I too loved that long ago article by Pat McManus. Do you have a copy you could send me or tell me where to get a copy? I have searched long for it.

Thanks

This is really good! It’s like a creed I could live by… I might just steal it. Man, I like the way you write. I have not met you, but I’m sure that I will. Thanks for living a kingdom life and putting it to words, brother. Praying for strenght and the power of Christ for you as you live this out.
KLR!

I believe that every pair of pants should include a knife. There is a preacher in California who agrees, but I can’t think of his name. Rachel is so patient in allowing our living room to be the staging area for wake sports from May through October. I believe also that wakeboards, vests, ropes and neatly folded towels make great living room decor. The same may be applied to fishing gear if arranged properly.

Comment on Trouble Brewing: A relaxed attitude toward drinking? by Kathy Y. Stevens

I’m a little late in responding to this; I have to admit that I’ve been lax (summer’s been too busy) in keeping up with your blogs. I felt that I had to respond after your blog was the center of a discussion we had around the pool one Friday afternoon. Egads! there were both males and females there! I can understand that a line may have to be drawn simply because most people don’t know how to actually think for themselves. That sounds rather harsh but it is true. Most people are like cattle. They simply follow who is leading them.

Those who can think and reason, I believe, should be allowed to do so. There are always going to be those “holier than thou” who must follow the rules to the letter because they don’t have enough sense to do otherwise. Consider the source… the other night in church, I couldn’t help but notice a 20 something old girl sitting in my pew. True, she was wearing a dress that came to her ankles or close. The problem was that the fabric of the dress was quite clingy… you could actually see the straps of her bra and her panty lines. One must ask – is that modest? Yet, nothing is said from the pulpit about that…

Ellen is no longer a happy camper about the knife thing.
I gave both of them knives, because I believe every man needs a pocket knife. And, well, they may not be men yet. We found fresh cuts in our fairly new leather ottoman.

Ellen has put the kibosh on “staging” in the living room again.
