So, a few months ago a friend passed along a link for a free book on marriage.
The book was called Love & War by John and Stasi Elderege. And, the only catch was that you had to agree to write a review of the book on your blog.
Since I like to read, and write, [...]

Amazing Tools for Communication
The past few weeks have been pretty rough for me with the hospitalization and passing of my grandfather.
He was an incredible man of God and a loving family man, both of which can be evidenced by his 6 children and 25 grandchildren.
When he was in the hospital I spent a few days traveling back [...]
Remember Last Week? Things Have Changed
Remember that post I wrote last week?
The one about having too much going on?
Oh my, how things have changed.
And, the thing that scares me most is that, in a way, I may have asked for this.
I ended that post saying I was going to try to work through everything and avoid the desire to retreat when faced with tough [...]
Too Much Going On
There's just too much going on right now.
It's hard to focus and think clearly about anything while being pulled in so many different directions.
I think my cousin Sara shared the best course of action for this on her blog, Stories and Songs, yesterday.
Ok, so maybe hiding isn't the most productive way to deal with life, but sometimes [...]
Life is Meaningless… or, Something Like That
Well, I jumped on the bandwagon. I’ve started reading Donald Miller’s latest book, A Million Miles in a Thousand Years.
It’s good.
Over the course of two relatively short lunch breaks I’m 70 pages into the 250 page book.
It’s kind of a funny book. It’s a story about a guy trying to tell a story. Obviously there’s [...]
Weekend Update
I have a little time, so I figure I should do a weekend update. Right?
Friday
Erin was at school so I stayed home and did pretty much nothing. I thought about doing something, but settled on doing nothing.
Saturday
Erin was at school so I stayed home and did pretty much nothing. Wait, that's not entirely true.
I had a [...]
Weekend Update
Friday
Pizza from Tony’s Bella Vista and a movie at home. That was after we tried to go to the Gold Class Cinemas in Pasadena, but were turned away because everything we wanted to see was sold out. Maybe another time. Instead we fired up the DVR and watched Australia, which I thought was weird until [...]
Where Do You Keep Your Wallet and Keys?
Lately I've been asking myself that question. I used to be the kind of guy who keeps his wallet in the back right pocket, keys in the right front, and cell phone in the left front, but lately I've been questioning this practice.
First of all, it's annoying to sit on your wallet all the [...]
Weekend Update
Friday
Dinner at Zeke's Smokehouse in Montrose. Chicken, Ribs, Beans, Green Beans, Hush Puppies, Onion Rings, Sweet Potato Fries, and Shiner Bock. Good stuff.
Watched Up in the Air. Erin enjoyed all of the little details about business travel.
Saturday
A little work around the house followed by a lot of playing with my new WD TV Live. It's a [...]
Weekend Update
Friday Night was the Battle for Burbank. Every year Burbank High School and John Burroughs High School, the two Burbank High Schools, face off on the football field. This year the winner of the game got to go on to league, which added a little more excitement. While neither Erin nor I have ties to [...]
