conviction

I just read a friend of mine's blog (ok, so...friend is a stretch. He's more of a facebook acquaintance) and feel conviction deep down. I'd suggest we all read this post and take to heart the words our brother is speaking.

You will probably need a facebook account to read the post, so if you can't see it, just let me know and I'll forward it to you. If you decide not to read...just try to deal with this quote:

I have a dare for you. Take your television and put it in a closet. Don’t open that closet for a month (and you’re not allowed to stay in the closet with it!). Too difficult?

Ok, take your Bible and put it in a closet for a month. Don’t open that closet for a month. For one month, don’t read a word of Scripture.
Which of those would you find easier to bear?

May God break down our heart barriers and make us holy.

don't waste it...

I finally have a computer that has Windows XP which allows me to have the sweet application...iTunes.

I'm a Mac lover, so this is huge. (if any rich folk out there wanna buy me a computer, make it a MacBook Pro)

One of the first things I did when I got iTunes was sign up for a bunch of video and audio podcasts. They are great. I get to hear Piper answer questions, MacArthur answer questions. I get to hear stuff from the Resurgence. I love them.

There is one, though, that is most powerful. The "Don't Waste Your Life" videos. If you are a Christian and you have itunes (or some other video podcast downloader) then sign up for them here: DWYL vodcast

"There are three types of Christians. There are the goers. The senders. And the disobedient."...ugh. that hit me hard.

Let us go and let us send that the world might know and be saved.
