Graduate School…

Lincoln Christian College And SeminaryI have applied to Lincoln Christian Seminary in hopes of beginning my graduate work in August of this year. While I have received affirmation concerning financial aid, I have not yet received a Letter of Acceptance so I may be counting my chickens before they hatch. My plan is to pursue a Master of Divinity degree with a specialization in Christian apologetics. While I have not made a final decision, I may also pursue a Master of Religious Education degree at the same time.

In addition to graduate classes I will also be teaching my three boys using the Weaver Curriculum this fall, and I continue to fill the pulpit at Isabel Christian church. Because of these obligations I will only be attending classes part time for the foreseeable future at 6 hours per semester.

UPDATE: I recieved my Letter of Acceptance today, and will begin course work in the first week of September.

Pandora On iPhone And iPod Touch…

PandoraI don’t have an iPhone or and iPod Touch, but now there is one more reason to think abou it. Pandora is now available for the iPhone and the iPod Touch! Free, comercial free, customized music anytime and anywhere (WiFi connection needed for iPod Touch). This will certainly help out those running out of room for all their music…now they can listen to without putting it on the device.

Covenant Transport…

Covenant TransportCovenant Transport is a Christian owned and operated trucking company out of Tennessee. If you live in the Midwest you have probably seen one of their trucks with the blue rectangle on the back door that reads, “ITS NOT A CHOICE ITS A CHILD”. A few days ago I saw one of these truck that had been vandalized. The words ITS NOT A CHOICE ITS A CHILD had been marked through, and underneath was written, “I don’t judge you!”

What really irritates me about this is not so much that someone out there believes abortion is ok, but that they are a) ignorant enough to not understand the self-defeating characteristic of their own comments, and b) are willing to commit a crime (vandalism) in order to deface the first amendment rights of someone else. Of course it upsets me that people believe abortion is a valid option, but the point here is that if people are unable to think critically enough to avoid ignorance of this kind, it is not surprising when we cannot explain the fallacious nature of abortion to them.
