By Greg Primm I’ve been reading through the book of James lately. It’s short — just 5 chapters — and only takes about 20-30 minutes to read through. I’ve read it before, but for some reason I’m really in tune with the theme of the book lately. It seems everywhere I look, I’m seeing the [...]

By Greg Primm Like many of you, I’ve been sucked into the vortex of social networking. Facebook, Twitter, Friend Feed, LinkedIn — I’m on all of them. In fact, just click on these links to connect with me: Twitter, Facebook, FriendFeed. I rarely notice the ads on Facebook, but for some reason the one to [...]

It’s the box with the door on top where the scary-looking clown pops out after you turn the handle (just for fun, check out the video here). I remember watching my daughters [...]

By Greg Primm For the third year in a row, my family dragged me, kicking and screaming, to a small camp that our church puts on each Memorial Day for kindergaren, 1st, and 2nd graders and their families. Each year, I try to weasel my way out of it. I make every excuse in the [...]

By Greg Primm It usually happens a couple of times per week: I ask my oldest daughter, Allison, to do something and she says – “ok”. Several minutes go by, but she doesn’t move. So I ask her again, using my DAD voice — stern but not angry. Another “ok”, but still no movement. Finally, [...]
