If you look to your right you will see our “Blogroll” facility. These blogs are truly one of a kind. Please keep you hands and arms from the cage wall as they can be rather challenging little blogs.
Some guys I have come to appreciate over the last couple of years (in no particular order, except maybe alphabetical) are Bill Walden, Jim Jacobson, Ken Sutton, and Mike Macon.

Hopefully they will pop in from time to time here and contribute their nougaty goodness.

Technically I suppose it is because it begins Monday at noon and ends Thursday at noon. That makes three full 24-hour days. But by about, oh, right now I’m almost burned out. So I will see what I can do for updating this puppy. Read the rest of this entry »
I figure doing this by day instead of by session and workshop works better.
This morning was David Rosales with 1 Thess. 2:13 – 3:13 about trials and “speed bumps.” I had no idea David had been through so much junk even just in the past few years. His heart was genuine and his hope inspiring. Read the rest of this entry »
