Obama world…

On the front page of the Huffington Post this morning… According to the article just about every country surveyed people around the world largely prefer Barack Obama as President. Yet the rare instance he’s tied with John McCain is in the United States. Why is that? Are people around the world just less informed? infatuated [...]

Give it up Hillary…

A great photo of the Obamas watching Clinton’s speech. What must be going through their minds? I can’t believe she’s not conceding nor suspending her campaign. Is she making her case for VP?

The Audacity of Hope

I’ve never followed politics much, let alone American politics. But I like Obama. Catapulted to fame at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, he’s hard not to like. See the big speech at youtube part1 and part2. I’ve been skimming through his book “The audacity of hope” and it offers an inside look into the mind [...]

Canada verus the U.S.

For five years I’ve waited and asked the administration for a church planting course at Tyndale Seminary. It still hasn’t happened. Church planting courses are in our academic calendar, but they haven’t been offered supposedly due to a lack of interest. This semester I decided to enroll as a visiting student to Heritage Seminary for [...]
