• Monochrome Monday: Aggieland

    I always enjoy being able to take photos at Texas A&M University. It is where I really had my photography skills refined back in the late 1980s when I was a student in the journalism department. Going back with a digital camera is a delight. I was using a Canon… Listen ⇢

  • In Defense of Blogging: In Defense of the Faith

    Originally posted in July 2011, but still quite applicable for today. In the past year or so, I have been really challenged as to why I write on the topics that I do. The challenge by some has been: since you are a pastor, then you should only write about… Listen ⇢

  • Thursday Doors: Saturday Edition — Wash Out

    I still haven’t figured out why these photos came out the way they did. I’ve looked at the info section of the photos, and it all seems normal. After I adjusted them a bit in the editor, I ended up really liking them. I was going to use them for… Listen ⇢

  • Thursday Doors: Holiday Edition

    Merry Christmas! Dan gave us the Holiday theme for this edition of Thursday doors, and I thought I would do Christmas for my holiday of choice. It wasn’t an easy decision. Kwanza ran a close second (tongue in cheek). The real reason to celebrate Christmas is the reminder of the… Listen ⇢

    Heidi and I took off for an evening over in Nacogdoches again. We were meeting up with a pastor and his wife on Saturday night, and then attending church on Sunday morning. In the meantime, after our last visit there and the experience of staying in a disComfort Inn Suites,… Listen ⇢

  • Thursday Doors: Brick Streets and Tall Steeples

    I once loved church buildings. Not so much any more. I have reasons for this dislike. A lot of it has to do with the fact that once you build a magnificent building, even though you did so for the glory of God, the building becomes the center of focus,… Listen ⇢

  • The Marching Band

    It says something about a high school marching band when fans attend Friday night games, just to see the bands. I got to see my son’s marching band recently, and another marching band at another high school game, and was quite impressed with the two of the four marching bands.… Listen ⇢

  • Inside Kyle Field

    This past Saturday, I had to go down to my father’s place in Brenham for some family business, and since we did not need to be there until around 5:30 or 6 p.m., I took the opportunity to take Andy and Joey to a Texas A&M football game. The last… Listen ⇢
