Technology, Theology, and Anything In Between

I currently have two VPS systems that I’m using to test out IPv6 connectivity.  One of them is with arpnetworks, and the other is with nerios.  More companies I’ve noticed are offering native IPv6 connectivity, and assigning /64 or /48 blocks to users.
Incidentally, I’d like to recommend arpnetworks as a provider of FreeBSD and OpenBSD [...]

I was reading this post by Missionary/Pastor David Cloud, and it got me thinking about my own life and television.  While I have some strong disagreements with the kind of Christianity his web site encourages (I am probably considered a New Evangelical by that group, even though I have serious problems with New Evangelicals as [...]

While I am probably best described as a dispensationalist, I get frustrated with the system quite frequently.  I get very frustrated with the Independent Baptist movement sometimes too.  There are many good things I can say about Independent Baptists, and even dispensational theology.   There are some negative things that I do wish to point [...]

I created two channels on IRC, related to my own theology interests.  You can stop by #baptist, or #anabaptist on DALnet anytime.  Most times I’m on IRC in the early to late evening, but I do have an account where I stay logged in.  So please drop by and say hello if you are an [...]

It is now another new year.  Time to think about what to do differently this year, and set some goals.  My big goals this year are to get through the pile of books that I have.  I could easily read many of them in two months, but I’m trying to take notes and record them [...]

I’ve been very busy during the months of November/December, so that is why I haven’t posted since October.  There are many things in life that take priority over blogging.  I’m hoping to get back to a normal schedule of at least two posts per month in 2010.
This year, I studied many theological books and articles.  [...]

I want to thank any of my regular readers, especially if you have clicked on my advertising.  I received my first check from Adsense today, which has been 4 years in the making.  While this blog contributed maybe 10% of the total payout, it has been helpful.
I know there are debates about whether or not [...]

If you are like most software engineers, you are probably worried about keeping your job, and what would happen if you were laid off. While none of us can predict the future, here is an idea to help stay organized, should a search become necessary.

If you have a web server, either one on the [...]

I realize very few people that are my friends will need this information, but there are a few that may benefit from it. To that end, I wanted to write about an ongoing problem I’ve had with a break-in that happened to me. One of my development systems on the Internet was compromised [...]

I’ve not been posting for awhile, due to some intense configuration of a new server with Xen, and also installing Asterisk on an existing server.  My intentions are to lower my fixed hosting and telephone costs by using virtualized servers, and by using Asterisk for an interactive IVR to help route support and sales calls [...]
