Enjoying God My Creator! iv Frequently Asked Questions Why did you write Enjoying God My Creator!? We are parents and leaders in children’s ministry who want our children and the children we teach to learn to relate to God in a personal way. Like you, we don’t want our kids to simply know about God and recite facts or doctrine (though that’s important!). We want them to enjoy a relationship with God. We believe that learning to enjoy God while young will connect children’s hearts to God and establish a foundation of love and trust. This activity guide was designed to help children enjoy and delight in God their Creator by teaching the way children learn best1through play, activity, and FUN1while still teaching solid biblical truth! We wanted a resource that will equip parents, teachers, and other adults to teach children about God the Creator in an active, meaningful way.

  • Nine Inch Nails Music
    Over and Over Again is 30 years of live Nine Inch Nails music. Live tracks from 1988-2018. This is a live audio compilation of my live audio compilations. 90% of the tracks are from my previous 8 projects and 10% are new tracks and mixes. This project is 15 hours and 47 minutes long and has 211 tracks. One selection of every song that Trent has been on stage for as NIN and was taped is included in this. Some songs have multiple versions when needed. All the tracks have been mixed together to sound like one impossibly long concert. The tracks are structured into 11 sets roughly 85 minutes each just incase you need to take a break while listening. Additonal ramblings: Going with my past run of project titles you could call this project A Mix Of AlLThat There Ever Was Over And Over Again * " M.988-2018J if you really want to, but I’m not. \ There are some tracks that have multiple sources.

  • Dear Martin Part 2
    Part 2 - Timeline Saturday, September 12, 2020 -I awaken in the morning to a Being in the room and just by presence alone I am as wet as I was 20 years ago on November 27th. The Being has no identifiers whatsoever, the sense of Him is defined purely in terms of what I sense and feel of the encounter; -He comes to rest at the foot of my bed. I remember no thought exchange, just presence. Tuesday, September 15th – The soundtrack is still Live Spirits. Coincidentally on this day I wore a dress in a dark rich blue teal (almost green but not), that only cost $1. That evening I have a very long Facebook Messenger video cam with my youngest brother, who is working on an island cabin construction on one of Vancouver Island’s many islands, but not in the Strait on the west coast, near Clayoquot Sound. All building supplies must be shipped in by boat or helicopter. The scenery where he is working is beautiful and he’s enjoying it very much; -the isolation is doing him good. The conversation is good with a lot of candor as I listen to what he is doing. I do let him know I am flying, and that it’s such a crescendo it’s been 20 years since the last comparable episode. I call it my second midlife crisis in conversation with my siblings. The low light in my house gives an alabaster cast to my skin. My skins glows, in a V-neck almost Grecian shouldered looking dress of dark teal blue (sleeveless).

Nancy Yasecko's personal diary-documentary reminds us of those lingering, half-formed images, putting them into factual perspective without disturbing the magic that they will always hold. · Complete with an opening orgy of rocket blast­ offs to fine original technopop music by Paul Ill and Mark Wood, her film celebrates the special community, Cape Canaveral/Kennedy, where these historic events were almost as mysterious to the engineers as they were to the general public of the day. To understand this unique, government­ created scientific community, however, Yasecko focuses on her own displaced family, brought to Cocoa Beach in the early days of missile research (as one young woman observes, what began as a six month visit turned into a way of life). Through the sensitive narration (beautifully written by Nan Robinson), family anecdotes and reminiscences become imaginative reflections on this cruciaT era of change. These memories are transformed into little gems of wisdom and wit, with a sort of low­ key Southern humor, when spoken in the lovely Ell~n Gilchrist tones of Nancy Yasecko.
