Comment on New E-book – Warning Contains No Sugar by Art Carden

I read this a few days ago. It’s really, really good. Among other things, John brings out the importance of knowing what you say “yes” to: I’m guilty of (way) over-extending myself and being sloppy from time to time as a result. I finally realized as I heard some students bragging about all-nighters that pulling all-nighters and staying frazzled is a mark of immaturity. If only I’d realized that as a teenager. Or a college student. Or a grad student. Or a first or second-year faculty member…

In any event, this is worth the time you will spend reading (and re-reading) it. The short (43 pp?) electronic format makes it especially useful–and a lot less daunting than other books you might try.

We got her at the Capital City shelter. The story was that her mom and the rest of the litter had been abandoned in a shopping center parking lot in a cardboard box.

Comment on One Way Jesus–a call to confidence in the exclusivity of Christ by Darcy Davenport

HI John
This reminds me of the bumper stickers I use to see ” God is my co-pilot. At first I thought cool, but I came to realize that if God co-pilots my life then we are equals. God asked Job (paraphrased by me) Who do you think you are? Can you create a world or a human, or even a plant. Isiah 55:8 My thoughts are not your thoughts and neither are your ways my ways. I am not equal to God I need His grace, I need him to be the pilot,

and because He is God and my ego is to large He makes me ride coach

Drama makes the big bucks, but murder, rape and adultry are probably not that entertaining for someone who has experience one of them first hand. Providing those things as entertainment seems to desensitize people into thinking those things are no big deals.

My son-in-law who was brought up in the Jehova’s Witness church said they were forbidden to pledge allegiance to the flag. The only allegiance they could pledge was to God.
