What I'm...

Coming to you in groups of 4 (and sometimes 5s)

Reading

1. Old Testament Theology by Bruce Waltke
-a textbook that is simply deep

2. The Preacher's Portrait by John Stott
- 115 pages that is blowing my mind
- exploring the preacher as steward, herald, etc.

3. Knowing God by JI Packer
- the first book I read after I got saved
- deep, insightful, and riveting

4. The Resurrection of the Son of God by NT Wright
- a thick pill

5. Just Added - The Reason for God by Tim Keller
- only 2 chapters in but a very important book for folks living and ministering in non/post Christian contexts

Listening To

1. mp3 - Old and New Testament Theology with Bruce Waltke and Gordon Fee (from Regent Seminary)

2. mp3 - History and Theology of the Puritans by JI Packer (Reformed Theological Seminary)

3. Music - John Mayer - Try (great live album with Pino Palladino on bass)

4. Music - I hate to admit it, but Amy Winehouse it is.

Desiring

1. God

2. More quality time with Lynn, Obadiah and Maranatha

3. More love both for God and people

4. A permanent home for Calvary North Bay

Pondering

Your blog is read! :)

I look forward to hanging some more and jammin'.

I'm really praying to secure a position at the Community Center with the office aide position. Keep me in prayer for that.
