Guitar Praise: Guitar Hero Minus the Sex, Drugs and Rock 'n Roll [Christiantech] (11)
on Gizmodo (17610) permalinkWhen you siphon the antiestablishmentism out of rock 'n roll, you get one of two things—Christian rock or The Jonas Brothers. Neither is the most ideal listening situation. Still, we're not ones to judge, so here's just the thing for all of you Christian rockers in the audience. Guitar Praise, the Christian response to Guitar Hero, is coming soon to Mac and PC for $100.

The Benediction for the Democratic National Convention on Monday Night (1)
on News & Main page (2) permalinkI was honored to deliver the closing prayer at the DNC on Monday night. Evangelical voices have been scarce within this party, perhaps since the Carter administration. But as strides are being made on key issues of sanctity of life and social justice, as well as peaceful solutions to world conflicts, more and more evangelicals are taking a closer look at options certain members of the Democratic Party are beginning to deliver. There is a ...Shared by Timothy (32)Contribute comment

How Can I be Me When You're being You? (1)
on Essential Reads (6) permalinkMost people get married because they like the way they are with their partners - loving, compassionate, engaging, supportive, sexy, and flexible. They get divorced because they don't like the way they are with their partners - resentful, turned off, frustrated, rigid, or bored, all of which they blame on their relationship. In the course of this death march, many go into marriage therapy to find better ways to manipulate their partners into, at best, ...Shared by Timothy (32)Contribute comment

- Barry Wynn said: Good blogs try. I’ve come to believe that creative life in the first-world comes down to those who try just a little bit harder. Then, there’s the other 98%. They’re still eating the free continental breakfast over at FriendFeed. A good blog is written by a blogger who thinks longer, works harder, and obsesses more. Ultimately, a good blogger tries. That’s why “good” is getting rare.

15 Astonishing Real-Life Applications of Nanotechnology (25)
