Yesterday marked the 39th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision to overturn anti-miscegenation laws. That is not ancient history, it’s just a short time ago. When some of your parent’s where getting married they could not have married a person of a different race (actually only whites and other races couldn’t marry, a black person could happily marry a Korean person).

It’s also crazy that so many people don’t even realize that this case exists — that at one time, it was illegal …

LOVE: Acts 4:32-34 . John 13:35 . Mark 12:29-31
-love God, love others
-not easy, but real
-service, sacrifice, selfless, unwavering

“Love one Another” is probably one of the most repeated phrases in the New Testament (particularly by this John fellow). And then you got that Love God, Love others stuff Jesus talks about. I start to get the impression that when you boil it all down, if you had to summarize this whole gospel thing, God thing into one word it would have …

It was a fairly busy weekend and unfortunately I didn’t take much time to sit down and write. I have a LOT of things on my mind that I want to write about, it’s just a matter of finding the time.
Lord willing I’ll have a little time Monday afternoon but we’ll see.
Just to wet your appetite and keep you guessing, here are some titles for possible upcoming posts:

The idea …

So I’ve experienced quite a bit of traffic on this site in the last week or so.

-movement
-our story

Jesus says “As…” God has sent …

I’m curious about this movie…

(I had to watch that darn movie three times in a row in high school English)

Credit Cards- I posted a while back inquiring and pondering whether credit cards where really worth having around. I’ve found them beneficial in that I’ve received a couple hundred dollars in cash rebates and I’ve only paid a couple dollars in fees (due to my negligence). …
