The joy was heard far away
Nehemiah 12:43 And they offered great sacrifices that day and rejoiced, for God had made them rejoice with great joy; the women and children also rejoiced. And the joy of Jerusalem was heard far away.
Watch the Pope
I’m not sure that I get why there is a web cam aimed at a dead dude, but here it is—watch the Pope. This web cam is aimed at the tomb of Pope John Paul II. Since there are regular visitors to his tomb, at times you won’t even get to see the tomb—just the backs of the visitors.
Hmmm.

Serious Christmas Decorating
They may not represent the true meaning of Christmas, or be particularly depictive of “Silent Night, Holy Night,” but they sure are fun to watch:

Wholesome habits of photographers
As a photographer, the following quote spoke to me. I think I’ll take up this practice as well:
Photographer Helmut Newton:
“I always carry chains in the trunk of my car because you never know when you’ll need them. You know, you go out in the streets in Paris and you might want to chain a model to a fence.”

Baby Got Book
I’ve now begun posting videos so, as good as the Zimmers’ video is—this one has it beat. “I like big bibles.” What a great line.
Enjoy!

The Zimmers – My Generation
I love this video. In spite of the crude septuagenarian hand gesture at the end of the video, it just makes me smile. It can’t help but bring a grin to your face when you hear a 70-year-old man sing the lyrics “hope I die before I get old.”
I hope I have as much life as these seniors when I am their age. In fact, I’d like to have that much life in me right now.
If you have trouble viewing the video on this blog site, go to YouTube to see it.

Parents kidnap their own daughter to force an abortion
The amazing thing that I see in this story is that the writer is very concerned that the parents “kidnapped” their adult daughter against her will but seemingly unconcerned that those parents were trying to force her to murder their grandchild. A “woman’s right to choose” trumps all other rights—including the unborn baby’s Constitutionally guaranteed rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Face of Jesus appears in beer foam?
Can you see the face of Jesus |
This story is a little silly, but there are people who really believe that images of Christ or Mary on a wall, a piece of toast, or in a shadow are messages from God. So the advertising campaign that produced the image to the left is probably not a real good idea. In fact, the news article mentions the fact that there is a “worldwide trend for finding holy images in everyday objects from the face of Jesus in a frying pan, to Christ on a fish finger, the Virgin Mary on a toasted cheese sandwich and even Mother Teresa in a cinnamon bun.”
The article mentions some objections to the add campaign, although they are not the exact objections most Christians would probably have. But the story does bring up a topic we should consider when preparing our evangelistic efforts.
Finding images of Christ or the saints in everyday objects in my opinion is no more than an advanced form of Where’s Waldo? but we should probably all be prepared to present the gospel to those who think they’ve been given a message in the froth on their beer glass. These people desperately need to know the truth of Jesus Christ and what he has done for sinners. Strange shapes in beer foam aren’t going to save their souls.
