Well, a lot has been going on with me the past couple of weeks. I’ve been blogging and writing like crazy, and I still have been doing a lot of other things. I’m a little tired, so I’m going to tie up some loose ends and call it a week….
I’ve listened to a few UCG sermons recently that have impressed me. One is by Paul Luecke titled “Hub of Your Life“. In it, he points out that you can only have one center to your life, just as a wagon wheel can only have one hub. He jumps about…
In an interesting development, a US-based manufacturer of weapons, Trijicon, has been inscribing Bible references on their gunsights for years, according to the BBC “Gunsights’ biblical references concern US and UK forces”. Markings such as “JN8:12” are engraved into the sights by the company who claims to be a Christian…
I was excited to learn about SocialVibe, a website where a blogger/webmaster can get a badge to promote a charity that costs nothing to the users of the site. Basically, you can click on the badge once per day and a sponsoring organization pays a certain amount to the chosen…
Some of the comments about helping Haiti frankly aren’t worth the electrons forming them. It seems that some few believe that since they have always been a poor country unable to raise themselves up, they are not worthy of help. And, then, there comes MLK Day. King had a dream. …

It just seems like common sense to me. If you are going to do something, learn how to do it well. If you don’t know how to do it or do it well, then at least listen to the people who do. Some bloggers seem to think all they need…
Let’s lay aside for the moment some of the smaller theological issues, including the dissonant drumbeat about “governmental structure”, in the latest The Trumpet online article “How Practical Is Prophecy?” by Ryan Malone. Rather, let’s cut to the chase. Within chapters 12 and 13 [of 1Co 12], Paul is gearing…
I originally wasn’t going to post this, but since AW posted “COGs on the Internet”, it seemed appropriate to go ahead and do so. Alexa ratings have gotten some heat because some, such as Seth Godin, find them somewhat unreliable compared to Quantcast. Well, according to Godin’s article, there is…
Peter often gets a bad rap. It would be worthwhile if more COG leaders read John Maxwell’s The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership. We would all benefit if they all were more versed in the laws of respect and empowerment. Perhaps it would also be worthwhile to study a little…
