    Monday Morning MP3 (afternoon edition with Mayor Bloomberg)

    Monday, December 31st, 2007

    This last MMMP3 of 2007 isn’t a true podcast, nor is it even an mp3. But it is video from this morning’s sixth annual Interfaith Breakfast hosted by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg at the New York Public Library. While my dad’s been a regular invitee, today was my first. In a remarkably symbolic [...]

    They fought the good fight

    Saturday, December 29th, 2007

    But the Giants were outclassed by arguably the greatest team in NFL history. Still, for one night at least, Eli Manning played up to the hype of the #1 draft pick, and the team played with heart. Props to Tom Brady (50 TD passes), Randy Moss (23 TD receptions), and, yes, even Spy Gate Bill [...]

    My Christmas gift in action

    Thursday, December 27th, 2007

    It’s no secret that I’m an avid photography hobbiest, and as such I have decent gear. But I’ve never had any high-speed lenses, the kind where you can capture vivid images in low light without resorting to unnatural flash. Peter Ong turned me on to a steal a couple weeks ago, and my beloved bride [...]

    An Epitaph worth emulating

    Thursday, December 27th, 2007

    “… In an age and country fertile in great and good men, he was among the foremost of those who fixed the character of their times; because to high and various talents, to warm benevolence, and to universal candour, he added the abiding eloquence of a Christian life. …” – William Wilberforce epitaph at Westminster [...]

    Geoffrey Canada on Rap Music

    Thursday, December 27th, 2007

    Named one of “America’s Best Leaders” by US News and World Report (2005), Harlem Children’s Zone founder and CEO Geoffrey Canada said this on a 60 Minutes story about the “Stop Snitchin” culture of hip hop: “There comes a point in time when you just have to say, ‘Enough’s enough.’ …. They are preaching anarchy. [...]

    Christmas with the Del Rios

    Thursday, December 27th, 2007

    With everyone’s favorite big cousins Willie and Amber arriving tonight, holiday festivities promise to continue at least through New Year’s, but here’s the photographic 411 from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Highlighting Christmas morning was Judah’s first real prank. Ever since his kindergarten teacher blew the Santa myth, no amount of The Polar Express could [...]

    Monday Morning MP3 (belated Christmas Eve edition)

    Monday, December 24th, 2007

    Incarnationally Present Pastor Paul Curtis, Crossroads Christian Church Pastor Paul began a teaching series on the incarnation in honor of Christmas two weeks ago, a favorite theme of this blog. (Ssee for example, “Reimagining Christmas.”) Tonight, in lieu of a traditional Christmas Eve service, Crossroad sponsored a “Christmas Eve Encounter” in their storefront community arts [...]
