Some readers here knew Philip Berg, our friend in Jerusalem who passed away three years ago today. Martha has written a message about their situation and the Lord’s grace through difficult times.
One of the most important people in the last 19.4 years of my life is Doug Bookman. He started a blog recently, and today’s insightful post motivates me to point you to it. This type of blog is what blog readers were made for. If you check in every day, you ‘ll be disappointed. But subscribe to it in Google Reader (or similar) and you ‘ll be alerted whenever he posts next. I don’t think I know anyone who has more of value to say but won’t say it. At least where I can hear.
It is a curious fact of my life that many of the most influential people have last names that start with B.
December 1994. Planning meeting for a crazy dream of Bookman’s later known as “IBEX”
You know, “B” does seem to be an important recurring theme in your life. The most influential excavation team you have been privileged to know is Square B. Amazing.
I thought of that as I wrote that line, and it almost convinced me to delete it!
You may not know that a Square B’er was living in our house last week. I’ve learned that you can run, but you can’t hide.

Todd, thanks so much for sharing these two items! I remember Shevet Achim and Martha, so it was quite wonderful to read how they are doing. Also, Doug B has had a huge impact on the way I think and my Bible reading. So, his blog will be of huge benefit to me also! Thanks so much for sharing these two important items!!
Todd,
It seems that B’s also have had a big impact on my life – especially @ TMC…Bookman and Bolen
