Well, our family attended the local Anglican parish this morning for the first time in over two years. My wife told me a few weeks ago that she was ready to go and that she just felt like it was time. I had to be out of town for a week so this Sunday was [...]

Skipping to the last page

Someone I know wrote this and he’s allowed me to share it with you. It meshes very well with my own feelings. The Problem With Christian Music (or Skipping to the Last Page) The song that brought this to mind is “Gravity” by Sara Bareilles. Something always brings me back to you. It never takes [...]

Back in the age of dial-up, when regular people were just beginning to get on the internet, the first things I discovered were message boards. There were tons of them.

I’ve been visiting some different churches hoping to find something close to the Anglican one I enjoyed so much, but with a stronger children’s program and other elements my wife would like. [...]
