Son of a Son of a Photographer?
Father’s Day is an interesting day in the U.S. calendar (see my rant on Father’s Day called Why I Don’t Like Father’s Day // Top 10 if you are so inclined). To me, as I am sure with others, it is a day of reflection as well as one to honor the father. We are…

A Real Life from Mother Teresa :: Quips
This is a small post series I started last week called Quotes and Quips (see last entry called Quotes and Quips // a Little Dirty Dinner) that is taken from small pieces that my mother-in-law saved or cutout and put in a binder. The binder was left to me when she passed away back in…

My Love of Baseball and Music Come Together :: Throwback Thursday
This is my latest installment for Throwback Thrusday from Vagabondrunn (see Throwback Thursday (7)). Yes, I finally was able to get some images of me.

Do We Choose Not to Be Blessed by God?
This general topic has been on my mind lately so I decided to write some of it down this morning, before I forgot what was actually in my head. I am going to leave this open ended to continue the discussion as we go, so this is part 1. Do We Allow God to Actually…

Thank You Deborah For 15 Years, I Love You
I rarely make such personal statements on my blog, but I thought it would be appropriate today for what truth is spoken and pronounced in public, becomes even more validating to me in private. So here goes. Today, Deb (see her blog) and I made it to our 15th year together (at least post marriage).…

The Dying Faith of the Youth of Our Country
I came across an article today called Faith No More, by Relevant Magazine, which talks about the dying faith of the twentysomething’s or the college age crowd. After reading the article I was amazed at how similar the discussion was to a book I just started reading called The Integrity of the Church, A Study…

The Church Body and the Internet, Part 2
This is a continuation of, The Church Body and the Internet, Part 1, on my blog discussion on the importance of the Church as a whole and how it uses the Internet. What is amazing is how fast things change. The text below was for the most part written around the same time that part…

Being able to do a photo shoot while listening to and participating in some great praise and worship music is pretty cool.
