Charlie Wear's Notes

  • A $1 Car Wash…

    Some of you may know that I was up to my eyeballs in the outward-focused, servant evangelism ministry over the past couple of years. One of the things I like about this stuff is that when we decide to make our selves available to serve others, God shows up and… Listen ⇢

  • Weird weather…

    Last Thursday weird weather struck in my "hometown," Moreno Valley. When I started home from work I didn’t know that two tornadoes had touched down. One of them blew a tractor-trailer over and derailed a train. It touched down about 5 miles from my backyard. We also had hail the… Listen ⇢

  • The Shack…

    I finished reading William Young’s, The Shack, yesterday. All I can say is, "Wow." This is one of those books that will make you laugh and cry and think really hard. We published a review and an interview on Next-Wave in October 2007, but I didn’t get around to getting… Listen ⇢

  • Time-shifting

    Tivo, DVR, hulu.com, these are the agents of quantum cultural change. Since the 1950s, “prime-time” has meant the hours between 8 p.m. and 11 p.m. (or 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. depending on your US Time Zone) when television networks offer their best programming and sell time to their best… Listen ⇢
