I Am So Very Thankful For My Wife
What you need to understand is that @KristinHasty, my wife, had a crappy night.
She had plans to go to Ohio to visit with her family and grandmother as they celebrated grandma’s 80th birthday.
At the last minute Kristin’s flight was cancelled. I had already dropped her off at the airport and was at home beginning a wild rumpus of sorts with some dear guy friends of mine. A nerdy...

As with the last post, I’m again posting a reading of a poem. I hope you’ll enjoy it. It’s part self-criticism, part making crappy ideas work for me. It’s a reflection of frustration with being unable to come up with unoriginal thoughts and then kind of saying, well, if that’s all I’ve got to work with, let’s do this anyway.

Talking To Your Kids About Sexuality by Mark... →
Great stuff here. Very practical.
califortiaa asked: Hi (; I looked up John Piper in the search bar here on Tumblr & your blog showed up. It definitely caught my attention that you're glorifying Him in your posts. We need a lot of men like you out here where I live.

I’m trying to stop treating my poetry with such a heavy bias on the written part and place more emphasis on the sound when read or spoken aloud. I’ve been writing poetry for years, but intermittently. But I’m trying to take it a little more seriously and trying to own my own style.
Here’s a poem I wrote yesterday (first draft on pen and paper even, which was refreshing for...

Desiring God by John Piper (Revised Edition) -...
Desiring God by John Piper is a book that I’ve heard about from many of my friends for a long time and I was excited to dive into it’s pages. The new revised and expanded edition ads some things the former editions have not. An updated preface, a chapter by chapter study guide, an addition chapter on suffering and deeper appendices which dive into why Piper uses the language...

I Could Totally Be A Librarian For The Rest Of My...
Some days I think I would be a really good librarian.
Not many things make me as content as a good book that teaches me more about God, quality time with my wife, a piping hot cup of french pressed coffee, my cats, and a lot of time to soak it all in.
I categorize my books, blurays, and music alphabetically all the time. It bother’s me when things are out of place.
