Love this: “It is not unloving to do good to another for the sake of reward if part of our reward is their participation in it.” ~ John Piper Do you agree?
I think I’ve been a part of some of these groups in the past. Pretty funny vid. (HT: Pure Church) (Source: http://www.youtube.com/)

Turn an Old Credit Card into the Perfect Earbud Holder – Lifehacker
Love these clever ideas. I think it’s the Macgyver in me. Turn an Old Credit Card into the Perfect Earbud Holder – Lifehacker
Healthy Balance
I had a good run tonight with Karen and Shelby (our only surviving dog). I am so thankful I have finally been able to obtain a measure of balance in my life. For so long, I tended to focus on one area of my life, largely to the detriment of another…usually, my physical condition. I would…
Mother’s Day and More
Today is a very special day because we honor our mothers, and so to all moms we say thank you and we love you. For my own mom, it is especially unique. It was on this specific day…Mother’s Day…in 1955 that my mother gave birth to my oldest brother, Charles Silas Price, Jr. It would…
Dam-climbing Goats
This is one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen. I knew goats were good climbers, but sheesh. Dam-climbing Goats
As for you, brothers, do not grow weary in doing good. ~2 Thessalonians 3:13 ESV
An Evernote Junkie
I have been a scanning fiend lately using Evernote. I am scanning all my paper documents that are stacked everywhere and filing them electronically…and I’m throwing the paper away! Crazy, I know! I’m so tired of all the clutter that something had to be done and Evernote is allowing me to not only get rid…
Krispy Kreme!
Age Happens
I’ll be 43 next Tuesday, which doesn’t really bother me, but I’ve had a hard time accepting the fact that I really have to start using my reading glasses. Time to just deal with it, right?
Mission…Impossible?
How often do we limit ourselves based on what think we can and cannot do? “I can’t” is the rally cry of the weak. Yet, Scripture says that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” (Philippians 4:13, emphasis added) and that “we are more than conquerors through Him who loves us.” (Romans 8:37). So,…
Resurrection Weekend at The Gathering
This weekend is going to be huge in the life of The Gathering. We are going to start the weekend with an incredible time of reflection and worship at 7:00 PM Friday, celebrating Communion together. This has always been very special to our Gathering Family and this year promises to be even better! If you…
The Death of Sin
I read this morning about killing sin. Killing. Sin. Hm. Seems only fair since sin is in the business of killing us. Promising the world and delivering the grave. I had to question whether or not that is really possible. As a pastor and follower of Christ, I know that He has overcome sin, but…
My Andrew
I didn’t get online yesterday after church simply because I needed some rest and time to unplug, so I didn’t get the chance to write on here about my little Drew’s birthday. Four years ago yesterday, God so richly blessed Karen and me with a little bundle named Andrew David Price. A “Daddy’s boy” from…
Rob Bell Attempts to Explain Apparent Inconsistencies in Love Wins
MSNBC interview with Martin Bashir: What do you think? Did he adequately answer the questions or did he continue in the postmodern practice of embracing and promoting contradictory propositions? UPDATE: Listen to an excellent follow-up interview with Martin Bashir.
Love Wins, Part Deux: The Review
Borrowing the words of that great pop-philosopher, Charlie Sheen, Love Wins is a, “Duh, winner!” Not so fast. Would anybody else second that? Depends on your theological persuasion. Love wins has been reviewed now and the verdict is about the same as before: If you’re interested in Universalism, this book is for you. If you’re…
Who Wins?
So, Rob Bell, young evangelical’s favorite controversial expounder of questionable truth, has a new book coming out. For the record, no, I’m not a fan and, yes, I’m fine with you knowing that. In the stream of what has emerged as the emergent church movement in which the Gospel is regularly compromised and a kinder,…
Do The Big Rocks First: Some Great Time-Management Advice
I saw this on Michael Hyatt’s blog and wanted to share it with you. The video is a little dated and it’s a simple concept, but one I too often miss. It’s a great illustration of how important prioritizing life is and (along with checking out Michael’s blog) is well worth your time.
Balance
This year for me is all about balance. I’m trying very hard to seek “moderation in all things” and imbalance in none. That’s a huge challenge for me! So far, though, I’m eating right, working out regularly, finding consistency in Scripture reading, and working towards balance between work, family and personal time. That last one…
