Pressing On!: April 2009
http://nickmcbride.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
April 29, 2009. I typically do these random thoughts blogs when I haven't posted in a while. I just haven't had that much to post about lately, but here goes. Just watched a movie called The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. About a man that has a stroke and gets locked in his mind. He only has the ability to blink his left eye, but manages to write a book about his life and experience. True story, great movie! 160;- Incredible! April 17, 2009. 160;It was about a man by the name of Philippe Petit, who b...

January 27, 2010. It reminds me of the verse: "I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do." - Romans 7:15.

Pressing On!: July 2009
http://nickmcbride.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
July 20, 2009. I mentioned in my previous post that Kimberly took me to see the Braves play the Nationals in Washington, DC. It was my first Braves game away from Atlanta, but the 7th one overall. While I've enjoyed myself, the Braves haven't had much success when I'm in attendance. June 7, 1991 (Montreal Expos) - Steve Avery vs. Oil Can Boyd - Braves held it close at 4-1 before giving up 3 in the 8th and 4 in the 9th and lose 11-2. July 4, 2009 (Washington Nationals) - Tommy Hanson vs. John Lannan -...

March 30, 2009. Just read an amazing article about the struggles and restoration of former Newsboys singer John James. 160;You may not know who he is/was, but it's still a great story of how God can still heal all the things that we try to mess up. It's a long article, but definitely worth the reading. March 27, 2009. Capital City: Ashgabat (loosely means City of Love). Religions: Islam (89%), Eastern Orthodox (9%), Unknown (2%). One last bit of information I'll leave you with for now: In 2008 Turkmenis...

Pressing On!: September 2009
http://nickmcbride.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
September 24, 2009. I'm reading a book about a man who promised to build a school for children in a village in the mountains of Pakistan. So, he went home to America and raised money and got supplies and returned a year later only to find out that they needed a bridge first. I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry.". Clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. September 16, 2009. In everywhere we look. Allah, Allah, Allah. In everyone we meet.

June 25, 2009. Just thought I would warn everyone. So, for those who know or care, Manny Ramirez (Man-Ram) was suspended back in May for testing positive for steroids. It is a 50-game suspension without pay (meaning he'll lose 7 million in salary this year); he's set to return to the team on July 3rd. ESPN should be speaking out against this too, not going along with it and profiting off of it. June 15, 2009. Stranded on the Front Porch. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Pressing On!: February 2009
http://nickmcbride.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
February 25, 2009. I'm not if you observe Lent or not, but it's something I've been trying to observe over the last several years or so. Sometimes I'm really sucessful and sometimes not, but I usually try. I often have a hard time deciding what to give up because I want it to be a sacrifice, but I want something to motivate me. This year was easy. February 23, 2009. So, I know it's been a while since I've posted anything, but I really haven't had anything worth sharing with the outside world. These ar...

January 31, 2009. Songs for hope.and help! It might be too late to get the song that's available for January, but go here. To get the next one and keep coming back. January 28, 2009. January 26, 2009. Saturday night: Kim and I went and saw Slumdog Millionaire. Sunday morning: We went to Duke Chapel to see Shane Claiborne. And at least read some of it. January 23, 2009. 5 Years From Now. January 22, 2009. Sorry it's been a while but I really haven't had anything to write. I hope this makes up fo...I was ...

February 8, 2010. So, the Super Bowl didn't go as I had hoped, but I have to give credit to the Saints, they played an excellent game. At least a former Alabama player, Roman Harper, got himself a Super Bowl championship since he never won a BCS Championship. Well, without further ado, here are the answers to the questions from yesterday. 1 In 1998, John Elway and the Denver Broncos. Defeated the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl. 2 The Cowboys, the 49ers, and the Steelers. 3 In 1969, Joe Namath. Archi...
