The Best of Everything

This is my list of stuff that is simply the Best in whatever it is they do. Some are great ideas for gifts, some are organizations to support.

Mozilla Firefox is the best web browser out there. Microsoft has more or less abandoned development of IE so Firefox has done a fantastic job keeping up to speed with the development of the web. I use Firefox everyday.
Google Mail Gmail is the best email service out there and it's free. Let me know if you want an invite. I use GMail every day and enjoy teaching others how to use it.
Leatherman Wave's are just outright the best tool to have. I got one strapped to my backpack. The first time I got one was for a month long trip to Honduras and I used every single day of the trip.
VW Golf. If I didn't get so many speeding tickets, I would still own a VW Golf. They are beautiful machines and very smooth at 90 mph.

www.ashoka.org is the most intelligently conceived nonprofit I know. Their whole mission is to find and support the people dedicated to empowering the poor and the oppressed through business and they are are getting results.


Ender's Game is the best work of fiction ever. Forget Shakespeare, or Tolkien, Stephen King. Orson Scott Card is the Man. No other book even comes close.

Is That Really You God? This is the best nonfiction book I read this year, a beautiful example of following God in modern times. I recommend it to everybody. I've already it read several times this year.
A Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh, the best painting. It's just that cool I had to put it on the list.

I went on a retreat this year the weekend before Easter with my church to go through the process of taking inventory of my sin and repenting of it. My prayer life is stronger than ever now because there is no longer that wall of unrepented sin blocking Him from hearing me.

The YWAM VA Experience

Before Che Guevara hooked up with Fidel Castro to start the revolution in Cuba, he used his training in medicine as a ticket to travel all over Latin America offering help wherever he went and build relationships across the continent. I am finding out my ticket to travel the world and serve is computers. Serving YWAM VA as resident computer geek has been an awesome excuse to build relationships with YWAM missionaries, and learn more about what God is putting on people's hearts to do for His kingdom. Several ywamer's here ( Monica , Kay, and Mike) are answering the call to mend a very damaged relationship between Jews and Christians. After a couple millenia of organized Christianity committing atrocities against the Jewish people there is now a new flood of Jews discovering Jesus. Christians are finally treating Jews in a Christ-like manner and they are responding by embracing Jesus as their Messiah. The Jewish World Office Ywamers here are pretty excited to see the number of M...
