What a wonderful town

New York, New York…a wonderful town. The Bronx is up, and the Battery is down. The people all ride in a hole in the ground. New York, New York: what a wonderful town!
Yes, I’m on vacation and in New York with my dad and brother. Never been to the east coast before, so this is […]

YouVersion

Just got a notification that YouVersion is now available as a public beta! It’s a Web 2.0 app created by LifeChurch.tv that treats Bible verses as content items that can be shared and discussed. Give it whirl…I’ll review it once I’ve had some time to play with it.

Asides test

I completely forgot about a feature I implemented in the blog template: asides! Silly me. Here’s my first public test….

New cat coming to town: Mac OS X Leopard

For those of you who are Mac fanatics, like me, you’re no doubt chomping at the bit to get your grubby little hands on the next version of Mac OS X: 10.5 Leopard. It’s slated to be released in October, and knowing Apple, I think they’re probably going to pick the evening of the last […]

“I’m just a ****ed up girl who’s looking for my own peace of mind.”
I think that is the heart’s cry of the postmodern world. We’re fast […]

Interesting ideas from IMC

I heard about the Internet Ministry Conference by way of Church Relevance, and these two posts of recap notes featured some extremely beneficial information that I found to be both challenging and inspiring.

Churches blessing churches

I had the most incredible experience last night. A local church in Santa Rosa invited our church to come enjoy an evening of worship and fellowship, so a number of us trekked across town to join in on the festivities. Since I’m on the worship team, I was extremely privileged to play music not only […]

Bored? Life wasn’t meant to be boring

Is there a price to pay for getting whatever you want and having whatever you need? There most certainly is, and it’s called boredom. And apparently boredom is one of the unfortunate outcomes of our overstuffed, overfed, consumerist Western lifestyle.
Reading this article about the modern phenomena of boredom, I recall the stories I’ve heard of […]
