Looking back on 2008 Resos I made some public resolutions in 2008. It was a good (and naked) thing to state them all out-loud. I think I will do the same, this year. But, before I do, I better take a second look at some outcomes of all the resolving. 1. Run in a race that I have no business […] 4 responses January 1, 2009
Inbox Zero [applause applause] What a mental relief, honey. This scene took serious intentionality and an entirely new system, but in a matter of 2 weeks I went from 3000+ emails to zero. Zero! This video by Merlin Mann really helped me. It is 50 minutes long, but enormously useful if, like me, you need some serious counseling/therapy concerning […] 3 responses December 30, 2008

We Interrupt this Hiatus I have been on a hiatus, of sorts. And I return, slowly. In the last couple of days I began running again. It hurts to begin again. My legs need massages. The hurt is good.

Isaiah, Re-envisioned Finals are over, freedom is here. It all feels good. One very nice D. Good took the train to spend the weekend with me, and we rode bikes around the city. It was terribly fun. While she was here I worked on a weighty final project for my course on Isaiah. I re-read the whole […] 4 responses December 14, 2008

Advent: Leave us better than you found us. My friends Jesse and Trevor learned from their grandparents that if you borrow something from someone, you should surprise the giver by returning it just a little nicer than it was received. So, when they were displaced in Pasadena by the fires in Santa Barbara, they tried washing Grandma and Grandpa Repko’s Volvo before returning […] One response December 8, 2008
Questions I want to ask Karin + Linford from Over the Rhine In just a few hours, Fuller students are getting treated to a rare hour with Karin and Linford from Over the Rhine. After twenty (20!?!) years of making music together, walking with God, and one beautiful marriage these two will answer our questions about life/art/miscellany. If you have any questions you’d like me to try […] One response December 7, 2008
Mobile Photos from OTR From last night at the Troubadour: Karin Berquist brings out the electric on an Over the Rhine oldie “The World Can Wait,” then some kitchen cookie-sheet percussion on “Don’t Wait for Tom.” So wonderful. No responses December 7, 2008
