The past week saw a bit of relief for us on the income freeze. I think I have mentioned here that the summer was quite a financial drought. Not many (maybe there weren’t any?) of my current clients needed any substantial work done on their existing sites, and not much new business came in. We…
Life With God
Not Like Us
I was thinking about life this morning, in the shower… as I usually do. Sometimes it’s the mundane “what do I have to do today” kind of stuff, other times it’s “meaning of life” kinda stuff. I suppose it was the latter today. We’re still in a pretty good pinch financially. We have some temporary…
Mormons, Catholics, Santeras… Oh my!
So, the other night I was going through our video podcasts, getting caught up on the ones I hadn’t yet seen. There’s a little blue dot next to the new ones, it’s really cool. (We use FrontRow on our Mac Mini, hooked up to our TV in our living room.) We watch probably 8-10 different…
Alone
I’m alone today. Grandma & Grandpa took Jen & the kids to the NY State Fair today! I have some new projects I am working on, and a Bills show to record tonight, so I stayed here. It’s very weird, having no one around. Especially when there are always five other people here. 🙂 Well,…
What Belongs To God
Our Bible reading in the mornings has been somewhat sporadic this summer, but hey, we’re still making it through the book of Luke just fine. A nice slow and easy pace. 🙂 Today we got to a familiar story. Jesus was out in public and some “spies” were sent to trip him up in his…
Have a Listen
I believe I have mentioned this here before, but with today’s (latest) chapter/episode, I felt it was worth repeating. I am working on creating an audio version of my book, “There’s The Steeple… Here’s The Church“, and have been publishing a chapter at a time via a podcast available at gregshead.net/church as well as iTunes….
You Read My Mind
I feel like I have shared too many times on this here blog how money is tight for us, or just stories of how we could use a bit more cash. I certainly hope they never come across as ungrateful. And definitely not as a ploy to encourage donations or product purchase. (Though you are…
Spirit-led Praying
I have trouble with prayer a lot of times. Especially when I call it prayer. I very much enjoy a steady dialogue with God throughout my day, but when it comes to “praying for someone” or even just asking for myself… I’m still not certain how best to do that. See, it seems to me…
Seeker
I Stumbled Upon a site today that offered a short questionaire about how you “experience the Holy“. It was an interesting question that I seldom ask – certainly not often with that wording. So I took it. According to the test, I am a “Seeker”. Click on the little canoe to read what that’s all…
Where Do You Apply Grace?
Lately due to many different factors, our children have been both extra tired, and definitely extra tiresome. They have been frustrating both Jen and me in various (mostly little) ways. Silly, childish things… but whether they are “just kids” or not, they are still frustrating. And after a build up of lots of small things……
