Charlie the Hampster Ministry

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

I’m thinking of starting a “Mysterious Ways” category.

Every now and then I run across a “ministry site” of some sort or another that is so “mysterious” to me that I have no idea how it could possibly be effective. But, that tends to earn me a letter from the president of the company that […]

It’s official

Thursday, April 28th, 2005

I’m getting old.

I put on a sweater today because I was getting chilly.

I NEVER GET ‘CHILLY’. The only chillin I ever do is like a villian, never because of the low temperature!

Sheesh. I am so ashamed.

EXPLODING TOADS

Wednesday, April 27th, 2005

THE END IS NEAR!!!

Exploding Toads

In Hamburg Germany, for the last week, toads have been crawling out of a pond, acting fairly normally, THEN INFLATING AND EXPLODING, with a splash radius of 1 meter.

THAT is WEIRD! I want to find good videos or pictures, but haven’t been able to.

Scientists haven’t figured out why it is […]

Archie’s Cousin

Monday, April 25th, 2005

My sister got a kitty!

Meet ARTEMIS, Archimedes’s cousin. That’s right. Archie and Artie. They even LOOK related.

More photos of Artemis

A rose by any other…

So… what should we call the new building we are working on for The Ezekiel Project?

Brainstorm your idea’s on Tim’s blog.

First inclinations:

-Zeke’s (thanks Angie Frerichs) -The Rock -Curtiss ++ -[something X-treme, or anything where you replace “ex” with X] -Strangers

By the way. My title was no cliche. It occurs to me that no matter what we call this, […]

What I think.

Monday, April 25th, 2005

Per Tim’s suggestion on my post linking to the various articles about One (and Tom Short) in the Daily today, I am going to respond with what I think.

On the lead editorial “Poor planning made ‘1′ controversial“

Catholics, Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Methodists and other churches have a significant student presence and were not adequately involved by the […]

States Visited

This was slightly interesting. I smell roadtrip!

One reaction in the Daily

Monday, April 25th, 2005

There were a couple of articles in the daily today about One. One of them berating the University for “poor planning” with the funding, that is, not giving people much (”…making it so few groups would have the time to be able to prepare a significant event for April.”) The other is generally […]

Geek alert.

EMAIL VIRUS WARNING

Wednesday, April 20th, 2005

Clever clever. If you get an e-mail that looks like the following DO NOT OPEN THE ATTACHMENT!:

SUBJECT: I’vegot your EMail on myaccount!

Hello, First, Very Sorry for my bad English.

Someone is sending your private e-mails on my address. It’s probably an e-mail provider error! At time, I’ve got over 10 mails on my account, but the recipient are […]

Fishers of men

Wednesday, April 20th, 2005

On Monday, Todd had a great post about some context of the “fishers of men” quote of Christ. It’s a tad “Upside down” from the way we think about it :)

His main point: when we think of being fishermen, we think of a guy out on a lake or river, by himself, with some […]

Desire.

Pat is going to yell at me, but I love this guitar.

It’s the kind Crowder plays (ya, I’m in a crowder mood today.) Similar to a Gibson Chet Atkins acoustic.

David Crowder* Band

Monday, April 18th, 2005

I found this on their Web site a while ago. Ran across it again today. It really speaks to me for some reason. Definitely something to be learned from it.

Mission

david crowder* band exists to embody and communicate a refreshing hope discovered through following God in the way of Christ. God has not […]

Shortest message of the semester.

Monday, April 18th, 2005

You can download my message on faith that i gave at the Rock on Friday night. It came in at just under 25 minutes.

Not sure it was my best one ever, but hey, they can’t all be amazing, right?

I haven’t heard a lot of feedback on it, though what I’ve heard is generally […]

Everything I Know about Faith

Thursday, April 14th, 2005

I am talkingg at the Rock this week about Faith. As such, I have been doing a couple week long bible study on it. Here’s the results of said study:

Outcome is the Salvation of your Soul (1 Peter 1:9) A prayer of faith can heal the sick (James 5:15) Without works (actions corresponding to it) […]

iPod One

Wednesday, April 13th, 2005

CNN article on President Bush’s iPod

It goes through and implies hypocrisy of Bush for his musical selections, and then quotes an expert who says that one shouldn’t psychoanalyze the President based on what’s in his iPod.

How do they even KNOW what’s in his iPod???

Rockin Idea indeed.

Tuesday, April 12th, 2005

In response to Erik’s post about a new theme for the Rock next year: “That’s what college is all about.”

I dig this idea a lot man.

Imagine the ludicrousness of pulling people fresh from high school, isolating them in a system that caters to their every whim, and telling them to figure life out for themselves, […]

Coming Soon (?)

Monday, April 11th, 2005

This site is approaching age 2… I hate to jinx it, but I thought I’d give her a redesign.

Comments and criticisms welcome…
