If it’s Wednesday, I’m in the air headed for Thailand. A friend offered me the opportunity to attend a conference with her there, and given the “flexibility” of my schedule at present, it seemed like a great option. (And thanks to the guys who are house-sitting, and my awesome neighbors who are on “neighborhood watch”… Continue reading on a jet plane
It’s been quite awhile since my last update on life. And holy cow has God been dealing with crap in my life. It’s a crazy dichotomy of nothing new – a relentless boredom of sameness, and the sneaking suspicion that in ways only perceptible to him things are also changing and going forward. Almost two… Continue reading staying forward
It can be argued that single people have a lot more freedom than married people – freedom to focus on a career, travel, to use the remote, to spend or save discretionary income. There’s also freedom to date, which can be either a lot of fun or a royal pain in the you-know-what, depending on… Continue reading types of men
No, I’m not talking about Charlton Heston. In fact, ABC’s Nightline recently launched a series on The Ten Commandments. The perspectives are remarkably balanced, though rather than going through the commandments chronologically, they opted to start with #7 – thou shalt not commit adultery – obviously a “sexier” way to kick off a new series.… Continue reading tv & the 10 commandments
It really is an age-old question, one I suspect men ask each other to explain the mysteries of the opposite sex: Why do women go to the bathroom in groups? There are a lot of theories, from battling over the cutest guy, (oh please) to comparing notes about their dates, (can you say paranoid?) to… Continue reading we go together
In the ongoing discussion about male and female “roles” both at home and in the church, I recently received one of the simplest arguments in favor of equality that I’ve heard. It came in an e-newsletter I received this week, written by Christians for Biblical Equality President Mimi Haddad. Since I couldn’t find the article… Continue reading equality in Christ
I am constantly fascinated by the interactions which take place between men and women – both single and married. I seriously respect the complimentary differences God created in men and women. But I do enjoy providing some humorous views of those God-ordained differences. For example, I find men to be funny, quirky, remarkable, and often… Continue reading vive le difference
Cultivate Her is a new leadership environment focused on encouraging and developing women leaders. Right now, it meets monthly at Cross Point Church in Nashville, Tennessee. This recap of one of the first meetings includes a promotional video, as well as video of a discussion on women as “Bullies.” I think this is an incredible… Continue reading cultivate her
I spent today at Biola University at the Christian web conference, which continues tomorrow. Turns out, this is an expanded version of GodBlogCon, the first Christian blog conference of its kind back in 2005, which has evolved to include social networking and interactive media. Here are a few snapshots. Tim Challies spoke on Ephesians 4:15:… Continue reading christian web conference
So it’s been awhile since we’ve had a frank discussion about sex, and today I find myself “in the mood” (pun intended). To be more specific, rather a discussion about the fine art of not having sex, if you’re a single disciple of Jesus, or just a woman of higher than average intelligence. What brought… Continue reading cows, cars, shoes, relationships
