Becky and the Beach Ball

Howdy folks! Here's Becky with our little guy, she says it's no longer a bowling ball or a basketball, but a beach ball that she's carrying around! He's due January 18th, and we're very excited for his arrival! Posted by Picasa

Defending our Faith!

I’ve been doing some research on Jehovah’s Witnesses for my theology class, and some of you might find this interesting. It is one of the fastest growing cults in the world, so I believe we should know a bit about it and how to defend our position when talking to one of them. In fact, I am interviewing a J.W. this coming Monday on the deity of Christ (they don’t believe he was actually God), and I’ll be producing two brochures soon, one for Christians to know how to defend our position when they come knocking on our doors, and one brochure for you to hand to a J.W., challenging him/her to think for themselves and read the Bible. If you’re interested, let me know. Also, here’s a great website for apologetics (defending our faith) http://www.carm.org, it also includes plenty of information about all the other major cults today and their fallacies.
Know the Word and study it!
Ben.

Thanksgiving is upon us!

Hello all! Thanksgiving Break is here this week! A friend of mine is going to help me (actually, he’ll be teaching me) redo our front porch—the roof is rotting through, and we’re also going to screen it in.
Our baby boy is still growing strong, Becky’s carrying a bowling ball, well, actually, a basketball, around. She’s anxious to have this baby soon…I mean, wouldn’t you be uncomfortable carrying a basketball around and your belly for this long too? I know that some people are actually used to that though… (
Classes are going well for me, Ben, I’m really enjoying them and feeling refreshed by what I’m learning. Our God is an amazing God, I will tell you that. This year I am thankful that His Word is like a hidden treasure, always finding new things we can cherish and learn from.
Keep in touch people! Email us sometime, a link is on the right side of this screen. Much love,
Ben & Becky.
