Bloggers for a Cause: Charity: Water

During the month of September a community of 30 bloggers are teaming together to raise $30,000 in 30 days for the organization Charity: Water so they can aid them into providing clean drinking water to individuals throughout the world.

Almost a million people on the planet do not have the access to clean drinking water. What is even sadder that that is it is so easy for us to help and we do not. So instead of eating out this week tkae that money and provide for others. Show God’s love through your gift. (Give Today!)

The following is a video about the project:

Charity: Water Mission:

100% of public donations go directly to water projects. All operating costs are covered by a group of private donors so every dollar you give can go to people in need.

Just $20 can give one person clean water for 20 years. An average water project costs $5,000 and can serve 250 people with clean, safe water.

Go ahead….Change Someone’s Life Today!(Give Today!)

Don’t forget to spread the word!!!

One Hand, Two Hands by Max Lucado, Illustrated by Gaby Hansen

As a received One Hand, Two Hands by Max Lucado yesterday I immediately knew that this book would be getting its ultimate critique from my son at bed time.

The book was written to teach children what an important tool their hands are. It teaches that with your hands you are able to do so many things from helping and serving others to sitting down at the end of the day and folding them together to pray. Too a child the rhyming of the story creates a fun little jingle for them. Continue Reading…

Many Adventures with Clive Cussler

If you have never read a book by Clive Cussler I would highly suggest you do so. All of his books are packed with adventure and suspense and real page turners.

The fist fictitious character that Cussler created back in 1965 was marine engineer,  government agent, and adventurer Dirk Pitt. He has produced twenty books from this character and each is as intriguing as the last. I read my first Dirk Pitt novel in high school when I went to the library one day to find a good read for the summer. I had never been much of a reader before, but I thought it would pass the summer days before I started to college. So I walked around a while and then I picked up this old torn and ragged book titled “Raise the Titanic”. I read the entire book that day. After reading the book I immediately wanted to read more from this author whose writing style and story development left me on the edge of my seat and totally engaged. I was hooked. I went on the internet (dial-up) and researched other titles from Cussler on this character Dirk Pitt. To my excitement there were numerous other book in the series that I would be able to read. So that summer I read the majority of the Dirk Pitt series and by the end of the year I had read them all. Then I was left to wait for other Dirk Pitt titles to come out. Continue Reading…

This something that we will all have to face one day. Some sooner than others, and in different ways. We all though, will die.

That is what I heard in a sermon this past Sunday. Continue Reading…
