Thomas Bickle Blog-a-thon!

Being a new dad, nothing gets me more than seeing a child who is sick or hurt.

Nothing.

Thomas is the son of some friends of people in our community... His mom has been active in our community's forum, even though they live several states away.

Recently, they found out Thomas, a brand new little guy, had a brain tumor.

The good news is- they operated and seem to have gotten it all.

The bad news is that the expenses insurance won't cover are a huge burden on a young family...
And dad has had to quit his job to help take care of the family...

Not good.

So here's my question.

Got $5?

Or $10?

If all the people who read this, take 5 minutes and drop them $5 on paypal, well...

C'mon folks.

You can do it!

Death Penalty for being a Christian While working out at the gym yesterday, a news story on the overhead TVs caught my eye... I couldn't believe that I was seeing this on TV but had as of yet heard no outcry from anyone. So, let's start the outcrying... Afghan Faces Death Penalty for Converting to Christianity Judge Says He Could Escape Punishment If He's Ruled Insane Despite the overthrow of the fundamentalist Taliban government and the presence of 22,500 U.S. troops in Afghanistan, a man who converted to Christianity is being prosecuted in Kabul, and a judge said Sunday that if convicted, he faces the death penalty. Abdul Rahman, who is in his 40s, says he converted to Christianity 16 years ago while working as an aid worker helping Afghan refugees in Pakistan. Relatives denounced him as a convert during a custody battle over his children, and he was arrested last month. The prosecutor says Rahman was found with a Bible.

10 Keys to Sane Church Planting I recently saw a list of 10 Keys to Effective Church Planting. I want to whole-heartedly agree with some and humbly take issue with others (and one in particular)... I don't pretend to know it all- but here are my thoughts as I read through the list. Let's call my reworked thoughts 10 Keys to Sane Church Planting... The list is: 1. Get on your knees and fight like a man. 2. Team-work makes the dream work. 3. Location, location, location 4. Determine your target audience. 5. It takes big money to plant a church. 6. If you build it they still might not come. 7. Clarify the “win”. 8. Set yourself up for success. 9. Focus on life-giving ministry 10. You get what you expect. You can see a much more detailed description of these points here So... in order. 1. Get on your knees and fight like a man. Aside from the inherent sexism in the way the statement is made, this is a great, great place to start. "Unless the Lord build a house..." :) 2. Team-work makes the dream work. Yes. It's important to not do this thing alone. 3. Location, location, location Yeah... Okay. I...
