That was different. I seldom have felt such a sensation. Maybe during my brief football two-a-days experience as a person 1/3 of my current age?

Somewhere in a lonely hotel room There’s a guy starting to realize That eternal fate has turned it’s back on him. It’s 2am…. It’s 2 am The fear is gone I’m sitting here waiting… Maybe my connection Is tired of taking chances Yeah, there’s a storm on the loose Sirens in my head Wrapped up [...]

…and spiritual disciplines: don’t let me neglect spiritual disciplines. Matthew 19:23-25 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it is very hard for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. I’ll say it again—it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for [...]
Too much is not enough, Part Duex

We had a great message tonight from an expert in Bible translations. He commented on how the Bible remains a best seller every year, and then said something ironic and thought provoking: “I’m glad someone is buying them, but I wonder what they are doing with all of them, because they’re not reading them”. And [...]

Frank Navasky: She fell in love with Generalissimo Franco! Kathleen Kelly: No, don’t say that. Really. We don’t know that for sure. Frank Navasky: Well, who else could it have been?

As referenced in last night’s post, I encountered a team of people during my early morning jog on the beach yesterday. They were a clean, well dressed, polite looking bunch.

I went jogging on the beach this morning. Go ahead: begin humming the tune from “Chariots of Fire” here.
