Bugs…

Date August 17, 2007

I’m still running into some issues with the hosting space and wordpress, but things will have to do for now.
Ever have those moments when you’ve spent way too much time obsessing over something, and you just knew there were better things you could be doing?

Back online…

Date August 15, 2007

After being down for over 3 days, I’ve finally switched to a legitimate web space provider (1and1.com).
Thanks to those of you who emailed and commented on how it was a ’solar crashing’.
A friend of mine, ebrian, agreed to co-purchase some online real-estate with me making this site a lot more worthwhile.  The site should be [...]

The Scriptures…

Date August 10, 2007

I’ve just been thrilled reading the Scriptures recently.  I think it might be because I’m not currently in school and studying the Bible.  Rather I’ve simply been allowing for it to speak again.
The audacity of some of the things written in these sacred scriptures are just mind-blowing.  It’s sad that so often the academia of [...]

CT poll on Taliban and South Koreans

Date August 8, 2007

From a poll on Christianity Today

I just can’t believe almost a quarter of Christians (who I would assume are somewhat informed since they’re online and reading) would say that this is not the U.S. government’s problem. ‘We don’t have the resources’ or ‘its beyond our control’, I would understand, but the suffering of any [...]

On humility…

Date August 7, 2007

This weekend I spoke from Philippians 2 on humility at Mosaic Baptist I’m always amazed at how God continues to speak to me even as I trip and stumble through life. I find it such a joy to be able to share with others what God’s been speaking into my life. I’ve [...]

Rev.Lon

Date August 6, 2007

If I ever get ordained and become a Reverand, I’ve got my branding down.

I’m not sure if I really want to be associated with a woman’s hair product, but it sure looks cool.
My thought of the day:  Do I really believe that I can make a living doing what I do best  and enjoy?  And [...]

A few updates…

Date August 3, 2007

This week I visited Sanctuary downtown Toronto which is doing incredible work that I just love. I’ll have to share more of what I learned there sometime.
This weekend I’ll be speaking at Mosaic Baptist. Towards the end of the month I’ll be speaking at East Toronto Chinese Baptist Church and Chinese Evangelical [...]

Blessings?

Date August 3, 2007

Ever wonder if what we call blessings from God, might actually just be greed, selfishness, and sin on our part?

Parenting…

Date August 3, 2007

Do you have friends who’ve had children and it seems like they’ve given up on living their own lives?
Everything is suddenly about their children, and its as if they’ve transferred all of their own hopes and dreams onto these unsuspecting kids. Sometimes I’m tempted to just throw in the towel myself, just be a [...]

Neighborhoods…

Date August 1, 2007

Yvonne and I have been looking into new neighborhoods.  We’ve been doing some street walks downtown as the urban core has been pulling at our hearts.
For us it simply makes more sense to be living in a more local context, commuting less, and working and playing in a common community.  It also makes less and [...]
