Bearded madness


Hi guys. I am growing a beard. Well...at least for the next few weeks. I will post pictures as we progress.

Today is day 6 of not having shaved. Be afraid. I am.

Review: Wrestling With An Angel

Haven’t reviewed a book in a while. So a miracle has happened and I have indeed finished a book and feel good enough about it to actually write something concerning it. Most of the time, when I finish reading a book I usually don’t have a strong compulsion to want to tell people to go out and read it right away. This however is not the case with “Wrestling With An Angel”. This book by author Greg Lucas has become one of the touchstone books of my life. I don’t think I am saying that too lightly.

(2015) Agonized over my mom breaking her hip (2013) Placed my autistic younger brother into the care of a group home (2013) Cars are driving themselves, Mars has water, oh and a new Star Wars is coming out this year. What in the world?! In all the ups and downs, God has been faithful and good. Hear, hear.

Odd Findings

It is very odd, the places you find yourself on a day to day basis in the Philippines. One day you might find yourself teaching the unruly bunch of kindergarten students, the next, you could be speaking in front of a crowd of 750. Furthermore, in continuing the pattern of seemingly (not) random activities we've participated in; we rode in a motorcade/parade through the city. Never really anticipated doing that, but its National Nutrition Month here and we are participating in a 'Values and Ethics Formation Program' here. (AKA: VBS). It was...an odd experience riding through the city with Mr. and Mrs. Nutrition. Another day in the Philippines I guess. -jr
