01/23/2010 - Apologetics Vids

Cruising YouTube has become an occasional past time of mine. There really is a lot of information out there in a form of media which holds my attention so much better than a book. I always fall asleep so easily when reading.

I came across a new profile I had never seen before which is a decently large repository for Christian apologetics. Just yesterday I listened to Ravi Zacharias lecture on atheism which I enjoyed. He's a bit intellectual so I sometimes get lost in the large words (I'm a simple man) but still it was great. I can't vouch for the rest of the profile, but you can check it out here as long as you keep a clear mind so as to be aware of any false teachings which may have sneaked in.

As for the last week, it has been challenging. Christina is more often immobilized by Caleb's kicks making it impossible for her to stay standing for long periods of time. I feel so bad for her and am powerless to really do anything except continue to love and do what I can. By result, I've also been taking care of Leah more like I was when she had the cramping pain.

Leah is doing ok, but she's becoming more obstinate and determined in her will. Meal times can be so trying when she excitedly gets in her chair, only to refuse to even take that first bite of food. I believe I can honestly say that I can identify with being a single parent now and they have it so tough!

Last Sunday the Pratt family came to visit us from L'viv. They are currently serving in a church in L'viv, but are praying to begin a Calvary Chapel there when God permits. Mike taught last Sunday through some verses in Philippians and described what God has been doing in his life. He is a really good teacher and fun to listen to. After church we went out to eat.

On Tuesday, Christina and I used out "date coupon" which a friend, Ruth, gave us for Christmas so we went out to a local pizza place and indulged in some pizza and ice cream. I wish I could say the pizza was great, but it was only ok in my opinion. It was really fun to get out together without Leah - we've not been able to do that in awhile since Brian left for Kyiv.

Samuel (George and Sharon's son) had a birthday party on Wednesday and I provided the entertainment - balloon things! Everyone had a great time - kids and adults alike!

The rest of the week has been mostly just preparing for our trip and stuff like that - I even got our taxes done ;)
