Science: National Geographic interviews creationist and Christian Francis Collins.

Technology: This guy nicely sums up my feelings about Macs. “Macs are glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people who earnestly believe in feng shui.”

Pastors: Paul finishes a short series on the pastor as leader.

Photo: Interesting photos of a rare phenomenon.

Sports: The Christian Post highlights an interesting quote by Tony Dungy after winning the Superbowl.

Nick Has Been with the Lord for 5 Years

I can’t say why it is that we place extra emphasis on anniversaries that are multiples of five. Why does five years seem more significant than six or 20 than 21? It’s a strange custom, yet one we all acknowledge and accept. And on that note, today marks the fifth anniversary of the day my…

Last week I shared 18 Things I Will Not Regret Doing With My Kids, and the time I spent writing that article got me thinking about the fifteen years I’ve been married to Aileen (and the three years before that when we dated). I felt it was only right to think of another eighteen things,…
