harbarger theories: July 2010
http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 1, 2010. Harbarger theory: REAL men are tough, tender and true! Much has been said and written about what it means to be a real man. Some have suggested that REAL men are the sensitive, cry-at-anything kind of a guy. Others suggest that a REAL man is like cheap toilet paper. You know, he's rough, he's tough and doesn't take crap off anybody! Still others suggest that a REAL man is the kind of guy you can depend upon for anything. A real man is TOUGH. A real man is TENDER. A real man is TRUE.

harbarger theories: May 2011
http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 13, 2011. Harbarger theory: bob dylan was partially right. some people NEED to get stoned! You probably saw the billboards, heard it on the news and, if you are like me, you just shook your head at all the fuss. If you experience May 22, then you (and I) were either left behind, or … he was wrong. We’ll be able to stand before the Mercy Seat with confidence of the children of God and hear, “Well done, my good and faithful servants! Well, not really . but, some days .

harbarger theories: December 2012
http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 5, 2012. Harbarger theory: sometimes there gets to be so many plates spinning that some start to fall. I like to be competent. I like to make people happy. I like to say "Yes." I like to be busy and successful. I like changing the world for people. I like that stuff. I really do. What is even worse, is that I counsel people who do the same thing and I can help them move on. But I don't let myself move on. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). One of the games I used to play with my Youth Groups...

harbarger theories: February 2011
http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 25, 2011. Harbarger theory: stuttering stinks, I don't care if you are a king. What do Porky Pig, Max Headroom, Michael Palin, Mel Tillis, King George VI and Joel Harbarger have in common? We all have ears. Oh yeah! And we all stutter. I'm a stutterer. Like all these famous folks, I'm a stutterer. I can't remember NOT being a stutterer. So is my oldest brother. Maybe I should blame it all on him! We experience all of it. It's not fun. I thought the movie was excellent and I hope it wins ...

http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2014/09/harbarger-theory-persistence-is-good.html
Thursday, September 25, 2014. Harbarger theory: Persistence is a good thing. A while back, our son Nate and I started reading the Spenser series of books by Robert B Parker. Spenser (no first name ever divulged! I'm not sure when and if Nate quit reading the series, but I read the whole cycle from first book to last book (38 in all, plus a Christmas book published posthumously). I persisted! However, as I have pondered finishing this long cycle of books, I have realized a few things. After all, I have pr...

harbarger theories: October 2014
http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. Harbarger theory: never, ever waste a vote. It wasn't until 1920 (that's right 19. That women had the right to vote in the United States of America. That was nearly 150 years after the signing of the Declaration Of Independence! These days, it's hard to believe that it took that long to grant a basic civil right to a predominant class of the citizenry. But, it is a hard and sad, sad truth. And the city in Florida is pronounced AWE-gus-teen. Who suggested in City of God. If I am ...

harbarger theories: January 2011
http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 18, 2011. Some autobios are just weird. Harbarger theory: sometimes allegories need more context. This is the first of my musings on the writings of CS Lewis that I will be sharing over the next year as I attempt to read all of the Christian writings of CS Lewis in the order in which he wrote them. Although some parts drag (probably because I don't possess enough insight into Lewis' life and thought to catch the inside references), it's an interesting book that makes me wonder how I woul...

http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2014/07/harbarger-theory-we-all-need-anamchara.html
Thursday, July 17, 2014. We all need an anamchara. I read a book a while back and it really touched a nerve within me. It was The Celtic Way Of Evangelism. By Dr George (Chuck) Hunter. I have always been fascinated with Celtic art and music and now that I know more of the early missionaries to the Celts, I am even more fascinated! One of the concepts that Dr Hunter lifted up was that of an ANAMCHARA. They put up with our quirks (they may even like them! We all need an Anamchara. We need someone who w...

http://joelharbarger.blogspot.com/2014/08/harbarger-theory-love-can-change-us.html
Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Love can change us. Wendy and I went to see Maleficent. In the theater, believing that it's the kind of movie that is best seen on the BIG screen, not just the big screen that we have in our home. We were right. Of course, after being spoiled by movie prices in the Athens, Ohio area ($4 for all movies . and FIRST RUN movies too! At Movies 10 near Nelsonville! We had some sticker shock at the theater prices. WOW! But, that's another blog at another time . or not. But, this was ...
