Steve McCoy has set up his blog at Reformissionary to update us through Molly’s Chiari surgery tomorrow morning at 10AM (Central).  You can follow on the blog or through Twitter. I started reading Steve’s blog a few years ago when I first started looking at the Emerging Church and the various names that were beingContinue reading “The Real McCoys”

OK, more news from the McCoys regarding the brain surgery that Molly is facing.  Well, it’s scheduled for this Friday.  You can read the entire post with more details here.  Please keep them in your prayers.  As I’ve said before, I’ve really enjoyed his blog (particularly the “Top 5” book lists he’s been collecting onContinue reading “Prayer Update Update”

I read this on Justin Taylor's site and had to share. Amen to this quote from Donald Macleod's The Humiliated and Exalted Lord, cited by Ligon Duncan: :Theology exists in order to be applied to the day-to-day problems of the Christian church. Every doctrine has its application. All scripture is profitable and all the doctrine isContinue reading “Robust Doctrine”

Fascinating program.  Fascinating concept.  Fascinating tour.  Thought you'd like to know. http://static.noisetrade.com/w/NTWidget.swf?wid=cf40f62c-ead4-4ad3-92a5-a740ac0c9ab1

This is a followup to an earlier post I wrote asking for prayer for the wife of a blogger I follow.  You can read more here.  To summarize, Molly suffers from a condition called Chiari Malformation for which she had brain surgery last year.  She was symptom free for almost a year and the symptomsContinue reading “Prayer Update”

I’ve been blessed, over the past few years since I started blogging, by several faithful bloggers, pastors and others who share words of blessing and edification and instruction, as well as their lives.  I’ve learned from and laughed and cried with them, though I’ve never met any of them, such is the mixed blessing ofContinue reading “A prayer request”

I’m always amazed when I hear that someone has worked for the same company for 25, 30, 40 years. It really amazes me. That someone could stay with the same company for such a long time, growing up, of sorts, in the same environment, to me, is quite an accomplishment.  Of course, the longest I’veContinue reading “Roots”

This evening, I saw “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.”  It was beautiful and magical.  I miss Narnia already and was so sad to be transported back to the train station with the Pevensie children.  I felt much of the same nostalgia/grief/pain as when I first saw the last scene of the final movie ofContinue reading “Prince Caspian”

Not that I’ve not been thinking of writing.  It’s just I’ve been busy.  I hate that excuse, too.  But I have been busy.  I’ve been involved over the past year with three different productions which meant going from auditions to rehearsals to performances… for a whole year.  It was a year ago this month thatContinue reading “It’s been a while…”

I took these two videos using my cell phone on Saturday while spending the weekend with my daughter and son-in-law.  The first is a video of Maseo doing his funny belly crawl.  He can walk all around the furniture and along the walls to get where he wants to go, but he just doesn’t haveContinue reading “Mother’s Day with Maseo”
