I spend more time on my computer(s) than anywhere else, and I have found some very useful tools that I thought I’d tell you about. All of them are free or have free versions, and all of them work in Windows. Everything – I am starting with this one because it’s both my newest discovery… Read More »
If you ‘re planning to do much work in the Gospels, you might want to take a look at this commentary compiled from the Church Fathers by Thomas Aquinas. Until Friday, this 8-volume work is available for Logos for only $16. On Sunday they blew up the old Dallas Cowboys stadium and my friend Eric… Read More »
Guy in his mid-30s moves to Plano, Texas to attend Dallas Theological Seminary but his website takes off and he has little time for school. This AP article is not about me and BiblePlaces.com, but about GodTube.com. He started in August and I started 6 Augusts ago, but he probably got more visitors last month… Read More »
This might be something that could be useful to some of the readers here. But you have to be a bit forward-thinking.

I suggested a course of action to resolve this problem, and it made me think that others might benefit from this short lesson. Do not do this if you like advertisements that flash in your… Read More »
The Jewish year 5767 begins on Friday night, which according to biblical reckoning is the first day of the seventh month, the Feast of Trumpets. Google has gotten into the spirit with a cool graphic on the Google Israel page. Elsewhere, I found a page that makes it easy to search Google’s various categories. It’s… Read More »
Continued from last week, here’s #3. 3. Not making a regular backup of your data files. This is actually the point that provoked these posts. This isn’t important in the same way that the previous two points were important, but it is important in a different way, and it must not be ignored. The reason… Read More »
This post is not about what you might expect to hear – the standard sins mentioned in sermons and such. Things like time-wasting, gossip, violating copyright law, pornography, and rude behavior are serious sins, but not the subject of my concern today. No, my concern probably affects more of computer users than the above, believe… Read More »
