What? Do I have a picture of my sons? Just happen to have a couple!

Yesterday marked 2 weeks for Andrew. I thought I'd stick a couple of pix here since I've not done that lately. Actually, these pix are from April 2 (I've not gotten a chance to download our latest from the camera). I've got some pretty good Easter shots I'll put on later. This first shot is Drew's first stroll. Karen and I took him down the street to pick up Jacob from the bus stop. It was a slooooow walk with Karen's recent surgery. Fortunately it was a nice, warm day.

When Jacob saw that Drew was there, he started sprinting up the hill. Right at the top, he was just about ready to run out of gas, but he was sure excited to see his little brother.

The last couple of shots are of my little Yankee. As it turns out, since he was born in Massachusetts, I guess he really is!





By the way, my little slugger hit a double here and went on to score.
Nah, I'm not proud or anything. ;-)

Johnny Hart, Creator of Comic Strip "B.C.", Dead at 76

The Los Angeles Times reports that Johnny Hart, creator of the popular Stone Age comic strip "B.C.," which generated controversy in recent years with themes that at times reflected Hart's evangelical Christian beliefs, died Saturday of a stroke. He was 76. "B.C." has been syndicated since 1958. Following a conversion in the 1980s, Hart began imparting Christian messages in his strip, especially at Christmas and Easter, causing some non-Christians readers to complain.

Does the Church Need Persecution? At Least One Pastor Says Yes.

The best thing that could happen to Christians in New Zealand – and the Western world in general - is a good dose of persecution, says a pastor who was at the heart of a significant revival among the Gypsies of Britain in the early 1990s, ASSIST News Service reports. Roy Warren, a consultant for the Baptist Union of New Zealand, says too many Christians put church in a neat box. “If revival came, it would be an inconvenience to them, they would not be happy with it,” he says. “For me, revival is where God moves in such a way that he changes communities. It’s not a case of more people going to a church – that’s renewal. Revival is changing cultures and whole communities.”

Can 'Religion' Curb the Spread of HIV?

This story came from the Religion Today Summaries at Crosswalk.com. As I read it, I had some immediate thoughts on the subject, some perhaps even contradictory in nature. While I was preparing to comment on it, I began to wonder what you would say about it and whether it strikes you as it did me. If you've got a second, read this little paragraph and let me know your thoughts. I'll let you know mine later.
A UPI story says: "A U.S. study says people with HIV who have strong religious ties are less likely to spread the virus that causes AIDS. The RAND Corp. study says HIV-positive people who say religion is an important part of their lives are likely to have fewer sexual partners and engage in less high-risk sexual behavior. 'Moral beliefs may indicate an underlying altruism and a desire to make sure no one else is infected with HIV,' behavioral scientist David Kanouse said in a release. 'Promoting these feelings could then be used as a component of HIV prevention programs.'" Lead author Frank H. Galvan said, "Religiosity is an untapped resource in the whole struggle against HIV and AIDS, and should be looked at more thoroughly."
