Those Ballards!

Have you ever noticed that time seems to function differently in blogdom? For instance, sometimes bloggers seem to take ages between posts; other times, posts or comments are made as fast as IM chats. Here's another case in point.

A few days ago, I listed Besty as a person I'd like to see get a comment system. Now, not only does she have Sensus Plenior, her husband Daniel is blogging too!

We all met years ago at the ultimate Christian Reconstruction Movement student conference, the Life Preparation Conference in Atlanta. LPC was sponsored by American Vision during three summers in the early 90s. Featured speakers included Gary North, Greg Bahnsen, and Howard Phillips. (For those of you who know about the Christian Worldview Student Conference in Virginia, LPC was the precursor to CWSC.)

A few years later, I spent a wonderful summer around Daniel & Betsy (just before they were married) at Twin Lakes in Florence, MS, where Daniel was Camp Director at the time. After his time at Twin Lakes, Daniel served as the founding headmaster of a classical Christian school in Jackson, MS. Most recently, I saw the Ballards when they visited the Moscow-Pullman area to check out Washington State University's graduate program in agricultural science. However, before they could move to the Northwest, they were called to Desire Street Ministries in New Orleans, where they are currently working with Desire Street Academy.

And now they have arrived in blogdom in full force. Who knows where those Ballards will end up next?
