The mission of the church during apostasy

Skilled Workman Posted on October 6, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

The mission of the church during apostasy. Things have gotten much worse during the nearly ten years since I wrote this post. Let’s get one thing straight, I am not a fan of the organizations I see. My experiences with the church organizations of the 21st century are not good, and I expect them to get worse. [Ed: though we finally found one In Rochester, NY in 2019.] Back in 2011, I had just heard about the … Continue reading →

Ben Stein says what’s needed to be said

Skilled Workman Posted on September 17, 2011 by David BergslandSeptember 17, 2011

I received this in an email from a friend today I strongly agree with his statement. As an American you are free to have your own religion. However, I am very tired of the humanist/atheist minority dictating our national religion. The separation of religion means that we should not have an official state religion and I’m afraid we have one. It’s humanism—the foolish belief that we can figure it out and fix our own problems. That’s absurd. … Continue reading →

Why I switched back to Fontographer 5.1

Skilled Workman Posted on September 13, 2011 by David BergslandSeptember 13, 2011

Personally, I started in Fontographer in the early 1990s and gradually built a little sideline of designing fonts. They were selling a little on Myfonts.When OpenType became viable with the release of InDesign I needed to find something else. My old version of Fontographer would not run in Mac OSX very well. Thomas Phinney, then of Adobe, told me I had no option but to go to FontLab. This transformed my career. I learned how to write … Continue reading →

Writing books in InDesign

Skilled Workman Posted on June 29, 2011 by David BergslandJuly 26, 2024

Here I am again recommending a road less traveled by—not unusual in my life and work. Before the choruses rise up in defense of others, let me tell you my reasonings. I fully recognize that most people write in Word. What they do not realize [in most cases] is this simple fact starts their book under a great handicap. They are missing out on the best tools for communicating with readers. At this point, I have been … Continue reading →

How ugly was Jesus ?

Skilled Workman Posted on June 26, 2011 by David BergslandMarch 23, 2020

How ugly was Jesus ? Of course I can say that! The Bible says it. When was the last time you considered it? Jesus was ugly or worse. Let’s look at the relevant scriptures. How ugly was Jesus ? Just as there were many who were appalled at him— his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of any human being and his form marred beyond human likeness— [Isaiah 52:14 NIV] Oh, but that was just on the … Continue reading →

Dad’s the One to Like in Social Media, Gaming, Entertainment | News – Advertising Age. “Dads, even more than moms, believe they’re spending more time with their kids these days than their parents did.

What Harold Camping Got Right

Skilled Workman Posted on May 27, 2011 by David BergslandMay 27, 2011

What Harold Camping Got Right. This is a very interesting article by Phil Cooke in Charisma, but I think Cooke missed the real point. Nothing reaches this level of attention without spiritual power. So, the question becomes, what is the power behind the ad campaign for the end of the world [that didn’t happen]? Is God behind it? Before you dismiss this thought entirely, it might be the power of God—at least in part. If we read … Continue reading →

Shaken for the anointing

Skilled Workman Posted on May 24, 2011 by David BergslandMay 24, 2011

http://media.voe.org/Manna_fest/2231161 Perry Stones actually preached on Manna Fest this week. You need to listen to this. His position is that the shaking of the church is necessary for a fresh anointing. It sure lines up with what Pat & I have been experiencing.
