What will cause you to change?

"I am right. Therefore, you must change." This is a common sentiment among anyone who holds an opinion. Major convincing arguments are then given as to reasons why others must change to your point of view.

It is proud to assume that you have all of the right answers to everything. To make such a claim is to decree that you are like God: all-…

Three goals in Bible Reading

Recently, I evaluated why I take time out of my day to read the Bible. I have heard that the Bible has one singular meaning. If that is true, then reading the Bible through once is sufficient. However, those that promote singular meaning also advocate for daily Bible reading. This seems like a logical fallacy, which should be addressed; nevertheles…

Link sharing in the blog era

I just remembered how painful it was to share content through a blog to friends. Social media, such as Twitter, solved that issue. I do not want to attempt trying to remember my Digg.it password (Does the site even exist anymore?)

Anyway, I said all of that to say this: I know where both of these locations are:

Ironic

It is very ironic - to me at least - that when I visit drive.google.com on a Chromebook, I am presented with a notification to install Google drive.

This is a Chromebook.

Google apps are loaded by default.

This includes Google drive.

I just prefer the web experience over the native file explorer.

2023 - Return to the Syndicated Stone age (RSSa)

The new year has already been dubbed by some in the tech world as the year of RSS, meaning people will ditch social media for the consumption-style RSS feed. It is the same concept of switching from a smartphone to a mobile phone. You might be thinking, "Why would anyone go backwards in technology?" Everyone may have their own reasons for doing so,…

I think I will keep LastPass

LastPass was recently hacked and the hacker was able to steal keys from a developer which had access to the company's backup files. In the backup files, the hacker could use the decryption keys he stole from the developer to create something like:

Incarnation Haiku

God became a man. He experienced life. A life without sin.

He, unworthily, Received punishment for sin. God the Son had died.

Three days have now passed. And Jesus did not stay dead He came back to life.

It was His power. Without the help of others. Life came back to Him.

By resurrection, Jesus says, “Place trust in me.”…

Impossible to define

It is impossible to define a complex thought with one sentence. Even the previous sentence demands further information. What kind of thoughts do I mean? What is the reasoning for saying such a thing? Context adds further information to the reasoning behind such a statement. It also sets the stage for the real reason for the statement or provokes fu…
