the strebeck times: July 2010
http://strebecktimes.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 26, 2010. It's no secret that one of the hardest things about writing and preaching and teaching is the work of narrowing - bringing one. Thing into focus. Read one Faulkner sentence or listen to one of Bernard's homilies and witness this work at its best. Plowing through this week's passage or creating a new world via a short story, the author makes decisions about what stays and what goes. The sharpening process tends to be painful, for it usually means rejecting various good.

the strebeck times: Work and Play
http://strebecktimes.blogspot.com/2008/08/work-and-play.html
Sunday, August 31, 2008. Our time in New Mexico/Texas afforded us opportunities to see family on all sides as well as good friends we count on seeing bi-annually. Everyone was delighted to see Athan, some for the first time, and Morgan had so much fun I think she’s still unwinding. I guess that's all for now. I just spent a day with the guys at Abbey of Gethsemane, so I'll try to post about that sometime; a nice day of peace and prayer before the semester gets rolling. Sunday, August 31, 2008.

the strebeck times: Last of The Late Nights
http://strebecktimes.blogspot.com/2010/05/last-of-late-nights.html
Tuesday, May 11, 2010. Last of The Late Nights. So, the kids remain quiet in their room. Amberly made it safely to New Mexico. And now I must continue hashing out tomorrow's sermon. Of course, this won't be the last late night of sermon work. All you seasoned pastors out there can attest to that! However, it will most likely be the last time I stay up late for the sake of a seminary assignment. Of them though, have been significant experiences in this formational education journey.

the strebeck times: April 2007
http://strebecktimes.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 03, 2007. For the expectant and honest child, the blocks simply had to be hiding. She didn’t entertain the option that there were no more, or that she wasn’t looking in the right places…just figured they were “in hiding” (like the old Pearl Jam song I guess). Your face from me? A shot; and have we ever really stopped? Tuesday, April 03, 2007. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Simple template. Template images by gaffera.

the strebeck times: May 2011
http://strebecktimes.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 03, 2011. Attempt at a Sober Response to the Death of bin Laden. By Pieter Bruegel the Elder, 1563. On the second Sunday of Easter, we learned Osama bin Laden had been killed by United States Special Forces in Pakistan. Hearing the news, I was at first dismissive - an attitude lacking sobriety and not hard to find in the various print, social media, and comedic responses to this event. And this is the hope of the world. Tuesday, May 03, 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
