Old Testament God Vs. New Testament God

September 21, 2007

I came across an interesting question by a member of a forum I frequent related to the community I live in. They asked the question, “Why is God so different in both testaments? (Bible – Old and New)” They provided no other details as to what they were referring to, however I’d make a pretty [...]

September 21, 2007

Sounds like a weird story – a man suing the Almighty. I hear it happens quite often. In this situation, Nebraska State Senator, Ernie Chambers, is suing God for making terroristic threats against the senator and his constituents, inspiring fear and causing ‘widespread death, destruction and terrorization of millions upon millions of the Earth’s inhabitants.’ [...]

The Brevity of Life

You just never know when your number is going to come up. We as humans can endure so many trials, hardships, sickness, and the like, however sometimes what seems like nothing can take us out. A blow to the head, choking on a small object, a simple sickness that turns fatal, or as in Cecil [...]

I’m a huge fan of Disneyland, the original theme park and as such am as much interested in its history and secrets as visiting it in person. I have visited the park a total of eight times as of the writing of this post and yet there are still places I have not been and [...]

Very Good Shiraz At A Decent Price – Jakes Fault

September 5, 2007

We have been enjoying a really decent Shiraz called Jakes Fault which we get at the local Trader Joe’s for about $5 a bottle. You would think that at $5 a bottle you’d sacrifice taste and experience but not so with this wine. It’s the kind of Shiraz that goes great with the evening meal [...]

How To Buy a Classic Car For Half Price

September 5, 2007

I love telling this story. A couple of years ago, me and my wife (well actually it was mostly me) got a wild hair and decided to buy our son, who was 18 at the time, his first car – a 1968 Ford Mustang. That ended up being a decision I’d regret but that is [...]

I’m Addicted to Tom Kha Gai Soup
