Learning as I go . . .

This is an apology to many of you who get posts from Attempts at Honesty by email. I made a mistake and I’m sorry for it.

WordPress (the platform I use to manage the blog) uses plugins to add functionality. I had been using one plugin that provided many functions that I didn’t use so I decided to find more efficient options. I chose to add only the functions that I really need. In theory, this will speed page load times.

Unfortunately, when I deleted the all-in-one plugin, I didn’t realize that it would also disable email distribution of the posts. So you may have missed the last post or two.

I have now added all the email addresses to the new list so everyone who signed up should be getting this post by email. I’m learning as I go . . .

Defective

Defective raw material?

It is a bit surprising that when Samuel went to the house of Jesse to anoint one of Jesse’s sons as king, David was the last one that either Jesse or Samuel thought had the raw material for kingship.

What we need versus what we want

The curious thing about this familiar Sunday School story is that when the man was let down from the roof so that Jesus could heal him, Jesus does not directly address his paralysis. Jesus spoke to the man about his sin.

Knock

Ask, Seek and Knock

Luke 11:9–10 (ESV) 9 And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. In response to these […]
