Promise
Keepers*The Official Promise Keepers Home Page - Official site for information about this movement of evangelical Christian men.

*The MK Home Page - A place for all kinds of information (and recreation) for Missionary Kids.

*Maranatha Christian Journal - News, movie reviews, devotions, homeschool information and fun pages. They also have some good E-mail newsletters you can sign up for.

Responsibility in Free Speech*Responsibility in Free Speech - You may have seen blue ribbons proclaiming "Free Speech Online" on many web pages in protest of the Communications Decency Act. No doubt in response to this, Zondervan, a Christian publishing company, has started a green ribbon campaign in support of all types of responsible free speech. You can't yell "Fire" in a crowded theater if there isn't a fire, and that doesn't infringe on free speech rights. Most of us, however, refrain from that form of speech not because it's against the law, but because we are exercising responsible free speech. Zondervan thinks (as do I) that this same idea of responsibility, if it's good for the "real" world (and it is), ought to be just as good for the online world. They are not calling for laws, but for personal responsibility and awareness of the words we say. In their words, "the true right of free speech is accurately carried out when self-restraint is responsibly exercised". They'll even send you a free Green Ribbon button!

*Stars! - A well-designed strategy game for Windows 3.1 or Windows 95/98 that can be played against the computer, or against humans on a network, by E-mail or just swapping disks around.  Susan and I enjoy it.  Keep an eye out for the sequel, "Stars Supernova Genesis".
