three signs of the (good) end times

Frangipane helpfully reminds that not all "signs of the end times" are "bad."

(for another interesting take on the topic that doesn't drop to the level of "evangelical pornography," try "Hurtling Toward Oblivion: A Logical Argument for the End of the Age").
Some others to wrestle with: Justo Gonzales's "For the Healing of the Nations: The Book of Revelation in an Age of Cultural Conflict" and "The Rapture Exposed: The Message of Hope in The Book of Revelation" by Barbara R. Rossing).

I recently discovered that:

1)Elie Wiesel had written a book on the Passover Haggadah (that even in English reads right-to-left a la Hebrew)

2)T-Bone Burnett is possibly producing the next Who album

3)Jeff Schroeder has joined the Smashing Pumpkins

Good news abounds..Those are signs enough for me!(:

Before the Tipping Point tips...

Now all I need is a new laptop,
some supporters to get us to our Peru and Israel trips,
and the new David Ruis/Indigika CD...

oh, and a few friends to be healed of terrible things...
..and a missional outbreak of splangizomai

But Jesus himself may feel he has to wait for the aforementioned Burnett-Who collaboration to come out before he can return...
