Aha!

  • Religion playing a part in ancient Greece, but remaining just that – a part. But for the Hebrew, worship was a way of life.
  • the Hebrew word for work and worship are the same: avodah.
  • Both of these aha moments were found in the book Assumptions That Affect Our Lives. By: Christian Overman.

Please come soon Spring!!

I will be honest I enjoyed the winter and the snow but I am getting cabin fever - but today I was able to get outside. Today in Kansas the weather was in the 60s - I was excited cause I did not have too much to do on this beautiful Saturday! I am ready and excited for spring or even warmer weather. However I did hear that it might snow in a few days - welcome to the midwest!
So with that being said Yoh, Harley, and I went to enjoy the weather. We went and grabbed lunch and went to Shawnee Mission Park. After lunch we took Harley on a long walk around the area, in the grass, by the beach, in a creek etc. We all had a great time - only one of us got into the water - I will let you guess who. I hope that some of you were to get out and enjoy the amazing weather that the Lord blessed us with.

2 years and close to/or over 100 done!!!

Well some of you might not know that I have a side hobbie/spiritual tool that I do in my "spare time." This task is to type the important parts of books that other people in my church (mostly Paul) have read. The readers go through and highlight important factors, and then I type what I call the cliff notes. These cliff notes then are being used to help with three books that Paul is writing.
So just the other day I was going through some of my old emails and deciding if I still needed to keep them or if I could delete them. While doing that I came across an email that was from February 2006 asking me if I would be willing to type highlighted books. So with that being said I have been going hard at it through basketball and softball seasons, shoulder surgery and just other life things for awhile now and the stack is getting really small now as Paul is on the beginning of the writing season and less reading! I am not sure of the exact total of books that I have typed, but I do know that it is close to 100 if not over it. Needless to say I am happy to this task for my community and for someday the world. It's funny but somehow typing the books relaxes me and at the same time I do remember some of the things that I type.
Places I type besides my home, at my desk at work, Starbucks, the cafe area at my fitness center, and my favorite place was at Dunn Brothers Coffee House with the Simon's - good music and of course good company.
