A Hebrew Medley (video): Ayts Chaim/Hashivenu
Here’s a simple Hebrew medley I want to teach the King’s Court Choir at CPC. I recorded a quick video with my guitar—actually, with my daughter’s cheapo short-neck—so they can hear how the song goes.
A Well-Run Household
Today, I have a guest post from humorist Kevin Cummings, who graciously is allowing me to poke, stab, put him under a microscope, and otherwise enhance his discomfort in an upcoming interview at bethestory.com, all to promote his new book, Happily Domesticated. (So you can see what he gets out of it. The pleasure I […]
Computer Upgrades Cost Lives
Or at least they cost life. That is, they suck time from my life, because they seriously disrupt my life, and keep me from getting much of anything done, including writing blog posts. One of my Facebook friends even asked me how I was doing, I had disappeared for so long! So, my dad was […]
The Psychology of Worship Music
Isn’t it amazing, with the amount of time we as Christians spend in worship, and especially singing in worship, that we understand so little about it.

What Luxury Do You Wish For?
I have simple tastes. I could survive on soup and salad, and an occasional hot dog, and be happy. I need a roof over my head, companionship, and an Internet connection (because that’s business). Nonetheless—to answer Jamie Ridler’s Wishcasting Wednesday question, “What luxury do you wish for?”—there are a few things I really enjoy that […]

No, really, I’m really excited about this week’s funny job ads, and I think you’ll agree. Because who doesn’t just LOVE funny job ads?! Like this real-life job ad from […]
YA Audio-novel Giveaway
Just a quick note: Laura Whitcomb is giving away a prize each month on her blog throughout the school year. The first giveaway is a CD audio-novel, A Certain Slant of Light. I myself read the paperback some time ago—see my A Certain Slant of Light review. The one-line version: “When the dead-unresolved meet the […]
How Many of These Games Can You Identify?
I was reminiscing on YouTube on my Commodore 64, the third computer I ever had. The first was a Sinclaire ZX81, with 1KB RAM, no sound, and black-and-white video. Then we upgraded that with a 16KB RAM pack. Then my parents upgraded me the following Christmas to a Commodore VIC-20, which had a whole 4KB […]
The 9/11 Wedding Pictures
… because they were taken 16 years ago today. The Missus & I are proud members of the 9/11 Club, those whose wedding falls on September 11. Of course, people are still getting married on 9/11. Numerous couples, I’m sure, got married today, September 11, 2009. (Just ask Google. He’ll back me up on this, […]
