Growing Young: September 2010
http://jcnewton.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 22, 2010. Ecologically speaking, a season is a period of the year in which only certain types of floral and animal events happen (e.g.: flowers bloom—spring; hedgehogs hibernate—winter). So, if we can observe a change in daily floral/animal events, the season is changing.". Ancient cultures sometimes used an average-sunlight formula to reckon their seasons. The day with the most sunlight was the midpoint of summer, for example, and the day with the least sunlight was midwinter. By th...

Growing Young: January 2010

Saturday, January 30, 2010. God in the Darkness. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me.". I have recited this fourth verse of Psalm 23 so many times over the years, and yet I have not to my memory, until tonight, discovered a very important truth revealed its first words, "even though." Even though? You mean it's a given that I'll walk through the dark valley? Or is this an "if" and not a "when"? I will fear no evil." Why not? Charles Swind...

Saturday, February 27, 2010. A Picture Perfect Day. What a great day this was! Oh, this photo is not one of mine but it reminded me of a picture perfect day. I found it online. I hope you had the chance to enjoy this day! Penned by J.C. Newton. Observations About Being Content. Some people, like myself, seem to fight against contentment on a daily basis, choosing to be restless about where we are instead of choosing to stay put and let whatever happens happen. So it it wrong to want more for yourself, yo...

Tuesday, June 29, 2010. New Mexico: A Photographic Journey. I just uploaded some photos to my Flickr account and made a slideshow. (I'm waiting at home for my new water heater to be installed). The photos are small for now but I'll get bigger versions uploaded sometime in the future. For now, a few of the still pics. Penned by J.C. Newton. Sunday, June 27, 2010. An Evening With Bob Bennett. But he humored us. And I was greatly appreciative. Penned by J.C. Newton. Saturday, June 26, 2010. Catchy title, me...

Growing Young: March 2010

Tuesday, March 30, 2010. The Face of Christ? Could it be that the face of the crucified Christ has finally been revealed to the world? If you were watching the History Channel tonight, you might think so. I certainly wonder if it has. And I'm stunned. But it is also haunting, mysterious, and intriguing. Who was this man? How did he die? Was it the face of Christ? What strikes me about every Shroud of Turin special I've watched is how even scientists have left open the possibility of the resurrection of t...

Tuesday, August 24, 2010. Fall is in the Air. Okay, maybe it's not fall but it sure feels nice here in North Texas! A cool/mild/bland front blew through the summer high that has camped over my neighborhood for seven weeks and it, honestly, feels cool outside. Cool still being 87 degrees, of course! Wait a minute, is that the sound of sleigh bells I hear in the distance? Poor things died of thirst, they did. Penned by J.C. Newton. Saturday, August 21, 2010. My Front Yard and Other Thoughts.

Growing Young: Observations from Aisle 6
http://jcnewton.blogspot.com/2010/12/observations-from-aisle-6.html
Friday, December 10, 2010. Observations from Aisle 6. Scattershooting while walking down every aisle in the South Lewisville Wal-Mart. (except I'm at home now because I ain't got one of them fancy-schmancy phones to post from the road). 8212; That picking up two items can sometimes take forever at Wal-Mart. Especially when you walk down every aisle. 8212; That the price of groceries keeps creeping higher, much like a weed. It doesn't grow during the day but somehow it's bigger the next morning. The Singl...

Friday, December 10, 2010. I just ran across this interesting Yahoo article. Also, did you know that where you cast your eyes says something about the sincerity of the question? How is your nonverbal communication? Feel free to compare. Looking in a mirror always helps. Click on each picture of the woman to see that section of the story. Penned by J.C. Newton.

Growing Young: April 2010

Friday, April 30, 2010. Jennifer Knapp Comes Out". I had wondered what happened to Jennifer Knapp, the hotshot Christian folk artist who hit the music scene 13 years ago when I was still a college lad. The songs off her debut album "Kansas" struck a chord with Christians across the country because the acoustic-driven, brutally honest and theologically rich tunes stood out from the mainstream of Contemporary Christian Music (CCM). Jennifer Knapp Comes Out Music Christianity Today. Lives with our prayers, ...
