Back in Orange

10 Days in Kalbarri
Awesome.
Fishing, swimming, building sand castles, reading books, the Australian Newspaper, watching cricket.
Spending quality time with my wife and family. eating fresh bread, taking our time to get wherever we were going.
I will post some pictures soon.

This is the book I read while I was away. Had it delivered for free.
Simple and clear book, practical, my sort of writer. Reccomend it if you are in the habit of trying to be someone you are not.

“Are you tired of pretending? Living walled up? Going only skin deep? Craig Groeschel , pastor of the thriving LifeChurch.tv, sure was. And in his refreshingly raw and real book, he comes clean. Not that he has anything other than typical, human stuff to confess. Check out a few of his musings: I have to work hard to stay sexually pure, I hate prayer meetings, sometimes I doubt God , and I can’t stand a lot of Christians . Through his incredible honesty, he opens the door for you to follow suit. Are you ready to dig deep and let God shine through the genuine you? No more living just to please others. No more hiding. You can be who God called you to be. You can live for an audience of One. “

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Steve Jacob’s too slow

The Techno world is waiting with baited breath for Apple to introduce a line of mobile phones.
Steve Jacobs is expecetd to make an announcement about the company’s move into mobiles at the annualo MacWorld Expo in San Fransisco on January 9th.
What would you expect Steve to name their new phone, mmmmmm,
I-Mac, I-Pod, I-Tunes etc etc.

Maybe they will call it an “I-Phone”.

Bad luck Steve, too late.
Linksys, a division of Cisco, released the “Iphone” on Monday.
There will be no issue with copyright as Linksys has previously released a phone under this name in 1997.

The Nativity Movie

Appearing at a cinema near you.
Initial reports state it is well made and historically accurate.
I have downloaded 8 scenes from the movie, which the distributor had made available to Pastors for use in churches. Just in time for Christmas Services!!

Interesting that the film, while heavily advertised, has not had much of an impact at the box office. The Passion may have paved the way for such films to be financially succesful, but the film itself must engage the market. No controversy, no ticket sales??

Phil Cooke has put his spin on it, and there is an interesting discussion going on. He seems to be pruporting that we should go and see it to support Christian filmakers. I dont agree with that. This is a secular market, and a film needs to do something special to earn my $8-$12. I dont agree Christians should support it just because its a Christian movie.

Iced Coffee

Isn’t it funny how someone can mention a particular drink, and all of a sudden, we just must have one?
Reading the latest issue of The Baptist Theological leaflet, a mate of mine from Mandurah Baptist, Hans Van Asselt, mentioned that he is now in training for a bike ride in Canada.
Apart from having to squeeze into lycra, he is going to have to give up one of his favourite pastimes, drinking Ice Coffee on the Mandurah foreshore.

Thanks for the tip Hans, off to get a cold Ice Coffee myself, may make my own actually!
