[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iI8lo5vnX-A&w=400&h=324] I found this story of two German college age men to be amazing! Astounding really. They sold themselves into slavery so they could take the good news of Jesus to a group of 3000 slaves. They really challenge me. If you want more info on the Moravian movement and how it is effecting us today you can start here:… Read more →

Here are two of her poems… Read more →

This is the sky I saw as Anna and I walked out the door this morning. Frost was everywhere and although it took me five minutes or so to scrape the car windows I enjoyed it very much. I love to see the intricacy of branches in the winter sky. It reminds me how complicated life can be but also… Read more →
Walking along the buffet table with the extended family loading up my plate I thought, “Wow, this the glutton’s holiday.” So I said to my father-in-law, “I wonder how many American Holidays we can connect to the seven deadly sins. We have Thanksgiving for gluttony.” He shot back with, we have labor day for sloth. My sister-in-law said that self… Read more →
