Had a bad day?
This too will pass. Thanks to Michael for sharing this.
The origins of the Shia-Sunni split
NPR has a very interesting piece on the Shia-Sunni split.
The division in Islam between the Shia minority and the Sunni majority seems to be deepening, not just in Iran and Iraq, but across the Middle East. The split occurred soon after the death of the Prophet Muhammad, nearly 1,400 years ago.
Catch up on your Ismlamic history and find out why Shiites are looking for a coming messiah.
It’s been a day
Well what a day it’s been. My goodness. I don’t think I sat down at my desk for more than 30 minutes today.
Three long meetings with a lunch meeting thrown in for good measure.
I think the lunch meeting was the only one where I felt like I actually accomplished something.
“Sounds like someone has a case of the Mondays.”
Re: Prayer request
Re: The prayer request from earlier: Jerry went home to be with his Lord and Savior this morning at 6:30 a.m. before he was taken off the ventilator. Please hold his family and friends up in prayer today as they begin making arrangements.
re: Christ is the head
I have the pics from yesterday’s service online. Check them out by clicking the photo.
Engagement pics
Laurie and I went to Las Colinas yesterday with Laurie’s best friend and future maid of honor, Jen Cedarburg to take our engagement pics. We had a lot of goofy ones, a lot with our eyes closed and probably a lot where it looks like we don’t really know what we were doing (which probably isn’t far off base) but we had fun and I think we got a number of good ones. Take a look see and let us know what you think/like.
