Tom's Blog: I'm Back
http://ponchak.blogspot.com/2007/07/im-back.html
Monday, July 30, 2007. My lovely wife sent me away to the Benedictine monastery of St. Leo Abbey. For a weekend retreat for my birthday. It was good to get away and have some alone time with my God. At the same time nothing can make you more spiritually squirmy than an extended period of silence and solitude. I enjoyed hanging out with the monks for prayers and meals, but the rest of the time it was just me, my thoughts and the Ancient of Days. I got some good reading done. A Short History of the Mass.

Wednesday, January 31, 2007. Conscience is the most secret core and sanctuary of a person. There we are alone with God, whose voice echoes in our depths.". A man of conscience is one who never acquires tolerance, well-being, success, public standing, and approval on the part of prevailing opinion at the expense of the truth.". Aka Pope Benedict XVI). Following my conscience led me abandoning my goal of becoming a full time pastor for sitting in a cubicle in a job 50 miles from my homw so I can lead a sma...

Tom's Blog: One of us got a better deal than the other
http://ponchak.blogspot.com/2007/06/one-of-us-got-better-deal-than-other.html
Monday, June 11, 2007. One of us got a better deal than the other. I lucked out, but poor Lisa is stuck with Rummy! No Winona Ryder for Lisa? This is bogus, as is evidenced by Clare's matches. I did this a long time ago - can't remember who they said I looked like, but it was pretty weird. I am laughing my butt off. Mainly at Clare's celebrity look alike. I hope you guys are enjoying your summer.see you in july! One of us got a better deal than the other. My photos on flickr.com. Make your own badge here.

Tom's Blog: Reflecting
http://ponchak.blogspot.com/2007/03/reflecting.html
Saturday, March 24, 2007. Before I get to my thoughts about Thinspace. Last weekend I just have to share a quick story. Lisa, the girls and I went to a Lenten Fish Fry sponsored by the Church of the Resurrection. Living out a similar calling reminded us of what we once held so dear. Being able to taste and see what God is doing there jogged our memories. The guys at VC recorded all of the sessions and made them available as podcasts. My personal favorite for the weekend was Todd Hunter.
