Someone Left The Cake Out In The Rain
If the return of Mad Men has you wanting to put on your best Betty Draper-Francis hostess act, sans cigarettes, dysfunctional relationships and kids running around with plastic bags on their heads, have I got a treat for you. An updated take on a 60s classic, these puffs are perfect for a wedding/baby shower, Spring brunch or luncheon, or a swanky cocktail party full of throw-back appetizers.

I “painted” the above image with my finger using the “Brushes” app on my iPhone. It is a scene from the river in front of my house. The sun had just set, blasting an array of colour across the horizon. The full moon was rising in all its splendour. share share share share Oops!
What shall we …do with this rejected and condemned people, the Jews? First, to set fire to their synagogues or schools and to bury and cover with dirt whatever will not burn, so that no man will ever again see a stone or cinder of them. If you guessed Martin Luther, you’re correct. Amazing that the same man many call one of the greatest fathers of the Christian faith would spew forth such poison. And those statements are only the tip of the ice burg. If you guessed Hitler, you were close.
Beyond Church Walls
Did you wake up fresh today, a new start, a blank slate with resources and opportunities... or is today yet another day of living out the narrative you've been engaged in for years? For all of us, it's the latter. We maintain our worldview, our biases, our grudges and our affections.

As Wayne recovers from his recent trip to Russia and Holland, Brad joins him for a discussion of his trip. They talk about Wayne’s perception of the Russian people he was with, the unique challenges of their culture, and their passion to learn to live loved in a culture where only a very small slice of people are engaged with spiritual realities. In the course of the conversation they discuss how people tend to view God.ASBO Jesus | The Ongoing Adventures…

Posted: January 23rd, 2012 By: JKE “Safety First!” , you may think while watching the following video, but if the cheap (Chinese) polyethylene (?) extension cables just break too often due to rough handling and their low quality, chances are that someone will come up with an alternative.

Confluence: Ben Byerly's Muddy Mix
I was in a silly mood this morning while corresponding with a friend about young students wanting direct answers from their profs. It got me thinking about my own academic and spiritual journey. My five-year-old son has become a Star Wars fanatic, and many conversations in our home are now conducted now with a Yoda voice. So in my best Yoda imitation, here is my response to a younger me. Right answers seek you? Truth.
The theme of the 2012 Skoll World Forum is “Flux: seizing momentum, driving change”, which I think is a fantastic one. We’ve never had such upheaval in the way businesses work, in how citizens interact with government, or in how information flows in the world. It’s about change, and survival in a time of flux is best done through agility and creativity. “As an operating paradigm, it expresses the fluid nature of relationships, policies, institutions and human beings which are ever changing in non-linear ways.” Thriving on Acceleration
Where Africa and Technology Collide! — WhiteAfrican
Of all our boundaries our internal ones are the most confusing, complex, and conflicting. When you fail to control your personal issues, habits, even addictions, you may experience embarrassment even shame. You could be dealing with holding your tongue or abstaining from substance abuse. The degree of the problem may not be the issue so much as your thinking about it. While it seems easy to tell others how to solve their boundary problems, we have a tough time with our own internal, often private, tormentors. We attempt to cope with out-of-control eating, spending, our inability to manage our time and even inappropriate sexual behaviors.

Since 1997 we are working together with the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada to reach the semi nomads in the northern part of Kenya. With our "More of Jesus" Gospel-bus and our team members we reach out specially to children and young people. With seminars, Sunday school ministry, evangelism and cinema nights we try to reach the un-reached once and to support the indigenous churches.We had zipped on in to the city so my friend could shoot some footage for a documentary, when we ran across a group of young people playing music in front of a fountain and offering passers-by hugs in the name of Jesus. Yes. Hugs... For Jesus .
