ODDS AND ENDS - Thursday, January 31st 2008 12:59 PM
PRIMARILY SPEAKING... With each primary result, each party's race seems to be shoring up. By now John Edwards is gone on the Democrat side, and the Republicans have recently...
DOWNTOWN! THINGS WILL BE GREAT WHEN YOU'RE DOWNTOWN... - Wednesday, January 23rd 2008 10:44 AM
This past Saturday John McCain pulled a mild surprise when he took South Carolina. He must not be considered the front-runner without question. This is unfortunate because if he...
I'M HAVING A HARD TIME UNDERSTANDING WHY -- CAN YOU HELP ME? - Saturday, January 19th 2008 2:14 PM
The results from Michigan are slightly disheartening for me as a Huckabee fan. Not that Mr. Romney scored a "big" win -- 9 points -- nor that he won several distinct categories...
FEELING STUPID? THIS SHOULD HELP - Wednesday, January 16th 2008 12:35 PM
It's a fact of real life that there are some really stupid people. I suppose it's also a sad fact that we are sometimes them. It doesn't just happen to the best of us, but to...
I LIKE MIKE - Wednesday, January 9th 2008 12:52 PM
Well, it certainly seems that I've been away for a while. It only seems that way because that's the way it's been. I have been away for a while, and at that I didn't get to make...
THE BLESSINGS OF CHRIST AT CHRISTMAS - Thursday, December 20th 2007 11:43 AM
Obviously it's been a while since I was able to make it to the library to get online and post a new journal entry. Through November I had hoped to maintain at least one entry a...
ISLAM, A RELIGION OF PEACE? BAH-HUMBUG! - Friday, December 7th 2007 3:58 PM
NOTE: This entry was written on Monday, December 3 and Tuesday, December 4, and posted online on Friday, December 7, 2007. By now you are undoubtedly familiar with the...
CONFESSION TIME - Tuesday, November 27th 2007 3:22 PM
NOTE: This was written on Monday, November 26 and posted online on Tuesday, November 27. I'm feeling kind of tired tonight. Not having a set schedule doesn't help, of course,...
A COUPLE OF THOUGHTS, AND SOME THANKS - Tuesday, November 20th 2007 3:22 PM
FIRST...The old adage that you should never judge a book by it's cover is wise counsel indeed. A new book has come out from Ligonier Ministries which purports to be a new...
DISJOINTED - Tuesday, November 13th 2007 11:47 AM
I had been wondering what I might write about here for our next e-visit. It came to me in a flash this past Sunday: I was recently very badly disjointed, if we can define...
THE DARKER WING OF THE HALL OF FAITH - Tuesday, November 6th 2007 4:14 PM
Hebrews 11 is known by many commentators and Bible teachers as "God's Hall of Faith," something of a play on words with the world's idea of having a "Hall of Fame." And I...
ARE YOU LISTENING? - Tuesday, October 30th 2007 4:00 PM
Are you listening? How well? I don't know of any pastor who has proclaimed God's Word for a long enough period of time -- and some for even a relatively short period of time...
A MESSAGE TO DEFEATED CHRISTIANS - Saturday, October 27th 2007 11:24 AM
A couple of weeks ago I received an email and at first I didn't know what to make of it. I know that the sender wasn't targeting me specifically, but it was very possible...
SURPRISE, SURPRISE! STUDY TIPS - Wednesday, October 24th 2007 3:05 PM
NOTE: This entry was written on Oct. 23 and posted online on Oct. 24. I'm sure many of you are simply shocked that I've actually been able to post two days in a row! I know, I...
"FRUSTERATIONS" - Tuesday, October 23rd 2007 3:30 PM
NOTE: This journal entry was written on Oct. 22 and posted online on Oct. 23. Yes, I know it's misspelled. It's how my young children have often pronounced the word when...
JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE ALL THE WAY... - Tuesday, October 2nd 2007 4:32 PM
NOTE: This entry was written and posted on Oct. 2. When I used to do my "Pastor for the Day" radio devotions I got into the habit of saving ideas which might make a good 3...
TINY, BITE SIZED MORSELS - Tuesday, September 25th 2007 4:04 PM
NOTE: This entry was composed on Sep. 21 and posted online on Sep. 25. I suppose if I was going to use a sports analogy for today's entry, I would say it's going to be...
A GOOD QUESTION TO CONSIDER - Wednesday, September 19th 2007 3:08 PM
PLEASE NOTE: This journal entry was written on Sep. 17-18, and posted online on Sep. 19. My life as of late is quite different in many respects from my life when I was still...
PAINFUL PERSPECTIVE, POINTING TO A PURPOSE - Monday, September 10th 2007 3:09 PM
NOTE: This entry was written on Sep. 8 and posted online on Sep. 10. Yesterday was hot, the kind of a hot day you sometimes get late in Summer, as if to remind you it really is...
SAILING ALONG AT A SNAIL'S PACE - Thursday, September 6th 2007 3:44 PM
NOTE: The following entry was written on September 5th and posted to the web on September 6th. My last entry spoke of ambiguity and perspective. To be honest -- Which was the...
AMBIGUITY AND PERSPECTIVE - Friday, August 31st 2007 3:46 PM
Ambiguity can be a disconcerting thing, but not usually for too long, since perspective generally clears it right up. You might have to work or study many hours, only to fall...
A NOTE TO MY FRIENDS - Monday, August 27th 2007 2:58 PM
Dear friends, I’m still offline and haven’t really had a chance to make entries as we still have quite a ways to go before we are really settled in to our “new” (former)...
"MO-VIN'..." - Saturday, August 18th 2007 9:16 AM
NOTE FROM REV. TIM -- I'm back. Sort of. It still may be quite a long time before I have internet service at home. We don't even have our own phone yet! So I am availing myself...
WHAT TIME IS IT? - Saturday, July 28th 2007 11:46 AM
Here I sit in my office -- one of the last times I will sit in this office -- the pastor's office at Colosse -- as it is one of the last times I will occupy the office of...
AND NOW, THE END IS NEAR - Thursday, July 26th 2007 11:00 PM
Today much of what we've packed has been moved or is on the truck tonight waiting to be moved in the morning. We still have a long way to go. But some of the rooms are...
