played out a western as former Marshall, Sheriff Marshall Coltson, last night [yes, Colt Son as in son of a gun - with my memory it helps to have some kind of word association going so i can remember my own name, although Megan did call me Cranston at one stage which was particularly [Breaking] bad, but that happens...] at the Kalk Bay theatre as part of the ongoing Improguise Festival... it was my last [...]
aka Jamie the very worst missionary's position on sex [part I] My youngest son is about to turn 13, so for the next 9 months, until my oldest turns 20 (holy ape balls!), I will be Mom to three teenage boys. That means our dinner table feels like a locker room... if locker rooms were full of nerds. The conversation tumbles easily from Xbox to music to girls to MineCraft to push ups to girls to [...]
I remember the first article I was invited to write for Truth magazine back in the day had the title, "How far is too far?" so I wrote, "Belgium. Belgium is too far!" and then proceeded to write the rest of my article [for some reason, they let me stay.] And the main point of the article was that if we are asking 'How far is too far?' then we are already in trouble because [...]
Earlier this week a tornado swept through Oklahama, killing a number of people and leaving a mass of devastation in its wake. Within a couple of hours of the disaster, well-known speaker and author John Piper tweeted this verse: “Your sons and daughters were eating and a great wind struck the house, and it fell upon them, and they are dead.” Job 1:19 There was a huge uproar about it. How could this public figure [...]
his name is Mark. youngish guy, i'd say mid twenties and kinda looked a little bit like Mark Brendanawicz. but i don't think it was him. [i mean it could have been him cos Mark has been out of the show for a season or two although i don't think his name is actually 'Mark' in real life so he might have used that name. it's not, Uncle Google says it's 'Paul Schneider'] but he [...]

well, actually, this pome is titled 'If' but po-tay-to, po-tah-to... my wife linked to this the other day and i remembered what a powerful read it was... hope you enjoy [especially if this is your first time... and it works for women too by the way!] 'If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But [...]
so more than 1000 people have viewed the post my friend Candi graciously shared with me about being a parent of small children when it doesn't necessarily go well or feel good all of the time [which for this little blog is a lot of people which has been exciting to see and will hopefully continue to encourage those out there who may be struggling with some of the same stuff] and so this is [...]
i came across this article titled, 'Loving Dzhokhar Tsarnaev' [one of the suspected terrorists involved in the recent Boston Marathon bombing] shortly after it happened and it really made some strong points in terms of our role as Christ following people in the wake of such a horrific disaster. the author, Adam Mabry, starts off by highlighting two opposing reactions which are equally unhelpful: 'The first is the xenophobic, racial, and even religious hatred of [...]
