Yes We Can!

Words have power. They have force and can move people to action. I was reminded of this last night as our family watched news on TV. When the presidential candidates began to show up on the screen my two year old daughter began to shout - "Yes we can! Yes we can!" Barak Obama got to her.

I probably will not be voting for Barak Obama but I am impressed at his ability to harness the creative power of words. Molly Katherine, Sen. Obama and Bob the Builder believe in the power of "can." Shouldn't all of us Christians embrace the power of language to extend the hope of the kingdom. I think we should.

My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer. Psalm 45:1

Perry,

Great to hear from you. I thought about you with the storm hit Union University. Have you heard from anyone up there?

Not directly. I have been reading some blogs and message boards.

I am registering for my first Trimester @ NOBTS this week. I am probably going to tailor my work around biblical Studies. How is your work coming along?
