The Spirit Phaneroō in Tiberias :: Poem
Poetry is an interesting form of literature to me because of how extensively the writers of scripture used poetry to express God’s instructions, thoughts, and proclamations. I take no claim to being well read in poetry, quite the opposite, but if it was important to the writers of the Old and New Testament, and ultimately…

The Complete Egoist by Arthur Guiterman
I have tried over the years to reconcile the whole of what is social networking to how it helps or destroys the effort of devoting one’s life to the pursuit of God. Reading through a sermon written by a family member in 1976, I came across this poem by Arthur Guiterman called “The Complete Egoist”,…

A Father’s Love Letter to His Child :: Poem
I found this poem this morning and thought I would share it. Even though I haven’t posted to my blog in a while I still enjoy the world of blogging and everything that goes a long with it. The first few months of 2010 have been challenging, but it’s nice to finally see some warmer…

Frederick Lehman and The Love of God
Could we with ink the ocean fill, And were the skies of parchment made, Were every stalk on earth a quill, And every man a scribe by trade, To write the love of God above, Would drain the ocean dry. Nor could the scroll contain the whole, Though stretched from sky to sky. Frederick Lehman,…

In the Beginning, ARPA created the ARPANET
I love this quoted poem below. You probably won’t appreciate it unless you are a ham radio operator or understand the language but if you do, it’s quite something. In the Beginning, ARPA created the ARPANET. And the ARPANET was without form and void. And darkness was upon the deep. And the spirit of ARPA…

Why Jim Morrison and the Bible are Still Consumed
I love the music that comes from the mid to late 1960’s to mid 1970’s in the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Eric Clapton, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd and many more. It was at the very height of the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, and a time of great growth and pain in…

In the Beginning… God Created Code
Every so often I try to add in a little quote or quip posted in sidenotes. Usually a short piece that I get out of my mother-in-laws newspaper clippings she gave me. Funny how different people collect different things, papers, notes, and so on, most all of these I have never seem before and are…

The Truth in the Bible Still Survives from 1895 to Today
1896 in History :: So what was going on in 1896? Tonight we start the first part of a series of studies on how to study the Bible, called Journey Bible Class. Yesterday I picked up a Bible at a local store specifically to start using tonight, but I have about 30-35 Bibles here in…
