Ready to “Hit the ground Running?!”
Man, I missed you all!
And God has given me a renewed sense of passion and urgency like never before!
So, are you all ready?
Are you really, really, ready?
If so, meet me at the Brook (that’s Southbrook’s worship center) tomorrow night for our “Mid Week Fix!”
I’m going to give you all a ’sneak peek’ at our upcoming, […]

I’m Back…Again.
Yes, it was sad to hear one so young (see this post if you have absolutely no idea what I’m talking about) regurgitate the Shirley McClainish, San Francisco like, progressive (please), self defeating, dribble she’d been spoon fed her whole life.
It hardly seems fair.
But then again, how was she any different than so many others […]

I’ll Be Back!
Ok, there’s something I need to tell you even before first things first.
I actually did write a post from Costa Rica (safe to disclose at this point).
However, I did not post it.
Soooooo….
I won the bet.
I just thought I should clear that up.
Now, on to…
First Things First
I saw […]

Guest Blogger, Paul Allen
The Parable of HGTV
Hi, my name’s Paul and I like TV. I know, I talk to so many folks who say, “Oh, I don’t have time for television”, or “I just don’t find that much I enjoy watching.” But not me, if I’m not careful, I can have the television on way too many hours. […]

My First Run: Part 3
Is it any wonder that the Apostle Paul referred to running so often in the New Testament? “We run this race with patience that is set before us,” he says. “Don’t you know that in a race, all the runners compete for the prize?” For a great number of people, the […]

My First Run: Part 2
Here’s what I did didn’t do next…
No stretching. No warming up. No running shoes. No time to digest my
carbohydrate grease feast from lunch.
I was wearing Nike hightop basketball shoes when they came to get me.
About 8 of them. All skinny and fit. Wearing Asics Gels and ankle
socks. Juniors and Seniors, they […]

My First Run: Part 1
Guest Blogger: Clayton King
College. The mention of the word can inspire a thousand different images and as many different memories.
Lots of people opine about their college days. Some of them recall favorite proffesors, most difficult classes, all-nighters finishing a paper. Many more wish they could have it back; little responsibility, afternoon […]

Chillin in Central America!
No, I have not fallin off the face of the earth.
Yes, the rumors are true. The Singleton clan was resting and vacationing at an undisclosed location in Central America (hint, it´s south of Nicaragua and North of Panama — still is, as far as I know).
Plus, I contracted ´blog fever´ while there — a rare but […]

You Can’t Handle the Truth! Part 2
So, I faced the fact that I wasn’t going to be the next Englebird Humperdink (sp?).
And I came to grips with the reality that I wasn’t likely to be the next Franz Klammer either (look him up if you’re under 30!).
Are those things wrong?
Hardly.
They just weren’t for me.
Not what God’s ultimate plan was. […]

You Can’t Handle the Truth! Part 1
So many people say they want to get better…
Get smarter,
Become a better athlete,
Draw closer to God,
Make the world a better place
Stop poverty
End Terrorism
Take your pick. I got more!
The list goes on and on, but today I was wondering why so few of us ever get very far with these lofty goals.
As you probably guessed by […]

Looking for something to do on a Friday night?
I’ve gone to a couple of these (see photos below) events on a Friday night (when I’ve been in town) and they are absolutely off the hook!
Some of you have been asking when ‘Gal Friday’ would be back at the Promenade,
When is Southbrook’s CD coming out?
Are any of the other CD’s from our […]

When you’re in the Desert, You’ll look for water!
I can’t sleep.
It’s midnight and I desperately need to sleep, but I can’t.
In fact, I’m wide awake.
And what’s worse, I’m actually wrestling.
I’m serious. It’s the stinkin UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championships) right here at the Singleton home.
And the most dreadful thing of all?
I keep hearing Adrian (you know, from Rocky IV) saying over and over again […]

Australia vs. England
Part 3
So, you thought I had to be referring to ‘Christians’ didn’t you?
And you now know that’s wrong.
So, have you figured it out?
Did sleeping on it do the trick?
This series really isn’t about Christians – anymore than it’s really about Australia or England.
It’s more about rivalries.
The greatest […]

Australia vs. England Part 2
Rivalries can be fun, huh?
Remember your high school rivalries?
For me it was Dulaney verses Towson or Loch Raven. Everyone paints their faces, or cheers for their team, or decorates their vehicle or something.
After high school it’s college.
After college it might be a professional team.
Everything is supposed to be in good clean fun.
But what if the […]

Australia vs. England Part 1
Let the games begin!
Ok, I better get serious here REAL FAST, because I’ve learned that the rivalry between Mother England and (daughter?) Australia is VERY REAL.
I’m not even going to touch that in this 2 part series. No, I’m after chasing down an entirely different rabbit trail, so bear with me please.
Well…maybe I’ll just touch […]
