I just watched a program about one of the gangs that was located on the Bus route in Oklahoma City when I was there. Some of the houses in the program were ones we picked up children from, I know I saw some of those vehicles...God sure watched out for me!!

I remember mine. His name was Tony. He was gorgeous. We were children of the seventies so he had long black hair that came a little bit below his shoulders and the deepest blue eyes you have ever seen. Man I was crazy about him. My parents broke us up or I might have married that boy. But I still remember that boy and smile when I do.

This does NOT mean, "Are you...In Face Book?:" It actually means are you an Independent Fundamental Baptist. Some folks I see making this selection may have it confused with something else.

Okay, so here is an interesting question. How many draft replies do you have saved on OB that you started and either didn't finish or decided better of hitting the "Post Reply" button? I have 43 of them!

Faith mixes with football for the big game By Tim Dahlberg Associated Press Posted Jan 28, 2009 @ 12:00 AM Last update Jan 28, 2009 @ 12:18 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TAMPA, Fla. ? Arizona running back Tim Hightower had just finished a thoughtful explanation of his religious beliefs when one of the media types who found their way into the Super Bowl stadium Tuesday decided he needed more proof. ?Can you pray right now?? he asked. ?I can pray that whatever is going on in your life right now that you find God,? Hightower said. Hightower handled the question with the same ease he handled would-be tackler…

This Christmas is going to be quite hectic for me. First we plan to go to Philadelphia to visit my uncle, then we will proceed to New York City and stay there for a couple of days. After that, we plan to go somewhere warm, preferably Mexico (since it was AWESOME last year) and lastly we will stay at the cottage until the break is over. What about you? What are you going to be doing 'tis holiday season?'Hopefully I will be able to get a little bit of time to stay home to play my 360 and hang out with friends. I got some cool games recently (and will hopefully get more for Christmas), but I havn't been able to play them because of the massive amount of homework and term pro…

Snow 1 2

One of the very few years that we have seen snow on Christmas Eve in Southwest Arkansas, but we did. It began somewhere around 10:00 PM. Coming home from Linda's brothers house it snowed on us till we got to Murfreesboro, and many of the cars and roof tops had snow on them. But before we got to Nashville it had stopped, them started back just a bit right before we got home. That is enough snow for me this year.

I watched this movie last night and I thought it was really good. Very clean, no cuss words. Good moral of the story. Anyone else seen this movie?

I was just curious about numbers in your local church. My local church has a small congregation (approximately 100 per Sunday morning). I attend Decatur Chapel and the congregation is growing. Of course we would like to see more and we're planning to do some community knocking. If you know the numbers for sure could you post them for the Sunday morning service. Also, if they are Baptist please say so, the name would be great but not required. Decatur Chapel, Independent Baptist, 100 approx.

[Book] The Shack 1 2 3

In my travels last week, I got a chance to finally read The Shack. As promised, here is my review. It?s very rare, in my mind, for a book to live up to the hype surrounding it. Likely that is because the intellectuals that read and review books are much better at seeing quality writing then I am. That being said, the Shack lives up to its hype, and then some. Spoiler Warning? In this group, I would be foolish to not tackle the obvious concern right off the bat. God shows up as an African-American woman. For many that is a stumbling block. Let?s assume that God did decide to condescend to someone today with the intent of challenging that individual?s pre-conc…

Just have to share.... I have a church member who will be 104 years old this Friday. She is still able to come to Sunday morning services about twice a month and her smile is the brightest one in the church!

You'll have to read it to comment. http://freethroughtruth.blogspot.com/2009/10/those-who-stand-for-nothing-fall-for.html I believe the current Senate legislation on hate crimes will be a partial or whole enabler for the same in the U.S.
