Thanks to all those who downloaded wallpaper yesterday, and to all those who made others aware of it through social media. It’s much appreciated. I’ll be sending along a few gift certificates as a means of expressing gratitude.

    It’s Okay To Be a Two-Talent Christian

    It is for good reason that we have both the concept and the word average. To be average is to be typical, to be—when measured against points of comparison—rather unremarkable. It’s a truism that most of us are, in most ways, average. The average one of us is of average ability, has average looks, will…
