Putting the TRINITY in your day


You'd have to go back to February 18th, 2008, to find our very first post to this blog. It was called Renaissance Men (and Women). One of main purposes of that post was to promote balance within our lives...mental, physical, and emotional balance.

Yesterday was one of those days I wrote about -- spending time in church, library, and gym. I managed to have a real TRINITY Day. I went to morning church, did a stair workout at my fire department's hose tower, and read a book at home in my "brain room."

Days like those are hard to come by. I even snuck in an in-bed nap in the afternoon. What a great day.

Post in comments what book you are currently reading. When there are five responses, I'll post what I am reading this week....

I am reading The Warrior Diet, and from the Book of Acts for a Bible Study class.

Finishing "The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History"

Interesting statement in the book, somewhat relevant to a recent conversation led by Lou: "It is better to assume the burdens of leadership than to drift along in the shadows."

Just finished "Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith" by Jon Krakauer. It's about a murder committed by two Mormon brothers, and how the history of the LDS church played a factor.

But now into "Dressed to Kill: A Biblical Approach to Spiritual Warfare and Armor" by Rick Renner.

Although both books coincidentally include themes of death and religion, they couldn't be less similar than black and white.

I read "Under the Banner of Heaven: A Story of Violent Faith" too. I kept saying "wow" all the way through it.
