“Halp Us Jon Carry!”

Despite Senator John Kerry’s insulting remarks about U.S. soldiers in Iraq (see previous post), I’m glad to see that our G.I. Joe’s haven’t lost their sense of humor.

The New York Post has the story about the picture: “GI’s Drop Smart Bomb on Kerry.” Continue Reading →

The Top 50 Books That Have Shaped Evangelicals

Learning Conversational PrayerChristianity Today has compiled a list of the “The Top 50 Books That Have Shaped Evangelicals.” The fifty books they selected are billed as the “Landmark titles that changed the way we think, talk, witness, worship, and live.” What book do you think would be number one on a list like this one? If you guessed C. S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity, you would be wrong (#3). You would also be wrong if you guessed J. I. Packer’s Knowing God (#5), Carl Henry’s Uneasy Conscience (#15), or even John Piper’s Desiring God (#39). The number one book that has shaped modern evangelicals is Learning Conversational Prayer by Rosalind Rinker. Continue Reading →

Another Hilarious Video

Smitty - My good friend Barry Joslin has brought to my attention another parody video. This is from the 2006 Purpose-Driven Worship Conference.I thought this one would be worth passing on to you. Well, actually, I don’t know if it’s worth anything. But I figured if you liked the “Get in Here Ministries” parody, then you might like this one too.

Here it is: Smitty – “Filled with the Spirit”

After seeing this, I’m sure you will all make sure that your worship leader is at next year’s “Purpose-Driven Worship Conference.” Or maybe not.

Can Nowitzki Channel Hasselhoff While Shooting Jump Shots?

David Hasselhoff, I am a sucker for the underdog, and therefore I am a sucker for our hometeam, the Dallas Mavericks. I was a manager at the Mavericks’ practice facility back in the bad old days when they used to lose all the time. It was really sad back then when they just couldn’t get a break.But now things have changed, and all of us here in Dallas have our hopes set on a championship. Yet after watching the Mavs lose a heartbreaker on Tuesday and an ego-crusher on Thursday, many of us are beginning to feel that sinking feeling in our stomachs again.

Those of us who are fans know that the sinking stomach might be more than a feeling as long as our players are getting suspended and Dirk Nowitzki is shooting poorly from the field. Right now, what we really need is for Dirk Nowitzki to bring his A-game. And that means that we need him to channel David Hasselhoff not only at the foul line, but also when he’s shooting jump shots.

Jerry Stackhouse Hacks-a-ShaqI think he can do it, and I’m still holding out hope for a championship. What I don’t want is for our main memory of the 2005-2006 season to be Nowitzki’s fondness for this.

In any case, if the Mavs will just bring home a championship, I’ll even listen to some Hasselhoff.

USC Dynasty? Give me a break!

Can someone tell me how a USC win in the Rose Bowl would have been a three-pete? People seem to be forgetting who won the 2004 championship. Great game, Texas! Geaux Tigers!

One-pete

25 warning signs that you might be obsessing about Calvinism

Hat tip to Justin Taylor for bringing our attention to this must-read list: “25 warning signs that you might be obsessing about Calvinism.” This list is hilarious, and too painfully true.

I could add some of my own foibles to this list, but there is not enough blog space for that.
