Baseball America
Over the past year here at Born Bleeding, I have posted over 40 blogs. With the one year anniversary coming up on Saturday, I thought I would ask my friend and fellow blogger, Aimee Whetstine from Everyday Epistle to write something for me. Aimee is no baseball expert but after reading what she wrote, she […]
Back to Life, Back to Reality
No I am not thinking of the old Soul II Soul song here. (1) I am talking about coming down from the two ‘mountain top’ experiences I have had recently. For those of you that don’t know, a ‘mountain top’ experience is when a Christian has an amazing week that is devoted to God thru fellowship, teaching, […]
My View While at Northern Pines
What if I told you that you could go to a place where you could have the best time of your life for a week? You would also be making friends from all over the country. You would get to hear great Christian speakers. You would be doing all this while discovering the wonderful things […]
Thank You Covington
Recently I had the privilege of going down to Louisiana with a good friend, Mike Rohman, to team lead with EFCA touchglobal during their summer workgroups. There is still work to be done rehabbing houses affected by hurricane Katrina. Mike did more of the leading, but I think I was a pretty good second in […]
What Jack and Darryl Did For Cardinals Nation and America
Next week will be the 10 year anniversaries of the deaths of Jack Buck and Darryl Kile. 10 years. Wow. I remember these events better than some things I did last week. It took the Angels coming to town for the first time in their history to take Jack Buck up to heaven. I remember […]
Grateful Dad
I have to say I am a pretty lucky guy. My son Josh is a good kid. He’s smart, athletic, a leader, and a good example for other kids. What worries me are the times ahead. I remember my difficult teenage years. I know that me and my wife have given Josh a better foundation […]
41
You ever get to the point where you need to reflect? I am there. Today I am turning 41. Not some magical birthday, but just another year older. I decided that it would be fun to do a little research and see if I could come up with some interesting things about the number 41. […]
What’s In My Head Right Now
I am wondering a few things this week. These are things that have kind of been on my mind for a bit. Who actually reads my blog? I mean I know I am getting site visits and some new followers here and there but are people actually reading this? I know my blog has only […]
Trying to be a Courageous Father
My parents were divorced when I was in kindergarten. I haven’t spoken to my dad since I was in high school. I know he knew I went in the Marines but other than that I am not sure. He still owes my Mother and my late Grandparents lots of money in back child support, medical […]
My 5 St. Louis Cardinals Iconic Moments
As part of my membership in the United Cardinals Bloggers, I have the opportunity to write a blog each month based on a topic they provide. I figured I would take a stab at the first month’s topic of 5 Iconic Cardinals Moments. I am not ranking these because for me, they may change from […]
