What To Do About Sugar?

“sugar doesn’t just sweeten your foods, it also messes with your biology, making you cranky, overweight, and, in a word, sick.” – Sugar Free: The Complete Guide to Quit Sugar & Lose Weight Naturally by Sonoma Press Pie, donuts, cookies, candy, ice cream they all sound so good and make my mouth start to water. What I do know is that just about 2 years ago my wife and I began a lifestyle change that included what we were eating. One thing we began to cut out in large part was sugary foods. After losing over 100 pounds I can say that it was all worth it. “sugar is in fact more addictive than cocaine” – Sugar Free: The Complete Guide to Quit Sugar &…

The Keyword is “Since” Not “If”

ByTim Nolte
As a follow up to my previous post it’s important that we remember that everything we are called to do as a Christ follower is in the context of “since” and not “if”. What’s the difference? If we have the thinking, “if someone is doing ‘x’, or not doing ‘y’, they can’t be a believer”, we are basically inferring that someone has no faith or belief in Christ because of their actions. That’s a pretty big leap, and a sure fire way to further the view that Christians are righteous, judgemental, hippacrits, essentially modern day Pharisees. As we dig into the New Testament we’ll find it’s very clear that as a result of being, or “since” we are, Christ followers there should be a lot…

10 More Miles And 2 Years Ago

ByTim Nolte
It was great weather for a 10 miles run this morning. As I finished things up I was reminded that just 2 years ago I was blessed to be hanging out with a bunch of children in Sierra Leone. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon #RiverBankRun I had hoped to return there last year but things didn’t work out. Traveling to Sierra Leone and seeing first hand the hardship of the lack of clean water, as well as the blessings a village experiences when a well is put in, is something that I will never forget. Let me tell you, until you have an experience like that your world view is pretty narrow minded. It’s that experience that has driven much of my perspective on the impact…

Starting Off The Week With A Long Wet Training Run

ByTim Nolte
Despite the rain and chill, caused by a little breeze, it was decent enough to get out for a longer run. The weather was still a big motivator to keep going, which unfortunately caused my pace to be faster than what the training plan called for, but oh well. #Endomondo I enjoyed a run full of #worship music, but I felt so overwhelmed by the needs of friends and family, physically; emotionally; and spiritually, that it was very hard to focus and being very specific in my prayers. Perhaps this morning was supposed to be more about worship then bringing the never-ending mound of needs to Him. I’m still hoping to continue to raise money for more wells. I’d love to be able to hit…

    pIn the U.S. water is so easily available that it’s easy to take it for granted. In places like Sierra Leone water is not so easy to come buy or at least clean water that won’t cause other issues. #HWI #Run4Water #WhyIRun #GRMarathon/p
