I take no credit for this analogy of faith, I picked it up from the spiritual guru Dr. Mulholland. So often, when we think of God filling us up, we see ourselves as a cup, right? We repeat the often spoken phrase from the 23 Psalm ”My cup runneth over.” And we picture it. We see [...]

Static Electricity
I don’t know what is going on, but every time I walk around the house and touch something I shock something. I turn on a light switch and zap. I reach for a doorknob and zap. I go to kiss Heather and zap. I don’t understand it. Heather says it is because I shuffle I [...]

The Other side of the Internet
I was listening to the radio when Chris Rice’s song “The Other Side of the Radio” came on the air. I have heard the song before, but today when I listened to it, it had a brand new message for me. Here are some of the lyrics:

Blogs I Read: Personal Edition

My New Year’s Resolution
I have had some people ask me about what my New Year’s Resolution, so I thought I would share it here. (Well actually, people haven’t asked, but I figure some of you might ask me, or if nothing else it is an acceptable question to ask and answer at the beginning of the year, but back [...]

Amazing Grace
We watched the movie Amazing Grace tonight. Good movie. Well make it a great movie. I’m a sucker though for movies that make a point, and even more so those that have a spiritual point. For those who don’t know about the movie, it is the story of William Wilberforce’s effort to abolish the slave trade [...]
