Some Blog Site

I thought about maybe having it say “Fourwarned is fourarmed”. Alternately, I could have done something with someone’s forearms and left it as “Forewarned is forearmed”. But I liked this version of “Forewarned is fourarmed” the best.

I was poking about the website of Cedarville University and came upon this.

Apparently when your child is applying to go to college there, you have to know which of you is the better parent. Maybe the kid gets to decide. Who is the best parent – mom or dad?

I recommend putting in the house phone number, to avoid conflict.

Some Wife had some sourdough starter, so she had to make things every so often to keep the sourdough happy. This time she made bagels.

There were more than we could eat in a reasonable time, so she had me pack them up – wrap each one in cling wrap then put them in a freezer baggy and then they keep well in the freezer.

But before the baggy goes into the freezer, it gets a description, so that if it gets lost in the freezer and we find it later we don’t have to guess what it was and when it was.

Her specific instructions to me were “write sourdough bagels and then write today’s date”. So that’s what I did.

I do follow instructions well.

Here is a guest post I wrote for SCL back in the day (2011 in case you’re wondering). It wasn’t run because I didn’t actually write a full blog post for Jon, I just sent him an outline of ideas. But I decided to fill it out and present it to you today.

Not many activities outside of church use responsive readings. Some concerts you might get the singer pointing the microphone at the audience and getting them to sing along, but that’s not quite the same thing. The only other place I can picture a call-and-response type thing is a protest, where someone might be leading a chant.

That’s all I have on this one, I couldn’t figure out where to take this next or give it a good conclusion.

Here is the headline I came up with:
Christians shouldn’t own radar detectors, and other fine points of Romans 13

I don’t really have much to the body of this post, other than to note some things about laws and speeding. But I do remember that a college professor I had said something about the American revolution being un-Christian, because it was rebelling against the established/recognized ruler.

My take on that was that it would have been un-Christian for the leaders of the American revolution, but to the average person in the colonies, maybe not. Because as a citizen of a land, if the old government gets overthrown and a new government is established, you would be within the guidelines to obey the new government. And if your conscience told you to obey the old government until they abdicated their control of your land, that too would be within the guidelines.

But I hope that none of you readers ever has to be in the position to have to make that choice.

And that really strayed off the topic of radar detectors.

What role should luck have in Christianity? We do see people casting lots, which would seem to us to be a game of chance, but it also a way for God to communicate. Christian broadcasters should announce Stanford’s quarterback as “Andrew Providence” or “Andrew Blessing” rather than “Andrew Luck”.

Similarly, gatherings with food should be called “pot blessings”.

That’s how long ago I wrote that – Andrew Luck was a college player. Since then he has gone into the NFL as a player, retired as a player, and then joined the executive ranks.
