I think that my blog is going to set a new record today. The record will be a new monthly high number of visits to this blog. The previous high was in October of 2008, when I had 1291 visits in one month. I think that I have already surpassed that for this month, but I want to really beat the record!
So, if you are reading this through a feed reader, stop on by!
Please say "hi" while you are here (via the comments).

Comment Moderation
Well, I just had to turn on the comment moderation. I don't like to do that because I like the comments to show up right away. Especially if I am not going to be by a computer for awhile.
But yesterday I had several spam comments. Those are comments from people who really have no interest in your blog, but want to put up a link to their website so that they can get more publicity. So, when someone says "Hey love your blog." and then adds a link to Jordan Shoes... Yeah.
So I am now going to start moderating the comments.

Everything Skit
I just posted that last video that my wife showed me, and it got me to thinking about other videos that have been beneficial to me. This one I saw at church a few years ago. I have to be honest, I still cry every time I watch it.

Peter and the Star Catchers (review)
I love reading to my two boys. I read to them nearly every night, when I have the chance. I try to go the whole nine yards too, including different voices for each character. Peter and the Starcatchers
has been a great book to read to them.
It is the story behind the story of Peter Pan. I know, I know, Peter Pan... But I am telling you it is a really good book! It is written by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, and they do an amazing job of breathing new life into these well known characters and letting us get to know a little more about them. I mean, who hasn't wondered about Captain Hook's history?
It was fun going through the book as you see these different characters being revealed and the aspects of the traditional story begin falling into place. I don't want to go into detail because I don't want to ruin the story for you.
If you enjoy reading to your kids, then I want to recommend this book. My boys loved it and immediately upon its completion made me go to the Library to get book 2.
If you have any questions about this book, please feel free to e-mail me, I might be able to give you a little more detail.

we are surrounded by fruit
We are surrounded by fruit! Evaluate it before you eat it!
Yesterday I preached through the next part of the Sermon on the Mount. In this section, Jesus warns His disciples of the reality of false prophets. This warning is important because (1) as humans, we have the potential of being deceived and (2) there exists a being who is known as the deceiver.
He is the great deceiver and we can be deceived. He is the father of lies and we can be lied to. He is a trickster and we can be tricked. This is not a good combination, therefore a warning.
