From the Moon and Everything
I like bragging about my kids. God says we are supposed to, but I am grateful my kids make it easy. My daughter Bekah has now released a line of fabric designs, and went to a big convention in Salt Lake City a few weeks ago. Everybody who was anybody was all like, you know, …
Tell Him to Quit It
Jesus is always the one who surprises. We think we know what piety and devotion are . . . until Jesus tells us to do the opposite. “Then said he unto the disciples, ‘It is impossible but that offences will come: but woe unto him, through whom they come! It were better for him that …
Fill In Details Later

Big Doings at the Nuart
If you are in the Moscow area tomorrow night (that would be Saturday, May 14, 2011, for those of you reading this in the archives three years from now), I would like to invite you to the Nuart Theater to watch the DVD of the Logos Benefit Concert. That video has now been edited, courtesy …
