The next time i would meet someone from the internet would be in April of 2005. Jim and Mary,a couple from England, couldn't get a vacation time that would coordinate with the barbeque but wanted to meet both Bob and I. So they first flew into Los Angeles and spent a few days with Bob while they toured and saw the sights of Southern California. Then they hopped on a Greyhound bus and rode up to visit with me for a few days. On the afternoon of Wednesday Apri1 27th,i picked them...

SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE, in the middle of everything
else we've been doing around the house, 1 ended up with
these four words rattling around in my head: reduce, reuse,
recycle, refuse. Over and over. It was maddening. Worse than
that song 1 promised to not sing for you. Still, when you think
about it, those four words do accurately describe the whole philosophy
of living small. It is all about reducing your use, reusing
what you can, recycling as much as possible, and even refusing
to...

THE BLACK CATHOLlC BISHOPS I of the United States issued their fìrst and, to
date, only pastoralletter, What We Have Seen and l-leard,2 in 1984. They did
so in recognition of their belief that "the Black Catholic community in the
American Church has now come of age." This coming of age, they noted,
brings with it the duty, the privilege, and the joy to share with others the
rich experience of the "Word of Life. " stylishplus, Today, we are witnesses to further signs of that coming...

Luke and 1 are friends with a couple from church named Clay and
Tammy, who have become very dear to us. We sometimes eat Sunday
lunch together at a local buffet. 卫1Îs restaurant has a carved-meat
counter where the same man has worked as long as we can remember.
He greets every single woman with, "Hello there, pretty thang!
How are you doing today, foxy mama?" and if he weren't so portly
and innocent (and if he didn't cook such a great steak), 1 might be
offended. As it is, we laugh...

First Peter 3:6 says, "Just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him
lord, ... you have become her children if you do what is right without
being frightened by any fear" (NASB).
This verse is found in a passage describing how a woman's
beauty is to be found internally instead of externally (verses 1-5).
Among other things, Peter describes how a woman should be in
willing subjection to her husband, even if he is not a believer. Dread
shouldn't motivate her in yielding to him,...

Dear reader, you hold in your hand the product of the hardest thing
I've ever done short ofbirthing children. This book was written
poolside,playground-side, and in various rooms in my home to a steady
soundtrack of SpongeBob SquarePants and Hannah Montana. There
were many days I didn't think I could finish, but I've learned afresh
that God is not keen on abandoning a good work He's begun.
In giving thanks, I have to bow first to my Savior and King, Jesus
Christ....

I once had a young lady ask me, "why is it that the guys I like don't like
me, and the guys who like me, I don't like". Some cultures still match up
couples through matchmakers or by arranged marriages between families.
I remember thinking in college that I was not having much luck on my
own and n1aybe these cultures had it right. Today we are going to address
the art of flirting, letting the guy you like know in an "appropriate way"
that you are interested. What do we do? What do...

IT HAPPENED in Milan at a 2008 Prada fashion show. 111 was having
a panic attack, my hands were shaking, " a runway model recalls.
Some of the girls were crying backstage, they were so scared." Why
the dramatics-An act of terrorism? An explosion? Had the prime
minister been assassinated? No. These women were fearful of walking
down the runway in the season's extremely high heels. Two models
tripped and fell; they were helped to their feet by members of the
audience. One was so badly...
