One of the most amazing things to me in all of God’s creation is the butterfly. From gross slimy larvae, to slightly cuter (but still sort of gross) worms, to goo inside a cocoon, to a beautifully colored, light and delicate airborne display of it’s Designer’s creativity. It is truly incredible. But this post is…

Born in the now distant land of Springfield, OH, and raised in Caracas, Venezuela, I met my future wife Jen in the 8th grade in Earth Science (she was the girl with the big hair and glasses across the room...) Now reside in Palmyra, NY after having found ourselves residing in various homes and domiciles all over the country as we traveled and sang about the Kingdom of God with our growing brood of kids in tow. I now get to design websites and other things graphical for folks around me, as well as sell Apple (Computer) products to anyone who may be interested.

Unpredictable
Life is full of unpredictability. We can often live under the illusion that we know what’s coming, that we are in control, but really… life throws you a curveball more often than not. And that includes the NFL. 😉 As you may know, if you’ve frequented this blog, the Campbell family enjoy a weekly seasonal…
Programming of Life
Wow! We just finished watching this video (which is available in its entirety at their website, where you can also order the DVD). It was produced by some friends of ours, and man, they did a fantastic job. It’s the incredible story of the cell, DNA and all the “building blocks” of life. Just so…
Beautiful Skies
I truly love the beauty of the fall season. This was the view out of my third-story window today. A very dark sky on the horizon, with fluffier white clouds above and blue sky (and sun) behind. And this was just minutes after a wet, heavy snow was showering down on us. It’s more than…
Local Politics
If you’re like me, you got a sticker similar to this a couple days ago at your local polling booth. (Our son, Ian, was with me, and he actually got my sticker.) It is your badge of honor for participating in our great representative governmental system. This year may not have been the more exciting,…
Testing The System: Failure?
Curious as to the scope and effectiveness of the Nationwide Emergency Alert System test scheduled for 2pm EST today, I did a little research. A quick scan of various news sources seems to suggest it didn’t go off “without a hitch”. ABC News out of DC reports that the first-ever nationwide test today “appeared to…
So Cliché
It’s football season, and this year’s campaign is no different than any other. Each team is going to be taking it one game at a time, giving 110%, and leaving it all on the field, hoping to come away with a victory. When the game begins, when the chips are down, if you’ve put in…
Clocks
Sometimes in life, you just have to take the bad with the good. I’ve always loved the “fall back” Sunday, where you get an hour of your life back. Who couldn’t use an extra hour!? Either another hour of sleep in the morning, or really, whatever suits your fancy! The extra hour was always especially…
Whispers
I am hearing whispers on the wind. Signs that life may return to these pages. Evidence on the horizon that this keyboard will once again freely bring forth thoughts long subdued. Could it be? Dare I hope? I do. I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill [me] completely with joy and peace…
It’s Just a Long Way Home
Steven Curtis Chapman has a new album out. It’s called Re:Creation (I think because many of the songs on the album are new versions of old songs, some are really good! Others will take getting used to…) But for now I’m not talking about the whole album. Just a song (or two). I started listening…
