Weekly Roundup

Recently, guns and church have been a significant source of conversation in the blogosphere following the slayings at New Life Church and YWAM headquarters in Colorado. Bob Hyatt offers his thoughts on why churches should not be armed, while Todd Rhoades points to an article offering an alternate opinion. Personally - as one who has never shot a gun in his life - I’m inclined to lean towards Bob Hyatt’s sentiment, but I can also see the argument of the other side. Very tough issue no matter how you slice it.
2.) We’ve not sent out Christmas cards yet, mostly because it’s been pretty crazy and hectic, as advent usually is, around the Wunder-Bonewald household. We hope to get around to it, but I’m more inclined to employ this argument for not sending out cards or letters this year.
3.) Adam shares his struggles and learnings on the topic of prayer.
4.) I am a big fan of the Naked Pastor, especially his wonderful artwork which you can buy at his store on E-bay. If I had $220 of indispensable cash, I would buy one of his larger works like this one in a heartbeat.
5.) And just in case you are wondering what to get me for Christmas, here is my Amazon Wish List!
