Obama’s New Stimulus Program: Family Planning and Nancy Pelosi
Thursday, January 29th, 2009Obama’s stimulus package is going through Congress and being debated. It’s been both praised and criticized. Though some rave about the brilliance of it, others question why it has hundreds of millions of dollars for family planning services tacked onto it.
Here is a video with Nancy Pelosi talking about why these family planning services are [...]

MercyMe: Finally Home. A dedication to our soldiers
Wednesday, January 28th, 2009I was just on my way home from a midwife appt. (We are in the end stretch of this pregnancy, so I’m having weekly appointments now. One little side note, apparently I have very impressive hemoglobin. That’s the first time I’ve even gotten that compliment!)
Anyway, on the way home a song came on the radio [...]
Pledging to Serve the Public Servant: Celebrities Need to Take a Civics Class
Tuesday, January 27th, 2009My brother in law sent me a link to this video:
His initial comments were about celebrities thinking just because they are celebrities, they’re qualified to dictate our actions and morals.
If you look a little deeper, but not too deep (these are pretty shallow people, even though they’re “involved”), you will find the biggest load of [...]
Barbecue for the Lord: Tasty Meat, Seasonings, and Sacrifice
Friday, January 23rd, 2009Before I was a Christian, I saw Abel’s sacrifice of livestock more pleasing to God than Cain’s grain as God taking favoritism on Abel. It wasn’t until much later that I realized that it was shown to me that it was only because Abel gave his choicest animal (showing real sacrifice) rather than Cain’s offering [...]

So Long, Circuit City. Don’t Let the Door Hit You on the Way Out.
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009You’ve probably already heard it by now: Circuit City (in the U.S.) is going out of business.
They could probably blame the failing economy because lots of people just don’t have the disposable income to spend on home electronics and car stereos. They also have made bad business decisions in the last year or two. But [...]
Farewell, George W. Bush. Welcome, Barack Obama.
Tuesday, January 20th, 2009A person would have to be pretty cut off from society to not know today is inauguration day. Two days ago I pored over Sunday’s paper, page after page was stacked full of pictures and articles about Obama. Some are excited and hopeful about the potential he’ll bring to this country, others are afraid, and [...]
The Story of Abraham and Sarah: The Great Family
Monday, January 19th, 2009A Godly Play Production
I just discovered a really neat video on youtube.com. The goal of the video is show how one church is using props and storytelling to deliver God’s message to children. I love creative processes, especially storytelling. I have some great memories of church when I was growing up. But this video makes [...]
