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.

Bethel is even cooler than expected

Within 90 minutes of landing in Redding, I learned of Bethel students engaged in business solutions to extreme poverty. Monday I heard a powerful teaching from Bill Johnson on how life on Earth offers us the only chance to worship God in the midst of our pain, suffering, loss, and confusion.  When we are in heaven we won't have the chance to give God that gift.  Bill's teaching reaffirmed this ongoing theme that suffering matters.  Suffering creeps me out but I can not deny that suffering somehow leads to intimacy with Christ. Monday night gave me a few a hours to meet a great house church where blue collar types mingled with Bethel alum. Prophecy and healing flowed amidst their faith and love.  God gave me a chance to pray for healing for one of the guys. This tested my faith when his knee actually got a little worse in the first couple of minutes of prayer. That hurt my pride.  Fortunately during the second bout of prayer his knee healed completely.  V...
