It has been a little while since I've put any pictures up of Ethan... So, I figured I'd post one!

I saw this yesterday... I thought it was great!

This is Ethan's Rocky pose. Sometimes you almost don't want to wake them... they're just so cute and peaceful. Here's another great one...

This truly is the most wonderful time of the year! And this year there is much to be thankful for. A beautiful wife, a wonderful son, a great family, a new house, the best friends, an awesome church. God is so good and greatly to be praised!

Well, it's taken several weeks, but my Line Upon Line podcast is back up and running. If you had subscribed to it before you'll need to delete the feed in iTunes (or whatever program you may be using) and re-subscribe.

Have you ever seen anything so cute? (him of course... not me) I honestly never knew that you could love so much... Don't misunderstand, I love my wife so very much, but this love for our son is different (I'm quite sure that any parent will understand that). We had a scare early yesterday morning. Andrea got up to feed Ethan and as she was walking down the stairs at 4am she slipped on the

The election is over and I for one am thankful that it is. The signs are going away, the commercials are done, the door hangers will not be found for at least a little while... but now let there be anger and outrage! The 2008 election season will most certainly go down in the books as a big win for Democrats and those leaning toward a liberal worldview; there is of course but one major

I stumbled upon this earlier this morning and found it rather interesting. During his presidency, Dwight Eisenhower had Ezra Taft Benson as his agriculture secretary. Benson would later go on to be the president of the LDS church — kind of interesting. But the below audio was given by Benson in 1965 as he referenced an conversation he had had with one of Russia's leaders (Kruschev). Click

If you have a few minutes I recommend that you read Jonathan Rosenblum's article at Jerusalem Post, "Think Again: The end of the special relationship?" Many Bible students that hold a 'futurists' view of Prophecy have wondered what might move America away from its pro-Israel foreign policy stance in the last day's. Rosenblum identifies one possibility, which may begin to come to pass as soon as

The thought and idea of having a baby was an easy one for Andrea... for me, not so much. In fact for a couple of months I didn't even want to talk about the subject (a "moratorium" of sorts). Three days of actually having Ethan and I cannot imagine my world without him. Don't misunderstand - I'm just beginning to barley scratch the surface as to the change that is taking place as a result of

I think I can honestly say that this has been the most difficult, awe inspiring day of my life! Ethan was born at 11:39pm on the 25th... 7 lbs 13 oz and 21 inches. God is truly gracious and good. Andrea is doing well - and at 2:15am Ethan is well, asleep in my other arm as I type on my iPhone :)

$700,000,000,000.00 It is just such a huge number. At current count that puts the bill at about $2,300.00 per American (cencus.gov puts our current population at 305,259,245). It is kind of interesting that this $700 billion number keeps coming up. Last week 401k retirement accounts lost $700 billion in one day. We are are also being told that we are sending $700 billion overseas for energy

Praise the Lord, we have been given the keys to our first home! I can now say - from experience- that escrow is not fun, but God is good!

A couple of weeks ago we saw the government bail out of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, which from what I can tell effectively nationalized those lending institutions. Today we have seen an $85 billion bail out loan for AIG, one of the largest mortgage insurers in America. This loan essentially gives the US government a 79.9% stake in the company and the option or right to remove and replace AIG's

This evening Keith Olbermann, the host of MSNBC's Countdown asked, "Is America ready for a Vice President that attends a church that speaks in tongues, believes in the rapture and prays to God to help build pipelines." It appears that in Mr. Olbermann's mind trusting God for provision, believing that He will one day return and in the reality of spiritual gifts is "a little over the top for

Like many Americans I have listened to a good number of political speeches over the last two weeks. Nearly 40 million of us listened to Senator Obama speak at the Democratic Convention last week... and almost the same amount listened to Governor Palin last night at the Republican Convention. All the speeches have been well crafted. Some have had a better delivery than others. I listened to

Even if some don't like Sarah Palin, they had to like this moment.
