instructions

I was reading in Psalm 19 this morning. Went there to recollect what Sean McDowell said in a conference Saturday. This morning, in the NLT, I read: 7 The instructions of the Lord are perfect,      reviving the soul.   The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy,      making wise the simple. 8 The commandments of the Lord are right,      bringing joy to [...]

Nothing to say

Well, it’s Sunday night, almost Monday morning. I’m "the" communicator and I really have nothing to say. Not a thing. What on earth is wrong with me? I think it has to do, ironically, with the subject of communication! I am trying to put together what I want to cover in the meeting for the [...]

Wednesday already???

Wow! I feel like I’ve lost a week! Well, maybe I have, but not really. Now, THAT is some circular thinking! I want to take some time in some separate posts to gel up what I learned at Catalyst, and put that into some action points I can live out. For now, I want to [...]
