I’m off for the weekend to Lake Texoma. Try and guess where that is. No, it’s not anywhere close to Texarkana. And it’s a very far distance from Texico. I’m sure glad that Texas doesn’t share a border with Wisconsin. Does the kibbutz have a future? The Jerusalem Post looks backwards and forwards on the… Read More »
This month you can get the audio book by John Piper for free at ChristianAudio.com. If you haven’t registered already, it’s worth registering because they give away a free book every month. With the exception of last month’s offering, they are usually good. If you have used their services before and found them clunky, be… Read More »

This afternoon I received in the mail the page proofs for a 2011 calendar featuring my photos. My pictures have been used in half a dozen calendars over the years, but this calendar is spectacular. It’s large (as calendars go), has a large photo as well as a smaller inset photo, and covers… Read More »
A friend of ours at church has a lease on a ranch northwest of Dallas. We had a good time. I ‘ll let the pictures speak for themselves. I ‘ll admit here publicly, for the sake of one of my friends, that I saw parts of Texas that were beautiful.
One of our boys asked me today what my favorite verse is. For Awana, he has to ask 10 Christians this question and then write down his own. This is a tough question for me, especially now. But I gave him one of my favorites. I ‘ll quote the preceding verse for context. (And God… Read More »
