Well, I waited patiently as Psalm 40 asks me to. And it finally got here…Quickverse for Mac! So I opened to packaging it came in. I installed it and it’s…not that great! I’m disappointed. Let me start off by saying that I’m old school Quickverse. I’ve been using it for about 10 years. But it just looks like they didn’t really put a lot of effort into it. What do I mean? Here is my own version of a FAQ page: Why is it bad? Great question. It’s bad because the program isn’t integrated like the previous versions of Quickverse. … Read More
Mr. 5,000
I just checked my stats and I just passed 5,000 hits. That would make me a shoe-in for the Baseball Hall of Fame if those were base-hits, but they are blog hits and I don’t believe there are any awards for that. I know it’s not a huge deal, but I really enjoy doing this blog and if you are one of the 5,000 hits, thanks for reading…
Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic…
After some encouragement and a little prodding, my beautiful wife Carey has decided to start her own blog. It’s going to be great. My wife is an amazing person that is breaking the mold of what a Pastor’s wife is "supposed to be". No, she doesn’t play the piano and lead worship. Instead, she shoots and edits video and is writing a screenplay. You’re going to love her blog. She’s got great insights and you’ll find everything from ministry insights, to recipes, to stories she’s written, and personal stories she’s experienced. So stop by and say ‘hi’ to the prettiest … Read More

Can’t Catch a Break!
So I went to see the Marlin’s tonight. The game was great. The seats were great (Thanks Mike), and the Marlin’s won! But it eluded me again: catching a baseball. I am a hopeless optimist (Is that an oxymoron?) at the beginning of a game. I firmly believe that “Tonight’s my night” and I’m finally going to catch one. Yet this quest has become like Ahab’s obsession with catching Moby Dick, or Monty Python’s crew finding the Holy Grail (“What else floats?” “Very small rocks!”). But it hasn’t happened yet. While I can deal with that most of the time, … Read More
Name That movie – Clue
Since no one could figure out the quote from one of the best high school movies ever, I’m forced to do what I’ve never had to do in the brief history of my blog and that is “give a clue.” The original quote was “They speak the international language…the language of love.” The clue is: the “love” being spoken of here is that of a chubby kid named Ricky and foreign exchange student Monique. This is a total give away. You’ve got to know this by now…
Name that Movie
“They speak the international language…The language of love!” (Remember, no googling or search engine-ing of any kind) Enjoy!
Top 5 People I’d like to have Lunch with…
My wife had the idea of who are the top 5 people I’d like to have lunch with (This list if all people who are living. the next list will be people who aren’t living) , so here’s the list… #5 – John Mayer – John is amazing song writer, and an extremely talented guitar player. He seems like a cool guy to hang with. #4 – Theo Epstein – If you don’t know who this is, you obviously don’t live anywhere near Boston. Theo is the general manager of the Boston Red Sox. I met Theo in Tampa and … Read More
I’ve Officially joined the Band wagon
Since Gary and Scott have let us know about what they’re thinking about, I decided to write down what I’m thinking about too and officially join the band wagon. Why? Mostly because I don’t want to feel left out… 1. I need to go to the mall to buy a pair of brown pants 2. I’m a jerk because my friend Bill’s birthday was yesterday and I didn’t call him3. Will I ever be able to eat sugar cereal again?4. I really want to get a hot chocolate at Starbuck’s 5. Why are there no good movies out?6. When is … Read More
Message Prep – Mac Style
Well, it’s finally out! All Mac users can finally sleep easy at night because Quickverse for Mac is now shipping. You can check it out here. Thisis a great thing. I’ve been a Quickverse user for years, so to see them step up before Logos does is a great thing. This should be a great resource (I just placed my order) and it should get you non-Mac users to finally get right with God and take the step into the Mac world. Let’s be honest, it’s just cooler to own a Mac!
