This Actually is My 20,000th Tweet This post is actually going to mark my 20,000th tweet on Twitter since I joined back on November 1st, 2007. Over that period of 5 years I have tweeted approximately 10 times a day, from 3 different countries, on 3 different continents, posted approximately 1,000 original images, and 1,000…
The more I try to learn and understand how prose and poetry works, the more I realize that I can't recapture the the years of ignoring virtually all literature from my childhood. It's like starting in grade school again and working your way up, only now you don't have time to do so because of…
How much do we write that has meaning and longevity today? While we aren't, and can't, all be Mark Zuckerberg (see Mark Zuckerberg and the Biblical Meaning of Success), it got me thinking about the value (and noise) we add when it comes to our photos, videos, and our writing today. Much like photography when…
This is my first actual post on this blog, so titled Religitic, in a while. The title I chose years and years ago for the life we Christians sometimes lead, one that is partly spiritual, partly heretical, and often mostly hypocritical. Therefore, I combined heretic, and hypocrite, with religion and got Religitic. The walk of…
Can we really know the true meaning of Christianity today? The answer of course, is an emphatic yes, of course we can, but the answer always seems to change depending on who you ask. Our culture is filled with blogs and news articles like the CNN "Belief Blog" and the Washington Post "On Faith" section, which…
I think it has literally taken me a few years to adjust to Sunday being a work day, and I have grown to absolutely love late Sunday afternoons after all the services and meetings are over. It's one of those few times during the week I get (usually) a few quiet uninterrupted hours to spend…
I love this shot of Jason, Eddie (our driver in Uganda), and myself. If you are holding a machete in the middle of the woods-jungle I think it's a rule, you have to stop to have a photo taken. Jason and I were attempting to clear a few branches away for a lady who lived…
It's Friday, and since we didn't go anywhere exciting today other than to drive over to Columbus, my Friday Feet pic is rather boring, but there were some "great" church signs along the way as usual. I have a pretty additive habit-hobby of church sign reading, sometimes it's just like train wreck TV, you just…
One of the things I love about our particular church is that we are always talking about reaching the unreached... reaching deeper into the community of Auburn and Opelika trying to find ways to bring the Gospel to those who haven't heard the Good News (a command throughout the New Testament I might add). One…
After months of looking at "Radical: Taking Back Your Faith from the American Dream" by David Platt, i finally decided i had to go ahead and read this book. Having read and studied several books and/or articles that discuss the concepts and failings of what we call the "American Dream", I already had my own…
