"It is a pity that we know so much about Christ, and yet enjoy Him so little."

Okay, so Merry Christmas.

Those of you who've been asking and emailing, your patience is rewarded. I guess.
:-)

I am happy to say that Element's web/tech/audio wizard succeeded in uploading the complete Element message catalog over the holiday weekend. Everything is all caught up. The entire Old School Jesus series is there. All of the Kill Your Idols series. And the current Exodus series up through last Sunday.
You can listen to or download messages delivered by yours truly at the Element podcasts page.
(They are also available for subscription via iTunes and various other podcasting sites.)

Some are better than others (and I am thankful we have left off the first message series, on Philippians, as it marked my return to public speaking after a ten year absence and definitely showed). The remainder available won't exactly blow your barn door off, but I do think they demonstrate a trajectory of improvement, and for the most part, I am satisfied not with my oratory skill, but with being able to preach Jesus unabated.

If I could recommend one, it would be the message from this past weekend: A Hard Life, part four in the Exodus series.

Hope you may profit from them. Sorry for the long wait.

UPDATE:
iTunes glitch fixed. There are two Element podcasts listed. Subscribe to the one with "Christianity" listed in the category. All the podcasts back to the full Jesus series are there. Disregard any odd timeframes (a couple might say the messages are only a minute long). The complete messages are there. Refresh if you need to. Sorry about that!

Cool!

I've updated the RodCasts! section in the left navbar.

Also - you need to have your web guy (or maybe you can do this) categorize the second message in the Old School Jesus series as "Old School Jesus", so it will be part of the group of messages that come up when that link is clicked.

Fixed!
Thanks, Bill.

I'll be working on getting the iPod set for this!

It appears they aren't available through iTunes. Most recent one is Old School Jesus - Jesus the Shepherd released on April23rd. When I try to update on iTunes I get a message saying:

The was a problem downloading "Element". And internal server error occured.

Please check that the URL is correct and the connection to the network is active and try again.

Yeah, my bro hipped me to that glitch today also.

I will forward this to the dude in charge, but he just went out of town on business today, and after spending the weekend getting everything engineered and uploaded, I am hesitant to request its immediate attention.

I understand the convenience of subscriptions; I subscribe to several podcasts myself. But for the time being, all of them are available for download on the Element podcasts page.
Sorry!
