Quiet Time June 23, 2009: Celebrate Freedom Now

June 24th, 2009 · No Comments · Dan's Quiet Time

I suppose the combination of the July 4th holiday being on the horizon combined with the events in Iran have caused me to think a lot lately about being free.  We talk about our freedoms and whether (or to what extent) they are being eroded by the current politics in the US.  So my mind [...]

Quiet Time June 11, 2009: Does God Really Hate Anything

June 11th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Dan's Quiet Time

Quiet Time June 10, 2009: Am I a Man Who Perverts His Ways

June 10th, 2009 · No Comments · Dan's Quiet Time

I posted a video on YouTube yesterday that describes in my view what is happening in the Chrysler bankruptcy as it relates to the bondholders.

Quiet Time June 6, 2009: It’s Not What You Think

June 8th, 2009 · No Comments · Dan's Quiet Time

In Psalm 7 David is crying out to God over some claim, charge or criticism that has been put on him by someone (perhaps Cush, a Benjamite).  He calls out to God for God to place his judgment on this bad guy.  
In verse 9 he writes, “Oh, [...]

Quiet Time June 2, 2009: Thank God for New Beginnings

June 3rd, 2009 · No Comments · Dan's Quiet Time

As I read Proverbs 2 this morning I was struck by the fact that every month I restart my reading of this great book of wisdom.  In much the same way, each month I get a new and clean slate to build a productive life upon.
The last few days have literally been a whirlwind for [...]
