Back in 1980-something, I “walked the aisle” at a Billy Graham concert.\u00c2\u00a0 It started my Christian walk.\u00c2\u00a0 Through the years, I, like many, struggle with day-to-day issues, yet, I’ve held to my faith, for the most part, in my life.\u00c2\u00a0 Oh, and I use commas.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 A lot.<\/p>\n
Now, I’m 35, have 3 kids, and have been married for 14 years.\u00c2\u00a0 I have a seemingly good life, a wonderful wife, good kids, even a good dog.\u00c2\u00a0 Yet it’s all a front.\u00c2\u00a0 I struggle daily with being in the world and not of the world.\u00c2\u00a0 I’ve wandered and wander spiritually and despite my fleshly intentions, I lead a blessed life.\u00c2\u00a0 Mostly due to the prayer of my wife and close friends, I think.\u00c2\u00a0 Now, I have finally happened upon a tool that finally makes a load of sense:\u00c2\u00a0 walkintheword.com<\/a>.\u00c2\u00a0 Scott Burk (of Scott’s Coffee House) got me on these, and I’m using my BBerry for something useful … podcasts.\u00c2\u00a0 Sheli and I listnen to them in the car – BBerry on the dash, blaring the words on Dr. James MacDonald… and finally – I heard something that made sense to me last night.\u00c2\u00a0 On the last part of “I Choose the Bible as God’s Word – C”, James laid out a plan for moving personal Bible study from an obligation to a passion – sending 30 minutes a day in the word – not just reading – but taking notes, making conclusions, letting the Spirit reveal things.<\/p>\n So, here starts the first 30 days – Discipline.\u00c2\u00a0 After that, the next 30 days – Desire.\u00c2\u00a0 Then finally, we get to Delight.\u00c2\u00a0 How awesome would it be to really delight in God’s Word?\u00c2\u00a0 What would change in my life?\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 What would change around me?\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 I intend to find out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Back in 1980-something, I “walked the aisle” at a Billy Graham concert.\u00c2\u00a0 It started my Christian walk.\u00c2\u00a0 Through the years, I, like many, struggle with day-to-day issues, yet, I’ve held to my faith, for the most part, in my life.\u00c2\u00a0 Oh, and I use commas.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 A lot.
