  1. Every thought, every word, every action takes you a little closer to God & life, or a little further away. Choose wisely. Choose life.
  2. The price people will pay just to fight to live a destructive way of life is - never mind the price of the way of life itself - is amazing.
  3. Spent some time teaching my 6 yr old how to hit a baseball today. Now he's with my wife & daughter at the mall learning how to shop. Oy!
  4. Well, Melissa UMC went down in our 2nd game as well, but we did manage to score 5 runs this time. Great tourney and much $$$ raised for MEF.
  5. My other team, Melissa UMC, just went down 15-0 in the MEF Softball Tourney. 0 for 2 in games and outscored 31-0. That's about right.
  6. So Melissa Rotary/Interact went down 16-0 in the MEF softball tourney this morning. But the lime green t-shirts were quite stylish.
  7. Art is more than entertainment. Entertainment incites. Art inspires. But life is more than art. Art inspires. Life incarnates the divine.
  8. @LindyThomas Yes, I do!
  9. @wgooden But the issue is that in pursuit of growth, some will indiscriminately embrace a kind of change that misses the mark.
  10. Just over 27 yrs ago, Kelly and I said "I do" for life. Now, 27 yrs later, I think we might actually pull it off! twitpic.com/9p5dsl
  11. @wgooden Authors get it right. All growth is change, but not all change is growth. Growth, not change, is the goal.
  12. Happiness is not something ready made. It takes a strong brand, an excellent agent and constant public exposure. - Dalai Alpaca
  13. Rode my bike in street shoes to pick up kindergartner from school. Harder to maintain balance when pulling off my @danny_macaskill moves.
  14. A sigh, a look, a tone of voice, some combination of these? What must others overcome to engage with you? People matter. Be joyful!
  15. "The glory of design lies in design-er. I know you think you fine, but he'll make you fine-er." - Verbs
  16. The Christian message is not of a Utopia that we can build through religion, but of a Kingdom that is already here and lived in by faith.
  17. Maybe more than any other, the practice that stops so many people from dreaming big, and pursuing big dreams is rejection-avoidance.
  18. The biggest obstacle to future innovation is past/present success. The lesson is that at some point, even if it ain't broke, fix it anyway.
