Christianity: The Road Less Traveled

Christianity: The Road Less Traveled

When you are in youth ministry you have to be very careful what you say.  Cause it will come back to haunt you for a long time.  One evening at youth group I jokingly told the kids if they got stuck on their tests to just answer “Jesus”, [...]

What I want to see in iOS5

By filsinger On May 25, 2011 · 1 Comment

It’s been over 4 years since the original iPhone was announced and we have seen the device take huge leaps and bounds in terms of hardware, but the operating system hasn’t advanced itself quite as quickly. Many of the features and feel of the device are really beginning to show their age. Where Android used the iOS as a standard for much of their first release, I think it is time that Apple takes some of Android’s best features. I really hope at WWDC this June we see some big advances in the iOS. It needs some of my suggestions and more to keep up with the development speed of Android. That being said, Honeycomb also has a long way to go if it wants to even be close to the iPad experience, but that is a topic for another article. In no particular order here are the 8 things I’d like to see added in with iOS5.

Donald Miller’s A Million Miles

By filsinger On March 7, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Donald Miller wrote one of my all time favourite “Christian” Books, Blue Like Jazz that told an self autobiographical story about man searching for God in the midst of his life. It is definitely worth the read, and a book I’d recommend to pretty much anyone. I’ve also heard him speak about his FatherHood movement [...]

Fear, Apathy and Faith

By filsinger On March 6, 2011 · Leave a Comment

Each mission trip I have gone on has shape and formed who I am today. My first trip was to Cambellton, New Brunswick at the age of 12. I went with a group called Kings Kids to sing songs, dance and do work bee at churches. Then at the age of 18 I spent 2 [...]

Game Dev Story Tips

By filsinger On January 8, 2011 · Leave a Comment

A couple months ago a little game hit the app store that went by the name “Game Dev Story”.  It took the well known formula of the classic management game and slapped on a video game parody coating.  This game did very well on the iPhone and has been in the top grossing iPhone games [...]

Top 3 of 2010: My Favourite Things

By filsinger On January 4, 2011 · 2 Comments

I’ve made it an annual tradition to write what my favourite things of the year are in a blog post. My blogging hit a serious downtown this year as I got too busy with having a kid, and changing jobs at my company. I plan to rectify that this year and blog at least once a month, and hopefully twice a month if I get the time. I’m excited for this year, but it’s fun looking back. Here are my favourite things of this past year.

Country and Western Sunday

By filsinger On July 23, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Nope, this is about the themed service that crosses the boundaries of time, space, evolution and every good Christian topic in an attempt to outreach to that awesome guitar player that everyone was hoping would join the worship team, or for those neighbours that live next to the church building that you seem to have forgotten existed the other 25 Sundays on the calendar.

Old Spice: Finally a brand that understands social media.

By filsinger On July 14, 2010 · 1 Comment

A couple months ago my wife and I were sitting on the couch watching some TV and saw one of the funniest commercials ever.  Old Spice had created this absurd over the top manly character that basically just spouted random words while selling manliness and body wash.  They succeeded in creating a great spokesperson that [...]

Book Review: Stuff Christians Like (dotnet)

By filsinger On April 12, 2010 · Leave a Comment

You know that feeling you get when you are on the inside of an ‘inside joke’.  You know those stupid references to situations that happened on some road trip or outing with friends.  Usually it’s just a stupid word or catch phrase that outside of its context makes absolutely zero sense, but people who were [...]
