The Current Crisis and The Coming Opportunity

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

There is no denying the fact that the church in America has reached a low point. Our nation, settled by and built by Christians in 1600’s, has lost faith in the Triune God and we are reaping the wirlwind we deserve. Culture is religion externalized, the polytheistic idolatrous culture that we now […]

Camping Trip

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Thursday evening after milking the older boys and I took off for the first camping trip of the summer. We needed some good old “camp fire therapy”. It was fun, we got camp built pretty quick and gathered a good supply of fire wood. We ate, target shot, sang a few psalms […]

I while back I wrote about Psalm singing and some of you bought a copy of The Book of Psalms for Singing from Crown and Covenant. If you happen to be like me, and music notes are as readable as Latin this might be of some help. The RP church has put up […]

Greed and Gas

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

Broome county NY, the peaceful hill country that I call home, is becoming very popular as of late. The big natural gas companies are swarming in offering riches beyond your wildest dreams and a poor rural population is giddy with joy. Seems we all sit on a big shale formation that has lots […]

Hot and Busy

Saturday, June 7th, 2008
