Links & Blinks

Aaaaaand...I'm back! I'm back due to popular demand. And by that I mean, my wife is beautiful and incredible and she likes reading my work, so here I am. Let's see what we have for today, shall we?

Abe has three new tattoos: Faith, Hope & Love. Here are the pics.

Know what my favourite daily blog is? Doug Smith's Toronto Raptors blog. This guy's been with the team since it's inception and he's with the players and coaches constantly. He has great insight and a huge and very loyal following. In fact, he just hit ten million page views last week and that's quite the impressive milestone.

Did God really say...? My dad ponders the original meaning of words like tithe, talents, Sabbath and church. How do we use (or misuse) these words today?

When is an war veteran like a former pastor? When they both suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Read this blog by a long-time pastor as he talks about protecting a wife from her abusive husband - and how doing the right thing just blew up in his face. It's a first-hand account from inside the walls of church, showing the often harsh reality behind the pleasant Sunday morning smiles.
