Prayer
11/14/11- As you know, Mormonism is all over the news. San Antonio is one of the test markets for the, “I am a Mormon” campaign. Please pray for more speaking engagements so that we can inform people about the differences between Mormonism and Christianity.
11/7/11- Typically things slow down in November, but that is not the case this year. Mormonism has been in the media because of the two Mormon Presidential candidates and that keeps us very busy.
We also have a number of exciting projects and opportunities coming up in the near future. Please PRAY that we prioritize and keep up with everything during this busy time of the year. Thanks for praying and may God bless you for His glory!
Gingrich: I’m Deeply Worried
All I can say about this video is, WOW! Why doesn’t the rest of the political world acknowledge this?

I just read excerpts of Joel Osteen’s interview on Larry King Live. The showed aired October 16, 2007. About three quarters of the way down the page, the conversation turns towards Romney. KING: How do you feel about Mitt Romney and being a Mormon? Would thataffect whether you vote for him or not? J. OSTEEN: Well, you know what? I look at people, their character, their values, what they stand for. And I know only Mitt from watching him on your program and reading a couple of articles about him. And I don’t think that that would...

We got back from the Witnesses Now For Jesus Convention last night and are taking some of the day off to spend with the kids. I took the dog for a walk this morning and the kids came along. Our son wanted to be like Daddy so he put on a hat too. He decided to get silly so he put the hat on sideways. Our daughter laughed and told him that he looked cute. His reply was, “That’s just the way God made me, thanks!” *******Important note: We will not reveal the names of our children on this blog. Any comment that mentions our...

In the morning we leave for New Ringgold, Pennsylvania for the 2007 WNFJ convention. We will be staying at the Blue Mountain Christian Retreat center. We look forward to meeting new friends and reconnect with some old ones. There will be many wonderful testimonials and teachings from some great speakers. This year I’ll be speaking during the Sunday service and have the privilege of conducting the communion service. If you know anything about JWs, they are forbidden to partake of the emblems. This fact alone makes this service very...

“Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin. God lifts you up, takes you inand washes all the dirt off of you. He opens you up, touches you deep inside and scoops out all of the yucky stuff– including the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc. Then He carves you a new smiling face and puts His light inside you to shine for all the world to see.” The above is found on a little flyer that University United Methodist Church gives away to all those who come by to look at their pumpkins. Every year UUMC sells pumpkins right on the...

As many of you know, our daughter has been doing ballet for months. She really enjoys it and is practicing all of the time. We wanted to find something for our son to do also so Becky thought about a six week class of Tae Kwon Do at a local martial arts academy that is designed for four and five year olds. I practiced this martial art myself 20 years ago so it was something that I could help him learn. As soon as the class ended, they lined the kids up and gave each of them a stamp on the hand. I didn’t notice it until we got home, but...

I’ve added a new blog to my Personal Blogs section on the right side bar. It is titled, “Bloggity-Blog-Blog-Blog.” Randy and Heather Gauthier are friends of ours who left San Antonio for South Africa. Randy is pursuing a doctorate. If I remember correctly, it is in Biblical languages. Since Randy is busy with his studies, Heather has been keeping up with their blog. Heather has got to be one of the most creative people we have ever met. She can completely redecorate an apartment with very little money. We visited them once...
read moreDon’t Study Your Bible!
I was going through my inbox and deleting old e-mail when I came across one that I had forgotten about. An ex-JW friend of mine sent me a scan of a recent Watchtower publication that is causing quite a stir. It seems like the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society doesn’t want Jehovah’s Witnesses studying the Bible. The September, 2007 issue of the “Kingdom Ministry” warns JWs from conducting their own study of the Scriptures and compares it to “foolish questionings.” Click on this image to see a larger version...
read moreFun At Sea World
Sea World of San Antonio hosted a neat little thing today. They opened up some of the animal exhibits to the families of homeschoolers. From 9:30 until 1:30 we had access to the dolphins, sharks, clydesdales, sea lions, walrus’ and killer whales. For eight bucks a head we could watch the animals and were also treated to shortened versions of a couple of their shows. My favorite part is the dolphins because you are able to feed them fish and even touch them if they swim up close enough to you. As you can see, I got some really good...
