Remember when Morpheus offers Neo the red pill? When he chooses it (over the blue pill), everything changes. The blinders come off. Neo begins to learn the truth about his existence, his potential, and the role for which he was created. I met with a local worship leader yesterday over coffee. We talked passionately about [...]
In case you missed it… (HT to stixblog!)
On January 2, 2010, I began the process of reading the Bible through in 90 days using the YouVersion.com online plan. If I stay on track, I’ll finish with Revelation 22 on April 2. There are certainly other ways to read the Bible other than ‘in 90 days’, but here are the reasons why I’m [...]
Re-evaluation and change is something I applaud. More quickly in others than myself perhaps… But as 2010 begins, I've resolved to the following commitments. I hope you'll join me.

Today, December 3 marks the birthdays of two influential people in the culture of my life. I've sent them both birthday wishes… Ozzy Osbourne, rock icon… and Jim Richards, Executive Director of the Southern Baptists of Texas Convention To [...]
george smoot: the design of the universe I originally found this video at TED and it blew my mind. Footage from the Hubble telescope… pictures that our ancestors only dreamed of… and the crazy possibilities that only a Master Creator could come up with. Watch and have your head swirl and your picture of the [...]
I used to run a little blog over here. (thank you, Zakk Wylde, for inspiration on the title). I took a little trip down amnesia lane this week and drifted through the pages.
