Chernobyl Then and Now
Here is an interesting series of photos showing Chernobyl back in 1984 and showing what it looks like today.
The Greenback Effect
Warren Buffet, in an op-ed at the Times, shares some staggering facts. “Congress is now spending 185% of what it takes in; the deficit is a post WWII record of 13% of GDP; the debt is growing by 1% a month; the US is borrowing $1.8 trillion a year.”
Josh Harris in Towers
Josh Harris is featured in SBTS’ Towers magazine (is it a magazine? a publication? whatever…).
30 Day Husband Encouragement Challenge
That’s the name of a challenge you can read about at Revive our Hearts. It is “a challenge to speak positively to and about your husband each day.”
The Senior Pastor Model
STR writes about (another) scandal involving (another) pastor and uses it as a bridge to discuss the potential failings of the senior pastor model.

Hi Tim - thanks for directing your readers to Chernobyl then and now. I found it chilling reading and viewing.
One of the claims:The odds of a meltdown are one in 10,000 years. The plants have safe and reliable controls that are protected from any breakdown with three safety lines.
Another claim: The Titanic cannot sink.
These remind me of the false prophets’ “peace, peace, where there is no peace.” And if lulled by that the consequences are much more horrendous than even the Chernobyl Nucleur Disaster and the total tragedy of a sinking ship.
I am spurred on to be less naiive and more urgent to warn at every right opportunity. That website brought home the realities of a nucleur disaster - Jesus paid our penalty so we don’t have to face a hell indescribably more disatrous.
Now for checking out the rest of your latest blog entry….kind regards from a rainy UK (what’s new!?)
