memorial day...

Most of you may know that Lisa's brother spent two tours in Iraq with the Air Force. He's finished his service now, but I have never been the same or seen the war in Iraq the same way since I spoke to him after he returned. I cannot imagine living through some of the things he was exposed to over there. I take this day to remember those that have made the ultimate sacrifice in order to protect our freedom. The majority of those who serve are young men and women. My prayers go out to those still over there and elsewhere around the world. In this world of senseless violence that buys into the myth of redemptive violence, may we turn to follow Jesus' other way...

Check out Lisa's blogspot; she has a great memorial youtube video link for today...

Since we were talking about Revolution by George Barna, I thought this was an interesting post to see how many different impressions people can get from reading the same book...

I actually found out about Henderson when I read his book A.K.A. Lost.

Great convention that I attended in San Antonio. I came upon two links that I thought I'd share for those that are interested. The first is a letter to humanity from a ton of scientists written back in 1992 that got zero press. The second is a link to the website of a scientist, David Suzuki, on real ways that we can reduce our carbon footprint.

Although these individuals may have a different world view than most of us, I choose to react to the facts rather than ignore them, since one of the first and most basic tasks we have been given is to be good stewards of what we've been given, starting with God's creation...

Any guesses as to why Jesus' knees are bloody in this statue?

(HINT: I don't know the answer but I have some thoughts of my own)
