Reflections on Born Again Baldwin

I finally finished The Idiot today after months of it sitting on a self. Busyness has made reading a bit difficult, and this book isn't exactly a light read. Anyway, it was a good book, but a little bit harder to read then some of Dostoevsky's other stuff. The fact that it's far more character driven then plot drive also makes it hard. But, it's theme of Christian love and goodness being view as foolishness and idiocy by the world makes it very relative to today.

In other news, Kathi and I were watching CNN last night, and they were interviewing Stephen Baldwin. He was relating how some time ago him and his wife came to faith in Jesus! This is the same guy who did BioDome with Pauly Shore! The Lord works in mysterious ways. With that said, it was amazing to hear him talk about his faith in some pretty bold and fearless ways. It was actually quite convicting.

It's also nice to know there's someone praying earnestly for Alec Baldwin.

Istn it funny how you have three comments about Stephen Balwin and none about the "new world order" as you put it, part three? just thought it was interesting - people more comfortable making jokes than discussing something more weighty. Not bad, of course, just interesting...
