For anyone waiting for a response to this post. I will probably get around to answering on Thanksgiving Day, but I am pretty busy with work right now and have little time to give a response with the attention it deserves.  Thank you.

Snow
Well, looks like a decent snow storm is building up for South Dakota starting soon. I see the radar shows snow already starting in the Black Hills, so I expect it to begin snowing here in Nemo soon. Guess I need to get the snow shovel out of the shed. :(

mikeclevenger: Hey Tumblr family.  Today is the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church.  Take some time today, gather some friends together, or spend time alone, and pray for our dear brothers and sisters worldwide who live in hostile areas, in constant danger of martyrdom for the sake of the Gospel.  In the words of John Calvin:   Our prayer must not be self-centered. It must...

The Thirsty Theologian - Abortion: No Laughing... →
Extract: (Talking about a Sitcom) Following the announcement of the pregnancy came two predictable things. First, will she have the baby? Naturally, she has the option of keeping it or killing it. That’s not how the writers put it, of course. “Killing” is not mentioned, nor is the word “abortion” spoken. But the option is presented. Second, just as predictable (for a sitcom, as opposed to a...

Nisi Christus Nemo
To have all the clouds and darkness that are raised by sin between us and the throne of God dispelled; to have the fire, and storms, and tempests, that are kindled and stirred up about Him by the law removed; to have His glorious face unveiled, and His holy heart laid open, and a view given of those infinite treasures and stores of goodness, mercy, love, and kindness which have had an unchangeable...

Mississippi and Abortion
Sad that my former state did not take the initiative yesterday and try to end the genocide of children that continues in this country. Conservatism does not equal a heart for God. People need a heart change from the Lord in Mississippi!

2 Corinthians 2:14-17 / Triumphal Procession
But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? For we are not, like so...
