Kris and I finished watching the Genesis and the State of the Culture speech that Ken Ham and Dr. Georgia Purdom gave at the University of Central Oklahoma. To give some context, the LGBT group at UCO tried to stop Ken Ham from giving this speech. At some point the student body that invited him … Read more
I recently switched to MobaXterm Professional from PuTTY. And I’m not looking back… A PuTTY Alternative I had just re-installed Windows 10 to fix an updating issue. As I was downloading PuTTY I thought: there has got to be something better than PuTTY. PuTTY is a good program, but it doesn’t do four things for … Read more
I bought Eli his first gun, a Daisy Buck Model 105. It is very similar in function to lever action rifles (lever action works the same, cross-bolt safety is the same) so it’s a great starter gun to teach proper firearm handling and safety. It was $18 at Walmart but has quality where it counts. … Read more

Beauty in God’s creation. Sunday morning I walked outside to see all my trees covered in small inch long gravity defying icicles. But they’re not icicles. Click on the images to get a larger size. Touching one they’re more like snow than ice. I’m not sure if this is hoarfrost or rime. It melted away … Read more
Merry Christmas! In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. … Read more
Happy 500th Reformation Day! The Reformation did not begin with Luther. Rather it can be traced back as far as 1200 A.D. with Peter Waldo (who was forced to live in hiding), then John Wycliff (labeled a heretic), and John Hus (who was burned at the stake).
