Here are a few things I’ve been thinking about this week: I had planned to explore this in depth, but I got way too far off-topic with what I was writing to even think about posting it. Here’s the condensed version: This week in the Wednesday night Bible class I’m teaching (3rd-5th grade), I had […]

Weekly Notes: February 8, 2008
The first week of February is in the books, so now you can get ready for Valentine’s Day next Thursday. Hopefully you take some time on days other than February 14th to make your special someone feel loved, though. I don’t exactly keep a list of things I never thought I would do, but later […]
Weekly Notes: January 31, 2008
I’ve gone a bit light on the blogging lately, but I do have a few things to share. Unfortunately, none of them is a college basketball Top 25 list. I’ve been following some blog activity this week about [HU Prof.] Flavil Yeakley’s presentation on youth in the churches of Christ, which he made on January […]
Friday Notes: September 14, 2007
I only have a few things to discuss before you spend the weekend glued to your TV: Saturday morning, before the college football schedule gets underway, East Brainerd Church of Christ is hosting the Walk for Honduras at Pointe Corporate Center in Chattanooga. Aside from allowing me the opportunity to break some kind of record for […]
Friday Notes: June 15, 2007
Here’s a little bit of what’s going on in my world: Melissa and I gave in and bought an HDTV last weekend, a Vizio 42″ model with 720p resolution. I was suitably impressed with the combination of decent reviews and an excellent price point (from Sam’s Club). Other than my house, it’s probably the single […]
Entering the world of social investing
From time to time, I think about the four years I spent at Harding and wonder when everything in this world is going to make sense to me. I mean, that’s why I went to college, right? So everything would make sense? Well, it doesn’t, and it probably never will, but I do feel somewhat […]
Friday Notes: June 8, 2007
In lieu of a post about the Braves’ relievers (I’ll do that next week), I’ll mention a few other goings-on. VBS – June 11-13 If you live in the Chattanooga area and need something for your kids to do next week (or, more aptly, need something better for them to do), I suggest Vacation Bible […]
Tackling the tough issues and moving on
I’ve been out of college for over a year now, which means that I’m working 8-5 and no longer going to Bible classes almost every day. In some ways, I miss that, and in others, I don’t. I love tackling the big issues that come up in Bible discussions, probably because of my competitive nature. […]
Review: "Oh! Gravity" by Switchfoot
Meta note: This is my first attempt at a style of review that makes more sense to me than what I’ve done occasionally in the past. While I don’t feel qualified to criticize the musical content of most recordings, that’s not the only important aspect to me when I’m listening to music myself. Hopefully this type […]
Might as well listen to Howard Stern
There are a lot of people in my part of the country who listen to Rush Limbaugh every day. While even they might agree that he’s not exactly a pillar of conservative thought, at least in theory, they see him as someone who really speaks the way they feel. That time has hopefully come and […]
