This afternoon, I had a very interesting discussion with a fellow believer, my back yard neighbor. Found out he’s a Gideon, which I respect tremendously. He’s also a successful business man, and attends a Baptist church. He comes across as one with a strict and somber view of God, with lots of warnings not to approach God […]

Overcoming this Physical World
This morning, I got up early and took my kayak to the beach. Had an awesome time fighting the (big) waves(high tide at sunrise) on the way out, and catching long, fast rides all the way back in. As usual, part of my time was spent outside the break, bobbing in the swells, talking and […]
