KFUO broadcasts and archives services from three churches in the St. Louis this morning. A couple of days ago Pastor Weedon tipped readers that Rev. Todd Wilken, former host of Issues, Etc., would preach from the pulpit of Peace Lutheran in St. Louis.
KFUO doesn’t have the archive of the worship service yet, but Peace Lutheran’s [...]
Update: The name of the National Forest has been corrected.
Having visited Arches National Park in Moab, UT, nearly three years ago, this weekend I went for colder climes: the 11,000-foot Grand Mesa National Forest, just east of Grand Junction, CO.
My route took me east past Palisade, then south past the Powderhorn ski resort and into [...]
Since I was flying cross-country, I spent some United points and upgraded my flight to First Class for the first two of the three legs I had to fly today.
When I arrived in Chicago, I noticed that my seat said “6A.” Six-A? The 737 that had the most First Class seats had four [...]

The flight into Chicago took us over Lake Michigan, and the fogless [...]
We went to the Children’s Museum in Cleveland. It was the last day of the Galapagos Sand exhibit, which was an indoor sand box about the size of a hotel room. The exhibit included a small ship, a tent, various things to bury and unearth, and a sand sculpture of a turtle. Fenced [...]
I arrived early at Lutheran Church of Prayer in Bakersfield. I caught Pastor Robert. W. Lutjens preparing pre-service announcements on PowerPoint slides. When the time came for church, the projector was turned off, and the screen was rolled up. He was gracious enough to allow some conversation time.
LCOP has TLH in its pews, but most [...]
For my day off I drove down to Los Angeles and Hollywood.
My first stop was the Hard Rock Cafe in Hollywood. I got there right at opening and got really good service. The waitress informed me that the Los Angeles location was temporarily shut down; the landlord had raised the rent, and the HRC [...]
I’d had some warning that the weather was going to be rough in Columbus, so I spent some of my few United miles and got a First Class ticket. The first leg, from Sacramento to Denver, went fine, and I got some cool pictures from the window of the airplane:
