Thursday, October 27th, 2005While we may lament that the Billy Graham iPod is not a reality, we are not without hope. My kids love Dance Dance Revolution (DDR) on the XBox. Personally, I’m all for it. They play video games and get exercise. What’s not to love? Well, its all that darned secular music! I mean we’ve done [...]
Harriet Miers Splits
Thursday, October 27th, 2005WASHINGTON, D.C. (OIC News) – Embattled Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers withdrew from the confirmation process. “No, I don’t want to be just friends” Ms. Miers said slamming the Congressional screen door behind her as she stormed off the porch at the Capital building. She avoided questions and cameras as she entered her rusted 1993 [...]
The GodPod
Wednesday, October 26th, 2005Now wouldn’t this be cool! There is kind of a SproulPod but it isn’t autographed or anything. Too bad the Billy Graham edition it isn’t for real. (HT: cg5addictmacpage)
More Baptist Covenant Theology
Thursday, October 20th, 2005I was pointed to this link which contains the audio from the Southern Baptist Founders Conference Southwest 2005. I thought Fred Malone’s talk “The Hermeneutics of Baptist Covenant Theology” was really excellent. It is a bit antagonistic towards paedobaptistic Covenant Theology (Malone used to be a presbyterian) but other than that I though he made [...]
Star Wars Prophet
Wednesday, October 19th, 2005This cartoon was originally published on July 15, 1983. Notice that Lucas says that the prequels should begin in ’98, Berke Breathed only missed it by one year! Not bad. Click on the picture to see the rest of the cartoon. Luke Binkleywalker is not happy about having to wait that long. Imagine how he [...]
The Love of Money
Tuesday, October 18th, 2005Preacher’s Mega-Church Dreams End in Nightmare (for his congregation) Key quote: “A church board member said, ‘If we don’t do this [invest the money], we might as well close those doors. Because God will leave us.’” (HT: Paulo)
Zonderhill Publication Announcement
Friday, October 14th, 2005GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Oct. 20, 2005 – Zonderhill Publishers announced today the release of St. Esophigus’ classic work, “The Purpose Motivated Staying Alive During a Plague.” This wonderful devotional work from a little known saint from Christianity’s past was recently discovered in a cave in Turkey. Scholars have painstakingly restored and translated it into modern, [...]
Harry Winston Rare Timepieces —Opus V—
Thursday, October 13th, 2005This has got to be the coolest timepiece ever. Limited edition and probably way beyond anything I would be willing to pay for a wristwatch, but man.
St. Esophigus of Thorax
Wednesday, October 12th, 2005St. Esophigus of Thorax (365-401 AD) was the father of mime and liturgical drama. It is said that he followed St. John Chrysostom around and “warmed up” the worshipers with a skit or mime before Chrysostom preached. St. Esophigus was the first mime to paint his face white. No one knows why he did it [...]
Sinclair Furgeson and the NPP
Wednesday, October 12th, 2005I’ve seen this on a few other blogs but I thought that since I had recently posted on the NPP I should link to it and comment on it also. Ferguson lectured on the New Perspective (16.6MB mp3) back in August. He said that due to problems at the airport he didn’t get in the [...]
