Just what it says…General

Song #1

February 11, 2011 — Leave a comment

So last year, I wrote my first song.  I totally forgot that I sent in a copyright registration for it (though i think technically you don’t really need to do that).

Anyway, my certificate came in the mail today!

The song was for our missions conference at church.  I still have not recorded a good, clean version, but I uploaded a rough cut here a while back.

I  sort of made a resolution to write more this year.  More to follow…

Great article over at dumblittleman.com

Not to add anything to this great article, but to simply remind those of us who follow Christ that the words we speak are as much worship of God as the songs we sing at church:

Let every detail in your lives—words, actions, whatever—be done in the
name of the Master, Jesus, thanking God the Father every step of the way.

Colossians 3:17 [MSG]

Yesterday’s post prompt on “The Daily Post at WordPress.com” was:

Describe the worst teacher you ever had.

My response:

I can honestly say that I can’t recall a “worst” teacher in my academic career – though I guess this post really hinges on how you define “worst.”  There must be some who meet that description or handle – I guess I must have been lucky.  The truth is, I had some great teachers.

What I can share is an interesting story about a professor I had in college.  One who was tough, but good.  I don’t recall the professor’s name, but it was a History course…

I’m trying something new today by using the poll feature to gauge what people think on a few things.  I may do this each Tuesday for variety in my posts.

If you’d like to clarify your response (though it won’t be necessarily anonymous), feel free to comment below!
