Blogging has been an introspective experience in some ways for me. I started blogging on a whim, never expecting to still be writing a year later - and not knowing or understanding how the experience would effect me. I created a cyber personality - and called myself Sal. While I wanted to [...]

I am the world’s worst outside Christmas decorator.
We have a dilemma in our house. Neither of us like to do the outside of the house. We like it nice and Christmasy with lights and all, but Gil doesn’t like to do it and I physically struggle with doing it. I’ve [...]

Okay folks, I love my iPod, finally, again.
We got one back around tax time. We got our return which mostly went to pay of debt. Gil said, “Get something fun.” So I got an iPod. I never really understood completely what they were before I got one. We also got [...]

Today I got some time alone. The big kids and Gil were on the links and Bump was sawing logs. I had buttoned up my Thanksgiving dinner to a point. Now it was just wait until the bird comes out and then the mad dash to get all the fixings together. [...]

2 Corinthians 1:3 NIV

Okay, technically on the trail. I ran today, for a full 30 minutes. If I’d run any further, I’d probably come up limping or something. As it is, my thighs are burning. Okay, just one, but it hurts and it’s not even overnight yet. Wait until tomorrow. Bump will [...]

Read Part 5.
I must admit that I am having a difficult time with this series because my relationship with God has changed so much in the last year. The place that I came to find Jesus is so far from the place I am now. As the church I went to that bright [...]

Read Part 4.
I am quite remiss in continuing this series. It’s such a good story, but where I am right now with everything kind of steals the thunder - not God’s thunder, of coarse - no one could steal that.
Where was I…oh, yes it was a charismatic church.
I was not unfamiliar with the charismatics. [...]

It’s been 20 years, I realized. The summer after I graduated from high school, I met “Sam” and his friends. He had just graduated from the area’s public school, and I from the Catholic school. Although we had been confirmed in the same class three years previous, we never knew one another. [...]

It’s already been going on for about a month now, the one thing that makes my favorite time of the year a little bittersweet. Yes, it’s the incredibly gaudy, tacky and yucko benucko….Halloween.
Now everybody is probably thinking - oh you hard line Christians and Halloween - get over it. Well becoming a Christian [...]
