I thought it might be fun to share with you some of the websites I enjoy. Pay close attention to the heading, these are some of my favorites – it doesn’t say “recommended” sites. I also held back on some of my favorite sports sites – Browns, Buckeyes, Big Red Machine. It would be more fascinating to discover which websites are your favorites! Please leave a comment letting us know your favorite websites. We may all learn new sites from your comments. See below my links for “comments” information. Thanks for participating; I look forward to your contributions.
Here are a few I use:

Blogspot is an independent site operated by Google. It is actually not part of our church website. You can link to the blog from our church website however. To leave comments, you will find that Google asks for a password. There are several ways to obtain a password, you may already have one. If you use Gmail, that login works, if you are independently signed up with your own blog on blogspot, that log in works, or you can obtain a Google password. It is easy. Just click on “Comments” following my blog, and it will prompt you to sign up for a password. Google’s site says it is hoping to eliminate the need for passwords to leave comments at some point in the future. At the top right of our Blog page also has a place to sign in.
I hope you have enjoyed my links, and I look forward to seeing yours!

Pastor Randy:
Some of those links were really great. Here are a couple I really like:
Arts and Letters Daily (www.aldaily.com): This site has everything do with any form of reading. They list newspapers from every where, book reviews, all magazines, links to TV, columnists, radio music, radio news, blogs, and all TV news by network. It is endless, and there is so much more than what I have written!
Snopes.com (www.snopes.com): This is a really cool site, it lists urban legends, and tells whether they are true or not. Even those warning emails that we all get as junk mail sometimes can be found on this site, and this site will tell you if the story is true or not.
Web Devotions Daily (www.netministries.org/webdev.html): A one stop place to see a large variety of daily devotions. Chances are it also includes every one you know of such as, “The Daily Bread”. This site is worth checking out!

There are two more site I love. They both have radio programs that you can listen to on their website, or podcast. I download all the shows to my iPod.
The Bible Answer Man (whom is Hank Hanegraff) has a great question/answer show on all the different religions. He just published a new book. This is just one piece of the Christian Research Institute.
The Christian Research Institute is www.equip.org
The other site is Chip Ingram's, "Living On the Edge". He is the president of Walking Through the Bible. I knew him as Pastor of the Santa Cruz Bible Church. He still does a daily radio show which you can catch online. He is one of the best. His site it www.lote.org
Enjoy!

Both of those sites are excellent and I would highly "recommend" them!

Thanks Sallie, you are right, that is a good site! I was surprised to see "Cornerstone" listed with the magazines. I have been a longtime subscriber to them.

Okay, not spiritual nor "sporty" but I love www.thefreedictionary.com . It has a vocabulary word of the day which can accurately pronounce the word if you cannot. In addition, there is the spelling bee section with different levels of difficulty and also Hangman. There are several other sections but my favorite is the daily matching game which scores your "test" right away. A must for word nerds!
Project Gutenberg is an interesting website because they have thoughsands of ebooks their to download that the copyrights have expired on. So you can find many classical ones or even rarer ones like "Overland through Asia; Pictures of Siberian, Chinese, and Tartar Life" that was published in 1870.

This was on Bob's Blog this week and then Pastor Randy preached on forgiveness..Do you think the Lord wanted to tell me something?
"Forgiveness Always Wins "
Is love what it is- fertile, abundant, life-giving and restoring - just because it gives itself away and is prepared to die? And is that because love says yes to hurt and pain and sacrifice, accepting contradiction and rejection and thus meets opposition and negation with creative, life-promoting affirmation? How could love really die as long as it surrenders itself, accepting sacrifice and death? For by that very acceptance love asserts and fulfills itself, and thus outstrips, with yet more life, the destructiveness to which it yields. Likewise, forgiving love can never be defeated: for forgiveness will be met with love or with rejection. If with love, forgiveness will have found its goal, if with rejection, that can only evoke from true forgiveness more forgiveness still...
