Posed by my Son

If there were no Threat of Hell,
If there were no Hope of Heaven,
If at the end of life there was nothing,
Would you still worship God?

Give it some thought. I too quickly went to dismiss it as an insane mental exercise. Trapped in the car with him on our drive home from Grove City he brought it up again and this time I was forced to give thought to what he was really implying by this question. I have to admit that my first thoughts, given further consideration, were and still are quite disturbing.

Catching Up

Just dropping a line to say I’m alive, but real life has been a bit hectic of late. We recently rolled out some internal applications and they bit us in the hiney. We’ve been running around for the last week debugging, fixing data and generally pulling out our hair.

This past weekend my son and I went on a road trip to visit Grove City College in Grove City, PA. I was more than pleasantly surprised by everything that I heard and saw. It’s a very quaint (read small and old) Christian college north of Pittsburgh. The school is academically and spiritually challenging, something that my son and I were both impressed by. The school takes the spiritual development of its students very seriously and there is a great deal of interaction between the students and the professors. All in all we were both blown away with everything that we saw, plus he already knows a couple of young people from our church who are currently attending. Now we just have to wait to this Fall and see if he can get in.
