Faith Comes By Hearing

Long ago and far away in a land populated with street lights and police helicopters, lived two men named Jim and Bud. Their wives met working together and became friends. Jim and Bud became friends too and enjoyed relaxing on the weekends with Frisbees, racquet balls, and decks of cards. Eventually Bud left the land of street lights and police helicopters, and after a few years the two friends never saw one another at all. All this happening in the time before Facebook and email, they lost touch, and went their separate ways. Oh, of course they could have called or written, but they didn't. Well, Jim called once and tried to set up a visit, but Bud had some lame reason not to get together. Eventually though, many years later, they did get together a few times. It was good. No Frisbee, no racquet balls, no cards. Just stories and catching up. Well, the last Bud knew Jim was working with an organization called Faith Comes By Hearing, whose mission is to make audio Bibles available to people all over the world.

Wycliffe Bible Translators

Once upon a time in a land not very far away there lived a young man that wanted to become a Bible translator for a group of people in the world that did not have the Bible in their own language yet. Although this particular young man ended up going a different direction in life, he maintained his admiration for those who did go down that path, and wants to share about an organization whose mission is to make God's Word available to every language group in the world. At the time of this writing there is a link at the upper right to the organization—Wycliffe Bible Translators.

Puzzled

Puzzled? What is so puzzling? All the twisty puzzles on my desk. Various Rubik's cube type puzzles with a multitude of sticker variations. Different dimensions from 2x2x2 to the V-Cube 7x7x7. And really different dimensions like a 2x2x4, 3x3x1, 3x3x2, 2x3x4, 4x4x6. Different shapes too like tetrahedrons, octahedrons, and dodecahedrons. It goes on. Then there are the circle puzzles—not round puzzles—puzzles with circles on the faces, in which some of the pieces in the circle move with the face and on other faces they don't. Shape-shifting puzzles, jumbling puzzles, it goes on and on. Puzzled.

New Blog

There is a trail of blogs and sites that I created over the years that is bothering me. Incomplete. Abandoned. So what to do about it? Abandon the latest and start a new one!
