

Sunday, July 23rd, 2006

If you haven’t seen this guy’s video, then watch it here. He quit his job three years ago to travel the world, and a friend suggested that he videotape his silly dance everywhere he went … so he did. Now he’s been interviewed by Good Morning America and has a gum company sponsorship… [...]

suicide Greek

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

It has begun.
They call this “suicide Greek” because it’s a full year of New Testament Greek compressed into five weeks of class. We’ve met twice now, yesterday and today, so I guess that means there are only 23 more days left.
I’m loving it … it’s been a while since I worked on [...]

affirmation

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

A week ago last Sunday (July 9) was our first wedding anniversary… hard to believe that it’s really been one full year already.
I had the opportunity to preach twice that Sunday – once in the morning and once in the evening. This was the first time I have preached since just before our wedding [...]

how people get here

FYI, I’ve decided to maintain a separate page for all of the internet searches that have brought people to this blog. Click the link to the right entitled “how people get here” every so often for updates!

good Indians stuff, this time

Friday, July 7th, 2006

The ups and downs of mediocre baseball never cease to thrill me … that is, the ups never cease to thrill me. This might actually be more fun because Cleveland doesn’t win all the time.
Tonight, the Indians beat the Orioles 9-0 with a three-hit shutout by C.C. Sabathia. Points of interest:

All three Orioles’ [...]

Mariology

Wednesday, July 5th, 2006

I’ve been reading a bit of Mariology (study of Mary, Jesus’ mother, as an important religious figure) in Aquinas lately… and this Sunday I’m going to be preaching on Mark 6:1-13, which refers to the existence of Jesus’ brothers and sisters. Those who would support the theory of the perpetual virginity of Mary would [...]

utter disappointment

Saturday, July 1st, 2006

So my parents, Randy, Carrie, Tara, and I all went down to Cincinnati to watch the Reds/Indians game last night. After a five-run top of the first inning for the Tribe, my dad and I were feeling pretty good about things. Starter Paul Byrd pitched six innings of shutout baseball, and the lead [...]
