Thanks to Sony, I’m now two for two with laptop batteries that need to be replaced so that they don’t burst into flames in my lap. I already have a new battery on the way from Dell for my work laptop. Thankfully, I had a spare battery that isn’t in danger of incinerating my thighs, [...]
I’ve experimented a few times with an easy way to add a moblog, but never quite found what worked best — until now.
Shozu seamlessly grabss photos I take on my SDA and sends them to Flickr. WordPress then automatically puts those images in the righthand column of my blog thanks to a plugin called flickrrss. [...]

I’m sorry to say this, but too much of what we call Christian is not a manifestation of the supernatural life of God in our souls. Too much of what we [...]
Conrad Gempf emailed me to let me know that, with Zondervan’s permission, he is making Jesus Asked available for free in the form of a audio book/podcast. I’m subscribing.

I’ve learned a number of things from Rob Bell over the years, and you can see his ideas shrouded in my clumsy words throughout this blog. One very practical thing I learned from him became a reality today…
Several years ago, he mentioned that he got a weed burner for his birthday. I’d never heard of [...]
Last November, Joe Myers was talking about his new book, Organic Community, at the Off the Map conference here in Seattle. It was due out in the spring. I thought Joe’s previous book, The Search to Belong, had some good stuff to say, so I pre-ordered the new book from Amazon. A few weeks before [...]

“We need to emphasize that the Great Omission from the Great Comission is not obedience to Christ, but discipleship, apprenticeship, to him. Through discipleship, obedience will take care of itself, and [...]

Anyone else out there having trouble with Bloglines? When I click on some of my feeds, even though it says there are unread items, nothing shows up. I have confirmed by clicking through to the sites in question that there are new posts. I’d hate to see Bloglines become unreliable, because it’s been [...]
The Great Omission book study blog officially begins tomorrow. Feel free to join in or follow along!
