We are doing a parenting course with 4 other couples we know – and it is chock full of great stuff. Last week’s lesson was called the Father’s Mandate. Just speaking mainly to dads about the importance, the significance, the magnitude of our role in our children’s lives. Dad is a very significant person in…

I went to the dentist today. And I had a cavity drilled out and fixed. My mouth still hurts from the huge needles inserted in my gums so that I wouldn’t feel any pain… (that is a funny sentence…) But, I am completely fixed now (no cavities) and thank to a cool lesson from the…

I finished the book of Job today… and they were talking about arrogance. Job was arrogant cause he said he was innocent. His friends were arrogant cause they seemed to know better than Job how he conducts his life. Elihu was arrogant cause he comes in as an outside observer (who is young, by the…

We’ve read all this before, so sometimes it’s hard to keep on reading… BUT… I just read some amazing stuff today that makes me want to keep reading. Do you remember…

Well, it’s that time of year again… January. And that means, that I am starting the One Year Bible again! 🙂 I tried last year and got through April, and then… well… got too far behind. SO, I am giving it a go again and reading all the crazy stories in Genesis again. One of…
