Just got back from NYC/Boston and will be updating soon. Pizza, fist fights, backyard baseball, and sunburns… Stay tuned!

Have you ever listened to music that simultaneously makes you want to praise God you have ears to hear, yet turn it off because the sheer beauty and majesty the music possesses is almost too much for the human soul to handle? Yeah, me neither.

Slogan in most desperate need of an overhaul: “Persnickety people. Exceptional cheese.”

David Hasselhoff referring to NY: “It’s like Sinatra said, ‘if you can’t make it here, you can’t make it anywhere!”

Frank Sinatra referring to NY: “If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.” Oh Hoff, how wrong you are.

Has anyone seen the new U.S. Cellular commercial? The one with the smiling man on a cell phone walking through the streets of a big city? He smiles and everyone smiles back at him. The tagline of the spot is, “the world is full of beauty.” I am inspired by this commercial as I believe it reveals something of the way God has created the human heart. We, as God’s image bearers, are crafted to enjoy and desire beauty. Thank you, Jesus.

I’l explain more later on the “Big Blog,” but read these lyrics from “Rivers of Babylon”:

By the rivers of Babylon,
Where he sat down,
And there he went
For he remembered Zion.

So let the words of our mouth
And the meditations of our hearts

Be acceptable in thy sight over I.

David Hosselhoff + Mario Lopez + NBC programming in the past 12 hours = too much toolage to handle.

From the Lutheran Confession of Faith: “Jesus Christ is the Word of God incarnate, through whom everything was made and through whose life, death, and resurrection God fashions a new creation.” Lutheran or not, that kicks serious ass.

As you’ll see, I’ve added a few things to the site, including all my social media links! Also, we’ve refreshed the “About.” page… Check them out!

A quick aside from normal programming. A chance to update more quickly, more often!
