2024 Christmas Eve
Another beautiful Christmas Eve service at the Dixie Center with our stellar band and energetic childrens' choir. I had some issues with a speaker during my prelude, but overall it was a beautiful evening. Thanks be to God for His indescrible gift.

Christmas Music
It's September! Time to think about Christmas music, right?? I have a sound system set up where I can load 7 of my favorite Christmas CDs during the holidays. This year I've bought a Joseph Fuller CD, Christmas in the City. And this one will now be on my Fav Seven.

Left or Right?
“The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.”
Ecclesiastes 10:2 is a metaphorical representation of wisdom and foolishness. It suggests that those who possess wisdom make choices that are right and aligned with God’s principles, while the foolish tend to make unwise decisions.
The verse begins with a vivid image: “A wise man’s heart inclines him to the right, but a fool’s heart to the left.” In biblical symbolism, “right” often represents righteousness, wisdom, and God’s path, while “left” is associated with foolishness, rebellion, and straying from God’s way. So, here, we see a clear dichotomy between wisdom and foolishness.

Do you Uber?
The idea for Uber was born in Paris on a snowy evening in 2008, when cofounders Travis Kalanick and Garrett Camp struggled to find a taxi. Uber officially launched in 2010 as a luxury car service in San Francisco. Today, Uber is valued at over $70 billion. (Kim Komando fact.)
