O Me of Little Faith

The month of January is named for Janus, the two-faced Roman deity of doors, gates, beginnings and endings. He’s one of the earliest gods to show up in the Roman pantheon, and he’s usually shown with his two faces looking in opposite directions — one into the past, and one into the future. It’s why…

This is the part where I turn off the lights. I’m taking a break from the blog and most forms of social media — including twitter — starting today through New Year’s. Why? Because I want to. And because I need to. And because my kids want me to watch movies with them and play…

Wrapping it up today. Read the rest of the recaps for January-April 2010 and May-August 2010.  SeptemberWe started the month by participating in the 30 bloggers, 30 days, $30K challenge with Tyler Stanton and Charity:Water.

And blogging is narcissistic anyway, so let’s not pretend we’re better than we are. Because we’re I’m not. JanuaryIn January I shared my resolutions/goals for 2010 and —…

I don’t post a whole lot about music here, but I’m in a reflective scan-the-whole year mood and was recently thinking about doubt-related music. Only weird people go into a year wondering What will be the best doubt song of 2010? I certainly didn’t. But when I hear one, it captures my attention, like Nickel…

Based on commercials now airing in Superior, Wisconsin, a local jeweler is having a Second Coming Sale. Larry Falter thinks the End of Days is imminent, so he’s pledged to offer his jewelry for 50%…maybe until Jesus comes back. “I believe we’re really close to that day,” he says in the ad. “Nonetheless, here and…

I posted a best/worst Christmas list last year and have decided to do another one for this year…but with all-new, culturally relevant bests and worsts. The long wait is over, friends. ———— Best update of How the Grinch Stole Christmas: Sue Sylvester on this year’s Christmas episode of Glee. Worst update of How the Grinch…

Jamie Wright began blogging regularly just over a year ago. She called herself “Jamie the Very Worst Missionary” and wanted to offer a candid, humorous take on life as a missionary in Costa Rica’s central valley. She succeeded, I think, far beyond her expectations. Jamie’s blog got attention out of the gate, because it was…
