  • Prayer Mondays: Wesley’s Covenant

    Barring my faulty memory (and if I’m not lazy) I want to post prayers on Monday from all over Church History and then throughout the modern day, and then my own. This one was adapted by John Wesley and is in the Book of Offices of the British Methodist Church. It’s a prayer that actually…

  • Fontisizing Impact

    Like an old yenta, a designer is often found matchmaking design projects and fonts.  With so many designs, the designer ensures they have access to as many possible matches as possible. But that doesn’t always work out. After all, the designer, like the yenta, has a certain vision of the ideal font matches. They don’t…

  • Philosophy Fridays: Universal Family Tree

    On Fridays, I enjoy wading into the deep end of the pool to try treading the deep waters of philosophy. I’m a woefully amateur swimmer and I have no doubt that an occasional philosophical lifeguard will dive into my then muddied waters to pull me back into the tepid kiddie section, but for now I…

    Barring my faulty memory (and if I’m not lazy) I want to post prayers on Monday from all over Church History and then throughout the modern day, and then my own. This one comes from Fr. Terry Gensemer found here at the Circle of Prayer site. O God of Beginnings, You are the Creator of…

  • Major Themes of Scripture

    On my iPhone (it’s really an iPod Touch but it’s annoying calling it an iPod Touch and it sounds slightly perverse calling it an iTouch and with the right applications and microphone it is essentially the same device sans camera so I’ll continue calling it an iPhone for any future posts though I don’t technically…

  • Refresh

    No, I haven’t quit blogging. Yes, I still have the Christian Carnival database. Yes, it still has been going on. Yes, more articles are coming. I’m just in the process of doing some backend stuff that necessitates me not updating the mysql database. That’s just geek talk for: Stay Tuned for your Regularly Scheduled Programming.…
