Back in July of this year, I was walking with some friends on a trail at Rend Lake. At a wide spot in the trail we stopped to look around, and I noticed this unusual flower:

Florida Keys Vacation
NOTE: The photos below, as well as additional ones not seen here, can be seen at larger sizes on my Facebook page.
On the Sunday that ASI finished, my mom and I headed south from Tampa for a vacation in the Florida Keys. We decided to take the southern route, Highway 41.
Cave-in-Rock State Park
Since moving to Illinois about nine years ago, one place I’ve often heard about but had never visited is Cave-in-Rock. It was a little further distance to drive than the places our young adult group usually visits, but I was glad I went.
I put a collection of photos up on Facebook:
3ABN Spring Camp Meeting and Ten Commandments Weekend
We had a great camp meeting and Ten Commandments Weekend this year. It’s the first time we combined them and had them here at 3ABN’s Worship Center.
There was a great turnout. I’ve put some photos on Facebook (link below), and then I’ve added a few other photos below that.
“Our Heritage” Rock Skipping Photo
The first installment in my series “Our Heritage” appears in the June 3ABN World magazine. I wanted a creative introduction to this first story, and this is what I came up with:
I stand at the edge of a small lake. It’s quiet here—a good place to meditate, to think. As I skip a rock across the water, I notice the ripples. At each point where the stone strikes the surface of the lake, waves radiate outward. Together they look like a series of points, each sending out signal waves in every direction. In a sense, that’s what this series is about. Our Christian heritage is a string of pivotal events, each with its own lasting repercussions in the stream of time. It’s a story that inspires me every time I think of it.
