There is a small town in Canada called Inuvik. It faces long periods in the winter where it never sees sunlight due to being so far north. And I thought Wisconsin winters were long and dark. As a marketing stunt, Tropicana paid to have a 10,000 lumen light hoisted over the town using helium balloons for a period of time. It brought them artificial sunlight. Here is the ad …
Of course, as a preacher I cannot resist the connection to bringing a dark world the light of Christ who is the Son of God. Fortunately for us, it doesn’t take this much effort. Just sharing your story about how God changed your life is enough.
Brit Hume used to be the anchor of the Fox News Channel’s nightly news broadcast. He still takes part in the network as an analyst and probably other things. He was on one of their programs Sunday and said Tiger Wood should become a Christian to restore himself and his life. In the face of some conflict, you might have expected him to back down and retract his words. Instead he offered these words of wisdom on Bill O’Reilly’s program.
Here is the stream of last Sunday’s worship service. The sermon was part of the series on David Jeremiah’s bookThe 12 Ways of Christmas. This week’s ways were Charity and Giving.

I am reviewing QuickVerse 2010 for an upcoming issue of Christian Computing Magazine. Here is a screen cast I have created for the review. Look for the review in December 2009.
Please notice that I had not entered my Twitter account info, so in the demo video when I tried to post to Twitter it failed. My fault, not QuckVerse’s. It will post to Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Digg and Delicious. Pretty good program, but is bit limited compared to others.
This is a kind of funny, even if disingenuous ad against Windows 7.
I’ve been using Windows 7 since January when it was in beta. It is really pretty good and far better than anything MS has done to date. I find Apple to be a little snotty and this ad shows that they really have little to say about their own work. Like politics, I’m always more impressed with a candidate who has a lot to say about what he or she will do to improve rather than how better they are than the other guy.
