Words » Announcing http://simotasia.com/words Thu, 15 Jul 2010 13:52:29 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 Finally. http://simotasia.com/words/finally/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=finally http://simotasia.com/words/finally/#comments Tue, 25 Aug 2009 20:47:45 +0000 Collin http://simotasia.com/words/?p=92 This blog / my web server has been giving me nothing but problems the last few months. Finally got it working again. I had to re-install WordPress, and then I decided to screw around with the look and feel. I think this layout is a lot more readable.

Hope you enjoy it. New (real) post later.

Ask him, it’s true. I feel like we are very much on a similar journey; one neither of us are completely ready for mentally but tend to see it blossom whenever we combine our ideas together. “Iron sharpens iron, So one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17 (NAS) I noticed this in the home group we both attend that when there’s an idea that floats around the the group and it has a chance to pass through everyone’s hands it becomes this rich, organic, almost sentient being. Basically I see this as a way to do that in written form and create a sense of dialogue via silly theological and cultural ideas. Also, I’m freshly single and find myself with more time to myself than I’m used to.

Damn, it’s late. I went and drank about 50 shots of espresso at work again.

I have only posted one entry since starting Words last week. And now I am going to get on here and tell you something is changing. In fact, I am quite excited to tell you this. 

Israel Beachy and I have been really good friends for a couple years now. You may know him from his years as bass player for Staple, or in his current band, Disciple. Anyhow, I consider him one of my best friends and I couldn’t be happier to tell all of you that he will be joining me in writing for Words. Israel and I see eye to eye on most everything, and when we don’t, we have an incredible mutual respect for each other’s opinions. 

I am quite excited for the discussions and the insight that will come from turning this from something more personal to more of a collective thought process. I hope you are too. 

Welcome, Israel.
