I know, I know, the conference ended yesterday. I’ll just give the excuse that I spent all afternoon (and evening!) in various airports trying to get home. A three-hour layover at New York’s LaGuardia Airport certainly will draw out your travel time.
The last morning of the Together for the Gospel conference was very good. C.J. [...]

Good evening to you all! Today has been a very long day, but one of immense personal joy. As I am writing this, I must confess that I am thoroughly exhausted but my heart is more warm and alive than I’ve felt in a long time. Tonight’s session was especially inspiring.
Here’s the rundown from today’s [...]

It’s now way past my bedtime following a full day of travel to Louisville, Kentucky, where I am attending the first ever Together for the Gospel conference.

I’ve been on this site a couple of times prior to tonight, and I must say that this may be the best evangelical blog I’ve encountered. The writer is not a minister or pastor, so he comes from a “non-professional” viewpoint, and he writes with conviction and truth. The layout isn’t too shabby, [...]

Okay, I’ve already been mocked by my wife, so hold your impulses. Keep your judgment, and withhold your scorn. I’ve got a problem. I admit this, but I make no apologies. I’ve become a tennis junkie.
Janel (my wife), you started this. You know that, right? This past January my wife casually mentioned that she wouldn’t [...]
