Stuff

Stuff: We’re almost halfway through the series “Revealed” at CrossWay. It’s going well, but I wish I had another two or three months to prepare for it! Guess I’ll always feel that way. Sermons are like paintings–it’s hard to reach a point where I can say, “It’s finished.” Laura Marie is eating “solid” food! Doesn’t Continue reading

Coaching…But At What Cost?

The apostle Paul was imprisoned in a dungeon a short time before he was to be executed. He sat down to write one last letter. He’d written many letters to many churches and individuals over his long ministry. This final letter was written to Timothy, a younger man that Paul had coached as Timothy began Continue reading

New

Today marks the start of a new year: preschool begins at the Training Station and Carolyn starts her new teaching job. She’s teaching three-year-olds three afternoons a week.

Baby: The First Dozen Days

Laura Marie turned12 days old last evening. Some thoughts from the past couple weeks: When Carolyn was in the throes of childbirth, at one point she stuck out her bottom lip. She does this when she’s sad or hurt. A moment later the baby came out and started crying, and she stuck out her lower Continue reading

When Perspectives…and Cars…Collide

Last night I got a lesson in perspective. While I was on my way to the volunteer training class at the Eastern Shore Pregnancy Center, I got into a minor accident when I was just a couple minutes away from the center. Obviously, it stunk. The car has some damage that needs to be fixed. Continue reading

Rain

If you stop and think about it, it’s kind of weird how sometimes a whole bunch of water falls out of the sky. Not only that, but it’s also weird how we have an entire industry based on trying to figure out when it’s going to happen. Continue reading

About Me

Hey, I’m Nathan Hyde. My wife and I, who are both teachers, have been married for most of this century and have one daughter. Things I enjoy doing are spending time with family and students, studying the Bible, reading great books, visiting new places, walking my dog, and sitting in my recliner doing absolutely nothing. Favorite Bible verses are Joshua 1:9 and Leviticus 13:40.
