Final Post?

there has been some speculation on this site as to the whereabouts of cheryl glenn. well.... i can tell you. she is indeed alive and well. and.... i believe that this blog will be shutting down. it's been a long time coming. but.... here's the deal. i love to blog. i really do. and.... i still want to have a venue where i can get my thoughts out. but.... for one reason or another, this page, in some ways, represents a past season of my life. and.... i feel like i need a fresh start.

so.... i will be moving. and i'll warn you. my new page won't be very snazzy. it'll probably just stick to a simple blogger template. but.... it will allow me to find my voice again.

when i get my new page.... i'll post the address, so you can keep up. and then.... beyond that, this page will be no more.

thanks for your emails and comments. the support for this page has always been something that boggled my mind.

what books i'm into

things we couldn't say

by diet eman
an incredible book about a dutch couple during the holocaust, who saved hundreds of jews' lives. it's an amazing story.

the kite runner

by khaled hosseini
this mesmorizing novel is the story of a afghan father and son, servant and master, and husband and wife. it's a story of betrayal, guilt and redemption. absolutely amazing. a must read!

eleanor rigby

by douglas coupland
i'm a sucker for a good coupland book. i love each one! it all started when matt blair gave me 'generation x' and now i've read them all. can't wait to get deeper into this one!

god of the possible

by gregory boyd
Does God ever change his mind? Is the future exhaustively settled, or does it include maybes? Why does God create certain people if he knows they are going to hell? Does God foreknow the outcome of every decision we will ever make? an interesting look at open theology.

god's politics

by jim wallis
wow. what an incredible book. written by the head of sojourners. this book will make all of us think. liberal, conservative and in between.

my sister's keeper

by jodi picoult
looking for some good fiction? jodi picoult writes with the best of them. there's just something about the way she writes.... the word pictures that she is able to create. you feel like you are right there in the scene. amazing novel. truly riveting.

worlds collide

by alison strobel
an up and coming novelist. alison strobel morrow writes with an authenticity and realness that you can relate to while you're reading. i laughed out loud in parts and even caught myself with tears in my eyes at the end. buy it. you won't be disappointed.

what's on my ipod

Mutual Admiration Society
by Mutual Admiration Society
got the idea to by this off of another blog. it's an awesome cd. it's glen phillips (toad the wet sprocket) on lead vocals and nickel creek on everything else. pretty amazing.

Starfield
by Starfield
laurianne cates suggested i get this cd. so i bought it on my birthday. i'm loving it. acoustic rock, i guess you'd call it. i especially like #10, 'can i stay here forever?'

share the well
by caedmon's call
i've always loved caedmon's call and this project, which shine's light on the poverty in india, is in my opinion, their most creative project to date.

how to dismantle an atomic bomb
by U2
well, what can you say about this cd.... it's u2 and it rocks out. i love this band.... and i'll see them live in april!

american idiot
by green day
i haven't bought a green day cd since high school. and i have to admit.... i actually like them a lot. and this cd is worth the fifteen bucks.
