Duets

I love an interesting/good musical duet. That’s especially true when you get artists together that don’t usually go. Crossroads on CMT usually does a good job at creating this situation. That’s where I first saw James Taylor and The Dixie Chicks sing together and that YouTube video inspired this post. What [...]

Viva Obama!

I heard this on the radio this morning and Pat saved me from having to look for it.

Weirdness and Good Food

Well day one of my assignment in St. Gabe is going well. The gentleman that’s the representative on site has done a tremendous job of having everything centrally located. The site itself, a building that’s been here since ’91 but that’s been sitting largely vacant for two months or more in the Louisiana [...]

If you’re interested in helping please [...]

Q&A: Barack Obama w/ Christianity Today

Obama says “I believe in the redemptive death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.” and addresses abortion and the lies going around via email. It’s brief, but worth reading. He’s gotten a lot of flack over a lack of substance and being a “newby” and you know what? I get that, I really [...]
