Grandma Pants


Here is Dani with what looks like my Grandma's pants that also double as a bra. I am amazed at how quickly she is growing. I heard it said last week that instead of marveling at God's creation such as sunsets, mountains, rivers etc, we should be looking at his greatest creation of all, us, humans. Not that we shouldn't marvel at sunsets and those things, but people are God's greatest and most satisfying of his creation.This is something that I need to work on because I find myself being a reluctant member of the human race. I find myself wanting to retreat and get away from people. I seem to be having more trouble in big groups. Anyway Lord help me love people and hate sin.

A Great Day


Well I went golfing with my mother in-law the other day which was really cool. We had a good time, though there were many bad shots, and a few good ones too. After golf we went to Fort Carlton for a picnic. This was really cool since my old bible school professor was our tour guide. Allan Friesen is one of the smartest men I have ever met, and extremely humble. His were my favorite classes to take at Bethany. He was once again a fountain of knowledge. What made this day great was family and the beauty that God has created. It was really beautiful at Fort Carlton. I highly recommend going there if you want to get away for a day or so. Thanks God for being so creative.

Tony Campolo and the Hour


Tonight Barb and I watched the Hour. We watch this show quite a bit now. We really like this show which is hosted by George Stromboulopolus from the CBC. This show is all over the map spiritually, which I think is cool. They feature all sides of the story so to speak. Anyway, tonight they had Tony Campolo on. He was talking about how politics and religion have become glued together and how people in the states are being judgmental if one is a Christian and not a republican. He says that Christians are completely missing the point of the bible when they act in this manner. With over 2000 verses in the bible speaking about the poor, Campolo says that we are tragically missing the point of the bible and of Christ. What was really cool was how Campolo painted a picture of Jesus that was as accurate as any I've ever heard. He said that people will be judged not on their theology but on what they did for the poor. Jesus said, "I assure you, when you refused to help the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were refusing to help me." Very good interview, funny as well!

Book Suggestion


If you have boys or are having boys I recommend this book by James Dobson. Not only as a parent but as a youth minister I found this book to be very informative. Along the lines of this book I will also recommend Wild at Heart by John Eldridge. These books really gave me a clear understanding of how boys operate. These books for me were and are life changing books. I grew up with my dad not around. Even when he was around, he wasn't around if you know what I mean. These books cemented the importance of being involved in a boys life. Not around, but involved. Anyway, highly recommend these books.

Bobby Lou


How accurate is this picture? With the exception of Willie Mitchell and Trevor Linden I think it is pretty close. Anyway I know this is way late but I just got the picture and thought it was too good to not show people. Who is going to win Ottawa or Anaheim? I pick Anaheim based on the their defense and their third line which is a really good checking line, which Ottawa's top line has not really seen yet in these playoffs. Let me know your thoughts. Peace.

Dani California


Well I'm back. I couldn't remember my password to my other blog and didn't feel like using that one anyway, so I thought I would come back with a brand new blog, K-Rawk style. Cheesy hey? Yes, I got the name from the Red Hot Chili Peppers song Dani California. I thought the name was cool and I love California so it seemed cool. Hopefully she likes it when she gets older. Gotta run. Barb wants to cuddle on the couch. Peace.
