About four months ago my iPod crashed. Since then I haven’t heard any of my podcasts. Around this same time I discovered the Indie Web Movement. This lead me to question/examine my dependence on Desktops, Devices, and OS. I broke the chains.  Last night I started moving my podcast subscriptions off iTunes to The Cloud (Google Listen and Podnova). I don’t need iTunes or an iPod to...

Solomon Kane: A Puritan Pulp Hero →
Most people know Robert E. Howard as the creator of Kull the Conqueror and Conan the Barbarian. Howard’s first success however, came with Solomon Kane, a 17th Century Puritan. Amazon has the complete Solomon Kane (see link) on Kindle for $1.99 and Dark Horse has republished the old comics and is writing new stories.  My prayer is that the new generation of Puritans would submit fan stories...

… Derman has coined the term pragmamorphism to describe our tendency to define people in terms of inanimate things – IQ tests, magnetic brain scans, income. Pragmamorphic thinking, says Derman, is dangerous because it creates a one-or-two-dimensional representation of a multidimensional phenomenon – human behavior – and presents that as the whole story. Derman’s warning is...

While reading today’s devotional, Isaiah 51:1-55:13, I was overwhelmed by its content, thought, “This can only be divine!” and reminded of the Confession of Faith, Chapter 1 (Of the Holy Scriptures), Paragraph 5: We may be moved and induced by the testimony of the Church of God, to an high and reverent esteem of the Holy Scriptures; and the heavenliness of the matter, the...
