McNair Deserves to Own a Winner
From the Houston Chronicle this morning – McNair has revealed much of himself in five trying seasons. Even in the worst of times, he never blamed anyone else, never lashed out at the press, never fired anyone in a fit of anger. Patience? He has a warehouse of it. He has been a gracious winner [...]

It’s good to see somebody putting their money and their life where their faith is. I learned something about Dominos Pizza today: The founder, Tom Monaghan, is a faithful Catholic. He’s used his fortune to found the town of Ave Maria, Florida. What makes Ave Maria so special is that it’s designed for Christians. Tom’s [...]

Reuters identifies them as “church volunteers” killed by “Taliban.” Michelle Malking correctly identifies them by their religion. Westerners like to obscure the religion because it’s uncomfortable, but the radlical Islamists have no qualms [...]

The Church Report has released America’s 50 Most Influential Churches survey. Hey, my church, Second Baptist, is #24. Interesting that Ed Young’s son’s church made #3.

In my dream, I’m waiting in front of the (church?) junior high school, at the sidewalk under the rain protection. I’m waiting for the Sweet Wife to pick me up, except she’s not in a car. She’s in an F-14 Tomcat. She calls me on the cell phone and tells me she’s low on fuel [...]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know I haven’t posted much. Been really, really busy. I still owe Jennifer my answers to The Eight. I’ll get to it, soon, I hope. I wanted to blog about how the Democrats are findng religion. Apparently it’s ok with The Media if the Democrats talk about their faith, but if [...]

Mingle2 – Online Dating Heh. Chasing the Wind is rated “PG” because the word “dead” shows up twice and “missionary” once. I guess they’re not expecting Christian websites and they way we use those terms. * Nod to Coffeeswirls for the link.
