The best of the archives

Today Laura and I will be traveling to California where I will be speaking at Brethren National Youth Conference and then attending our Fellowship of Grace Brethren Churches National Adult Conference. During that time, several of our church staff will join me and we will be visiting four different local churches including that of Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life. Following Adult Conference, my family and I will be spending a few extra vacation days on the West Coast, spending a day at Disneyland and attending a Dodger’s baseball game among other things.

So what will happen to my blog while I am away? When Rush Limbaugh is away he often has a guest host fill in for him behind his golden microphone. Unfortunately, I really don’t have anyone waiting in the wings to be my substitute blog writer. Yet, there are some times that instead of a fill-in host, Rush will instead just delve into the archives and spend a week re-airing some of his best shows of the past. That is what I have decided to do over the next two weeks. Beginning tomorrow and running through Friday, August 11th, I have picked 13 of my favorite postings from the year 2005. So, welcome to the archives. This “best of” series will include the following postings:

• April 5, 2005 - The men in my life
