For the back story, <a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2015/08/this-may-engineers-with-mission-em.html" target="_blank">see my older post</a>. <br />
<br />
If you recall, or even if you don't, we launched a network of five family businesses in small villages around the area of Ferrier, in north east Haiti. See the map below. Of the four I was able to visit, all were in good working order but have had different levels of financial success. Read on to find out why!<br />

<b><u>Business #1: Merande</u></b></div>
The first business we visited was the closest to Ferrier: Merande. It's at the home of a man called Lele, like a ukelele without the uke. He is a gregarious man about my age. Talking to him tends to put me in a good mood because he's so welcoming and charming.When he saw me he said "mwen kontan we ou!" which literally means "I content see you". I told him I was happy to see him too and he just laughed! I guess he thinks it's funny that I try to speak Kreyol.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lele had painted a sign outside his door advertising his business. He references Psalm 23 in French which I believe says "The Lord is my burger" or something like that. I don't speak French.</div>

Despite the good working order of the equipment and the compelling signage advertising the business, he isn't making much money. Since our installation 18 months ago, the national electric grid has been extended to parts of Merande. Some homes have been officially connected to the grid, and many others have made unofficial (illegal) connections to it! It's hard to sell something everyone is getting for free! </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Next, we drove on to Latasse. The roads were very muddy so we had to park and walk the last 20 minutes or so. Once we arrived we found a similar situation. Pierre was happy to see me, the equipment was working well, but business had slowed. The grid hadn't been extended out that far, however, so what was the source of the competition? </div>

[pole-mounted solar panel, and two smaller solar panels from another Mission Waco program, see red circles]</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Pierre had raised the solar panel on a pole to get it up out of the shade. That seemed to be working well although it makes rain the only source of cleaning. But a more significant problem were the smaller solar panels such as those shown on the right. Through another project with Mission Waco, a large number of these panels had been made available in Ferrier. Apparently, some of them have found their way to Latasse and are now providing a new form of competition for the cell phone charging businesses. They are not as powerful, but they are capable of charging one phone at a time. This is a second type of competition that didn't exist when we installed these systems!</div>

<u><b>Business #3: Filibert</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Moving on to Filibert, we found the same thing. Happy people, functioning equipment, and new competition. Although they were making good income from the business (about $1/day) they said it was down some. They said something about the Digicel tower further down the road, but I didn't understand.</div>

Driving a bit further down the road, however, we came to a new cellular antenna tower. Digicel is a major cellular telephone company in the Caribbean and Central America and their new tower had its own large array of solar panels since there isn't any other source of electricity out there. To keep people from stealing the solar panels they surrounded them with a concrete wall topped with razor wire and hired a security guard. We spoke with a woman nearby who told us the security guard was running his own cell phone charging business with the electricity from the tower! Unbelievable. She also had a power cord stretched through the razor wire to power her house. Not immediately understanding why there was a power cord, I asked my translator, Guy, to inquire about it. He understood she was stealing power and didn't want to cause trouble by asking about it. He wisely put me off until such time that he could explain it to me discretely. Maybe he was afraid the woman would beat me up if she thought I was from Digicel corporate headquarters or something.</div>

<u><b>Business #4: Meillac</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Moving on to Meillac and our most successful business, we came to Sonja's house. From the beginning of this project she seemed to be the most aggressive businessperson, the most sure she could make a profit, and the most remote. These attributes are working well for her.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As we pulled up to her house, another woman was just leaving with her newly charged cell phone. Sonja invited us in and told us that she was making $2 or $3 a day with her business - easily double what we had hoped and budgeted! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As she was 18 months ago, she still avoided eye contact and seemed to be uncomfortable talking to me (I have that gift with women) but she answered our questions. In the pictures you can see that she is charging some of the batteries directly. That is, she has taken the battery out of the phone, presumably because she didn't have the correct adapters for the various types of phones, and has modified chargers by cutting off the phone connector and attaching the wires directly to the battery terminals. Ingenuity!</div>

<u><b>Business #5: La Garene</b></u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We didn't have time to make the circuitous trip to La Garene. It takes 30 minutes to walk there from Ferrier (on footpaths) but nearer to an hour to drive there (on rough roads). Because of its proximity to Latasse, my guess is that they would be in a similar condition.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>So where are we?</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What did we learn from this visit? We learned that our engineering was pretty good: the electronics, panels, batteries, etc., have held up well. We also learned that the owners still seem to like them and use them. We also saw examples of how much ingenuity can be found among people in severe poverty. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
But most importantly, we learned why some of the businesses aren't making as much money as we expected. There are three new types of competition that did not exist when we installed the systems in May 2015:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1) extensions of the national grid which brought electricity to more homes through both legal and illegal connections - we can't really complain about this since any type of electrification diminishes poverty in a multitude of ways</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2) small solar panels flooding the region from another, different poverty abatement project are also taking away business in some areas - while this is good for the region as a whole, it's not so good for our businesses</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3) unsanctioned businesses operated by the security guard of another power source (Digicel).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><u>And where do we go from here?</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So what we need to do is identify new revenue streams (that's fancy business speak for ways to make money) that our businesses can harness in ways the competition cannot. If the small solar panels can't produce as much power, what services could we provide that use more power than that competition can provide? How about a "cinema" that shows movies on a television? How about a barber shop that uses electric trimmers? How about a refrigerator that makes ice or cools soft drinks? Help us think of other businesses - leave it in the comments!</div>

Those of you that read my blog regularly (ahem, Mom) know that I have had the personal delight and professional privilege of taking engineering students abroad for the last decade. Most of the service-learning projects we have worked on have been small scale renewable <i>energy </i>projects that involved solar- or hydro-generated electricity. But in addition to electricity, these trips have allowed me to get a taste - pun intended - of working on <i>water </i>projects too. Ba dump bump!</div>

So over the last year or two, I have read a few books on water well drilling, aquifers, water treatment techniques, and even the issues of justice associated with water access. I began raising money to buy a water well drilling rig, and was grateful to receive a Baylor University Missions Research Grant to bring my coffers up to the $20,000 required. I couple of months ago I ordered one, and today I was able to bring this new drilling rig out to a friend's house to drill a practice well. Five students and I spent the morning and afternoon assembling the rig, leveling the ground, and drinking coffee - not necessarily in that order. </div>

My goal is to learn the process of using it to drill boreholes in areas with water access problems. This practice well is for a buddy's large garden, but the next one will be for a colonia outside of Laredo, Texas. A group of engineering students and faculty are planning to go there this July to drill a well for a community garden. At present, the colonia has to bring in water with trucks. Because water is harder to access, gardening isn't being done, and other sources of food are far away; it's a true food desert. We hope this well will help the community grow more fresh vegetables and brew more coffee - not necessarily in that order.<br />

I have been taking undergraduate engineering students abroad for a decade. Together, we have traveled to Kenya, Honduras, and Haiti doing renewable energy projects of various kinds, and I have spent over six months of my life living alongside students on these trips. I love it. We are together 24/7, we eat all our meals together, we work together, we sing and pray together, and we share our lives with each other. Sometimes we have emergencies together - and I take them to hospitals, hold their vomit bags, or remove snakes from the premises! We talk about global poverty, the meaning of justice, and how to come to grips with our own wealth. These times together help us grow close, and the relationships I form with students on these trips keep me coming back year after year. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These experiences living alongside students have been rewarding, but now, I am taking it to the next level. I am grateful and humbled to announce that I have been selected to be the next Faculty Master of <a href="http://www.baylor.edu/trc" target="_blank">Teal Residential College</a> at Baylor University! I am beside myself with excitement. What does this mean? It means I'm so excited I have split in two.<br />
<br />
No, it means that Martha and I are moving into the dorms, baby! Teal Residential College is home to about 350 undergraduates, most of whom are engineering, computer science, or nursing majors. It has a large apartment for the Faculty Master that we will move into this summer. We will be involved in all kinds of student activities and will host students in our apartment frequently.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
[Teal Residential College at night]</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
We're not supposed to use the word "dorm" anymore. Instead, Teal is a Residential College. The Teal FAQ webpage says:</div>
<div>
"<i>Residential Colleges are designed to provide a culture that fosters academic excellence, intensive faculty-student interaction and a rich culture steeped in Baylor tradition. Life in a Residential College is led by the Faculty Master, a faculty member who resides on campus, living among the students.</i>"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Interestingly, the title "Faculty Master" is a traditional title that goes back to the Oxford-Cambridge models for residential colleges, but has been criticized lately in the United States because of the association of the word "master" with slavery. In fact, Harvard University recently <a href="http://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/after-debate-harvard-university-will-no-longer-use-term-house-n525576" target="_blank">changed the title</a> of their "House Masters" to "Faculty Deans" because of this association. I have to say, one thing I am genuinely uncomfortable with is the title. "Faculty Master" not only has slavery connotations, it has dominance and control connotations that make me cringe a little. I have been thinking about alternative titles: <i>Faculty Mascot</i>, <i>Redneck-in-Residence</i>, <i>Only A Master of Evil Darth</i> - which is your favorite?</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
One of my favorite titles for Christ is Emmanuel. It means "God with us". To me, it conveys love and compassion and initiative on God's part. The incarnation: God choosing to become like us in order to relate to us, reconcile with us, love us. That's what I want to do at Teal. Maybe a good title would be <i>Faculty With Us</i>.</div>

My dad grew up in the small town of Ralls, Texas – a farming
town near Lubbock. At the age of three his parents brought home his baby
sister, Francine. Dad “celebrated” by
gathering the chicken’s eggs and smashing them against the concrete cattle
trough. At a very young age he decided to do some “work” on the family car. He
loosened the lug nuts on one of the wheels – which later came off! He liked to play with his bow and arrow,
shooting arrows straight up in the air and running to get out of the way! Once day he and Francine were playing in the
sandbox. There was a wooden shade above the sand and dad was on top of it with
his bow and arrow. He yelled down through a knothole in the wood “Francine,
watch out, I’m going to shoot an arrow through the hole”. She looked up through the hole and said
“what?” just as he let the arrow loose. She was not seriously injured. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As a child he developed polio. Though it was a
non-paralyzing form of the disease, he still lost the ability to walk for a
season and had to learn all over again, starting by crawling like a baby. I wonder, sometimes, if his childhood polio
predisposed him to another neuromuscular disease, Parkinson’s, that eventually
took his life.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In high school he raised pigs with 4H Club. His mama pig’s name was Eudora. I’m glad he got that out of his system before
he named me. He worked as a janitor at
the post office and on the farm during summers – moving 30 foot lengths of
irrigation pipe in the mud to water the cotton.
He managed to make enough money to buy a new car that he took to
college.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dad went to Texas Tech University and took all the classes
in computers that they offered. He learned how to program with punch cards,
played coronet in the marching band, and worked in the chow hall. He graduated
in 1965 with a math degree and moved to Houston to work for Texaco as a FORTRAN
programmer. He worked his entire career
at Texaco – 38 years – in various computer-oriented roles.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I was born in 1967. Although my mom and dad divorced and
both remarried, they remained friends – living only two blocks from each
other. After my step father’s death in
2008, Dad, Loretta, and my mom would occasionally go eat Mexican food together
and enjoy each other’s company. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Memories that stand out to me from my childhood are going
camping with him and spending a lot of time playing Monopoly. Dad had an
antique Monopoly board and had played games against himself as a kid. He
memorized the rents for the various properties – he always won. He loved camping and saw the fingerprints of
God in creation. We had a pop-up camper.
Once it fell off the trailer hitch and dad instinctively hit the breaks – but
then the camper rolled into the back of the car!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He was the Cubmaster of my Cub Scout Pack, and the leader of
our Webelos group. He helped me build a large wooden fence for a Boy Scout
project. He taught me to drive a stick
shift in a Toyota Supra with louvers on the hatchback. In high school I got my
first speeding ticket in that car – though I’m not sure I ever told him about
that.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the early 80s he bought an Apple IIe home computer. He
and I spent a lot of time with it. He taught me how to write computer programs
and we created a simple game that allowed you to drive a tank and shoot a
little cannon. I remember having a
conversation with him about binary and hexadecimal number systems. It wasn’t
until I got to college that I realized that not every kid had these types of
experiences.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sometimes I tell my own students a story about my dad. I tell them how I made a D in 9<sup>th</sup>
grade Algebra, and that I had to sit down with him every night to do my Algebra
homework so that I could bring up my grade. He realized that one of my problems
was trying to skip too many steps and he told me not to be lazy, but to write
out every step of the equations we were solving. And of course, it worked. I coach
my own students the same way today.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
[This is my favorite picture of my dad and I. It was taken around 2001.]</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dad was always open and honest with me about his faith. He
wasn’t afraid to say that he didn’t know the answer to a question, though he
usually did. He had had a faith struggle of his own as a teenager that was born
out of a doctrinal split in his family: his father attended the Church of
Christ, but his mother attended First United Methodist. He later embraced the
Baptist tradition, and he and I were both baptized by emersion on the same day
in this room, in fact. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dad took part in Bible Study Fellowship for many years, and
because of his enthusiasm about the things he was learning, I also did BSF as a
young adult. He was also a long time
member of a Men’s Bible Study that met at 6:00 AM – some of his best friendships
were made with that group. He
participated in Evangelism Explosion training here at FBC, and then he really
seemed to find his ministerial calling in Stephen Ministries.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For about 10 years, starting in 2002, he and Loretta both
served in this way. For those of you who don’t know much about Stephen
Ministries, it’s a one-on-one ministry that pairs folks like my dad with people
who are struggling in one way or another – maybe in their health, or with
grief, or because of divorce, or a loss of a job – it can be anything. Stephen
Ministers don’t have to be an expert in all these ways that people can suffer,
because their main job is to listen. Dad
met weekly with men and just listened to them, offering encouragement without
agenda or bias. He became their true
friend and confidant. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This ministry was a great fit for his gifts and talents,
because dad was always a slow talker anyway. People with faster mouths might
actually be less well suited for this type of ministry. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know he would want to encourage you all to find a way to
use your own gifts and talents to love your neighbor as yourself.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I would like to end with a quote from C.S. Lewis. In recent years, every time
I have read it I thought of dad and his struggle with Parkinson’s – and I usually
wept.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
"But if you are a poor creature--poisoned by a wretched
up-bringing in some house full of vulgar jealousies and senseless
quarrels--saddled, by no choice of your own, with some loathsome sexual
perversion--nagged day in and day out by an inferiority complex that makes you
snap at your best friends--do not despair. He knows all about it. You are one
of the poor whom He blessed. He
knows what a wretched machine you are trying to drive. Keep on. Do what
you can. One day He will fling it on the scrap-heap and give you a new one. And
then you may astonish us all - not least yourself."<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Thank you for being here in honor of my dad and in support
of our family.<o:p></o:p></div>

Three things happened that punctuated my day with excessive exclamation points and weeping-for-joy emojis. Three brief surprises burst forth from the surface of a day, otherwise characterized as "pretty good," like three blue whales breaching the surface of the ocean, showing me their bellies and yelling in whale language, "we love youuuuuuu!"<br />
<br />
It all started like this: I got up early (for a Sunday) and met a few hundred other folks for the Mission Waco Walk for the Homeless event at 8:00 AM. It was a walking tour to visit several of the organizations around town that provide services to homeless folks. It was part advocacy, part education, part cardio. As the crowd walked from the shelter to the food bank to the veterans services building and so on, a delightful group of bikers blocked traffic for us like motorcycle cops at a funeral. They did a great job keeping us from being run over by early service Episcopalians.<br />
<br />
Then I noticed that one of the bikers was my friend Paul who has a cool beard and a pony tail and plays bass. Sometimes his band, <a href="http://www.tenth-leper.com/" target="_blank">The 10th Leper</a>, plays music at <a href="http://www.churchunderthebridge.org/" target="_blank">Church Under the Bridge</a>. All these things make Paul pretty cool in my book. But to top it all off like the whip on top of my low fat caramel macchiato - today I found out that he rides a Harley!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
He agreed to let me ride on the back of his bike for a few blocks and it was fun to ride in the open air on this beautiful morning in downtown Waco. Its engine grumbled "potato potato potato" noises like a panting dragon. Bucket list.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After rejoining the crowd I had the privilege of walking alongside Judge Ken Starr. He and his wife Alice were also participating in the Walk for the Homeless, though sadly he missed the sight of me on the hog. He was very interested to hear about what <a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2015/08/this-may-engineers-with-mission-em.html" target="_blank">Engineers with a Mission had been doing in Haiti</a> with <a href="http://www.justiceandmercy.engineering/" target="_blank">JAMES and Mission Waco</a>. He was particularly excited to hear about our new Humanitarian Engineering program at Baylor. He and Alice were so attentive and engaged, and their support means a lot to me. Towards the end of our conversation, he told me something very exciting! Unfortunately, I don't feel the liberty to put it on the internet!! So the second high point of my day will have to be redacted like Hillary's emails released by the State Department. He said <span style="background-color: black;">ahey! you think you're clever getting past my redactions</span><span style="background-color: black;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;"> and that </span><span style="background-color: black;">kkdk alk kdakkllkja aklsdfj</span><span style="background-color: white;">. What's that you say? Anticlimactic? All that buildup just to be redacted? Yes well, you're right, it is. What can you do?</span></div>

The third highlight came later that afternoon. For reasons you might not expect, I purchased a handgun. In fact, I bought my first ever firearm, a .357 magnum revolver. You see, ever since, like, three months ago when I started thinking about doing humanitarian work with water wells along the Texas/Mexico border, I have been thinking about snakes. In my search to buy a snake gun, I had the opportunity to fire a friend's .357 at night. In the darkness, it was easy to see the huge fireball shoot out of the barrel. And the sound was so loud that it literally made my ears ring. This induced in me some kind of testosterone power pose that normally only comes with watching Monday Night Football or using a large chainsaw. I was hooked after one shot like a junkie. </div>

So there it is: my three awesome things that happened today. I realize, looking back on them, that these things paint a picture of me. I'm afraid they make me look a bit like a redneck. Not that there's anything wrong with that (jk, I think there is) but in my case, it is simply not true. I refuse, in fact, to be defined by political stereotypes or other social expectations. I simultaneously care about social justice but also own a handgun. I frequently have the privilege to converse with both homeless people and university presidents. I like Harley Davidson motorcycles, but never plan to own one. I am pro-immigration, but also pro-rule of law. I am neither a libertarian nor a socialist. I do, however, speak whale.</div>

This May, <a href="http://www.baylorem.org/" target="_blank">Engineers with a Mission</a> (EM), <a href="http://www.baylor.edu/missions/" target="_blank">Baylor Missions</a>, and <a href="http://www.justiceandmercy.engineering/" target="_blank">Justice and Mercy Engineering Society, (JAMES)</a> brought
solar energy-based businesses to Ferrier, Haiti, one of the poorest areas of
the Western Hemisphere. <a href="http://www.missionwaco.org/" target="_blank">Mission Waco</a>, the parent organization for JAMES, has had a presence in Ferrier for over 30
years and this was the third annual trip to the area. The longstanding
relationships between Mission Waco and the Haitians there are the backbone for
the development work done in north-east Haiti. <o:p></o:p></div>

This year’s solar project was unique in that we had not one,
but five installation sites in the areas surrounding Ferrier. We placed five
250 Watt solar panels in the care of carefully selected impoverished families
to operate as cell phone charging businesses. These bless the families with a
source of income and stimulate the local economy. Although there is intermittent
electricity access in the larger town of Ferrier, the outlying towns of
Meillac, Filibert, Merande, Latasse, and La Garene have virtually zero
access. Cell phone owners must pay and
often travel to recharge their phone battery.<o:p></o:p></div>

Financial sustainability is an important goal for all our projects, even if we don't always achieve it. For this reason, we carefully chose to operate the solar
systems as microbusinesses. An association was formed between JAMES and the
five families, and a contract was signed. As part of their contract the
families must pay 45 Haitian Gourdes from their daily earnings (approximately 1
dollar U.S.) as a rental fee. This fee is placed into a savings account to be
used to cover future repairs and battery replacements. Borrowing an idea from
the micro credit industry, the families have group liability for these rental
fees – if someone can’t pay, the others are responsible for covering the fees. Ten weeks after launching these businesses, the rental fees have been 100% paid and
about 3200 cell phones have been charged!
Another part of their contract requires that they use the energy they
harvest to host gatherings for the community, whether it be setting out a light
for children to do school work, hosting church activities, or simply letting
the locals play dominoes at night.<o:p></o:p></div>

These families were not selected at random. Our friend
Zenas, a local pastor with a passion for serving the poor, chose these families
because they are Christian leaders in their community. These solar panels are a
tool for our Christian brothers and sisters to continue to bless their
community.<o:p></o:p><br />

This year we took a team of 16, 3 professors and 13
engineering students, forming our largest mission group yet. But our team was
even larger than this! Our Baylor students worked right alongside local
handymen, pastors, carpenters, guides, translators, and community members eager
to help. <o:p></o:p></div>

We intentionally seek out locals to be a part of our team
because it helps our team remain relationally grounded and helps further
develop the community. Hiring out
Haitians is a way to provide a source of income to families as well as affirm
their talents. One sweet example of this was when our guide and friend, Julio,
came to the aid of one of our electrical engineering students who was
struggling to eat a fresh coconut. He said, “Sarah, you may know electricity,
but <i>I</i> know coconuts,” and then began
to prepare the coconut. This story illustrates the interdependent relationships
we want to cultivate. It is important that when we go into communities
to tend to the physical ailments of poverty, that we do so in a spirit of
humility, by understanding our own limitations and respecting the abilities of
others. <o:p></o:p></div>

Our work in Haiti is about more than creating clean energy,
boosting the local economy, improving a family’s income, or exposing Baylor
students to poverty - all of these are good and part of our trip. But it's also about God’s love for justice, restoration, and
transformation in our hearts and the environment around us. I am thrilled to be a part of it!</div>

I laid in bed after midnight rearranging words in my mind, experimenting with the acronyms they formed like Thomas Edison and a thousand failed light bulbs. Then suddenly, one name made sense: the "Justice and Mercy Engineering Society" which had the acronym - can you believe it? - JAMES! You had to use the "and" to make the acronym work, which was a little bit of a stretch, but I knew it wasn't going to get any better. So I literally sprung out of bed and wrote it down, proving its existence to myself like snapshot of a Sasquatch before it disappeared back into the woods of my cluttered, sleepy mind.<br />

JAMES is the progression of my personal mission to equip service-minded engineers and to use what I have learned to serve the poor. I think it is my calling. (<a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2014/05/as-i-write-this-i-am-preparing-to-lead.html" target="_blank">See this post about callings, Iron Man, and Xanax.</a>) This mission has been evolved over the years, and has been embodied through extra-curricular, curricular, and now post-curricular
organizations which educate engineers in various capacities.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The extra-curricular organization is <a href="http://www.baylorem.org/" target="_blank">Engineers with a Mission</a> (EM) at Baylor University which I co-founded with students in 2004. EM
helps students discover how their technical education and interests can be used
for the Kingdom of God through annual service-learning trips to places like
Kenya, Honduras, Rwanda, and Haiti. There have been plenty of posts on this blog about our trips and projects. EM has grown steadily over the years but
remains an <i>extra</i>-curricular program. </div>

I happen to really like the millennial generation. As generations go, their sense of community, relationship, and service gives me a glimmer of hope for our collective futures. Sensing this growing interest in global, service-based
engineering over the last ten years, I spearheaded the creation of a Humanitarian Engineering
concentration at Baylor. This program provides a <i>curricular</i> outlet for students
to develop their interests in development or missions into a full-blown
career. It becomes official this fall, and we'll have our first graduates by May 2016. Students with this concentration will be well-suited for serving in a non-profit organization, supporting Christian missions, or working in the international development sector. But unlike students starting at Exxon, or Apple, or Boeing, students with vocations in this non-traditional field of Humanitarian Engineering may need some
help finding a job! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So almost three years ago, I gratefully accepted an offer
from the local non-profit Mission Waco Mission World (MWMW) to form "6:8 technologies" (which I later renamed JAMES) as a
program under their non-profit umbrella. <a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2012/11/68-technologies-new-direction.html" target="_blank">Here's an earlier post about that.</a><o:p></o:p><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
So what do we do? JAMES is a <i>post</i>-curricular effort to:<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1. Train engineers, technicians, and tinkerers to do solar projects as
ministry within their own spheres of influence</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2. Help
Humanitarian Engineers (degreed or not) to find employment through networking
and other resources<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
3. Use technology
to advocate for biblical justice <a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2015/04/biblical-justice-and-enik-sleestack.html" target="_blank">like Enik the sleestack philosopher</a>.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Even as a new organization, JAMES has a strong
infrastructure thanks to our parent organization MWMW. They have over 20 years of
experience operating as a well-respected non-profit and are recognized as a
Four Star Charity by Charity Navigator for maintaining the highest standards of
financial responsibility. Doing this four years in a row puts them in the top 7% of non-profit organizations!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But our partnership with MWMW is about more than just sound accounting
and advice, it is about our complementary missions. MWMW’s mission statement is
to “<i>Mobilize middle-class Americans to become more compassionately involved
among the poor [and to] seek ways to overcome the systemic issues of social
injustice which oppress the poor and marginalized.</i>” JAMES is an expression of
this mission. We aim to “mobilize” those in the engineering and related
professions “to do justice, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your
God” (Micah 6:8 ESV) by designing and implementing tangible renewable energy
and water projects.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
On our website you can find a series of video lessons
detailing how to design, size, and install a solar electricity system. The
videos are taught by me and use a high-speed animation of me drawing pictures on a whiteboard, low budget style. The website also has job-finding tools and other great content. Visit us
at <a href="http://www.justiceandmercy.engineering/">www.justiceandmercy.engineering</a>. We also tweet about job openings in the field, issues of
justice, and ministries that could use help @Waco_JAMES and on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SixEightTechnologies" target="_blank">our facebook</a>.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In support of these goals, we also offer consulting services. Let's say your group is supporting an orphanage in Guatemala that needs help with solar panels. We could do any of the following:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
a) train your personnel to design and install themselves, with online and/or hands-on training</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
b) do feasibility studies, design the system, provide cost estimates, etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
c) send an engineering student or myself to do the installation with your team</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
d) any combination of the above.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Keep us in mind when you or your group is doing any energy-related work abroad, we would love to work with you! Together let's work for God's kingdom to come on earth as it is in heaven.</div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">When the Haiti Engineering Team first
embarked on our mission, I was bursting with the infectious excitement, enthusiasm,
and anticipation that my teammates and team leaders had inspired. The goal of our mission trip was to create
and install five (5) solar-powered electricity systems that could be used to power
microbusinesses for charging telephones and providing a small light source to
rural villages with no access to electricity.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Our adventure began in Puerto Plata,
Dominican Republic, where we spent our first days gathering supplies, building
mechanical solar panel frames, and testing electrical equipment. On May 20, we continued our journey, crossing
the Dominican Republic-Haiti border at Dajabon, DR. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">My excitement and hope was quickly
replaced with fear and dismay. The
border crossing overloaded my senses. People
everywhere shouted for attention; children begged; porters forcefully offered
their services; and border officials expected bribes. The sun beat down mercilessly upon us,
rotting trash that lined the streets and creating an unpleasant stench. It was my first glimpse of true poverty and I
recoiled in fear. The stares of the
local people made it clear that they saw us not as fellow humans, but rather as
outsiders with money. This made me cautious
and uncomfortable and I reciprocated…I began to perceive them as poor people--peasants
who would take advantage of me in an unwary moment. Fortunately something happened to ensure this
perception would not last.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">When children came to beg us for money,
my team leader picked up some pebbles and offered them to the children as a
trade. The children simply laughed at
him, but it was enough to break the barrier…it was enough to make us all human
again. Before long, the children at the
border were playing games with us, teaching us some Spanish, and learning small
bits of English. For a moment, our
divisions and distinctions melted away.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Eventually, we moved through the border
crossing and onto our final destination of Ferrier, Haiti. Yet, that border experience was never far
from my mind. For me, it was an
awakening…I had begun to understand the real tragedy of poverty.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Poverty is not a tragedy because people
don’t have access to clean water, medical resources, housing, or adequate food—although
these things are tragic in and of themselves.
They are the injustices of poverty.
The true tragedy of poverty is that it dehumanizes people. Instead of seeing <i>people</i> who are afflicted with poor living conditions, we only see
“the poor” or “the homeless” or “the hungry”, as if their condition is the only
descriptor they merit. Genesis 1:27 says, “So God created mankind in His own
image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created
them.” If we are all created in the
image of God, then we all deserve to be treated with the same dignity and
respect, no matter our living conditions.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Somewhere along the way I had forgotten
that. In my desire to bring my own
talents and resources to the aid of the Haitian people, I had reduced them to
little more than a project—a problem for which I held a solution. In doing so, I lost my own humanity. For if I were stripped of those talents and
resources, would I not then simply become a project myself?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">For the rest of the trip, I took it upon
myself to be the trip photographer, amongst other tasks. I took photos of Haitians and BU students
working side by side. We had engineering
talents and resources that the Haitian people did not have, but they had
community and labor resources that we could not have provided. The Haitian and BU communities drew together
to shine <i>our</i> light, the light of Christ,
so that all could see and give glory to our Father in heaven. In these photos, I did not see poor people. I
saw people of strength, courage, wisdom, community, joy, faith, hope, and love. I saw God.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="background: white; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">“Our
deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are
powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens
us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?'
Actually, who are you <b><i>not</i></b> to be any of these things? <b>You are a child of God.</b> Your playing
small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so
that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as
children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light
shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are
liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”<span class="apple-converted-space"> <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
</div>
<br />
<br />
A little over <b>two years</b> ago I wrote a post called "<a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2012/03/whats-all-this-justice-stuff-anyway.html" target="_blank">What's all this 'Justice' stuff anyway?</a>" about my growing and changing understanding of biblical justice. In that post, I promised to write more about my journey within the week. But of course, I haven't written any.<br />
<br />
So you are probably thinking that I am a promise breaker at best, and a bold faced liar at worst. But give me a break because I have been trapped in The Land of The Lost alongside Enik the sleestack philosopher. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://www.bookmice.net/darkchilde/lost/land20/9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.bookmice.net/darkchilde/lost/land20/9.jpg" height="425" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
[Enik waxes philosophical about his crystals and pylons. Live long and prosper, Enik.]</div>
<br />
During my time with Enik, I read a book by Ken Wytsma called "Pursuing Justice". He has a concise explanation of justice: <i>truth is what is, justice is what ought to be</i>.<br />
<br />
Of course, if you are one of the poor souls that has been lulled into believing that there is no such thing as <i>ought</i>, then this explanation is meaningless. But a post about relativism is for another day. Presuming we can agree that there is such a thing as <i>ought</i>, how can we know what it is?<br />
<br />
If we are talking about biblical justice, then we have to consider two Hebrew terms: mishpat and tzadequa. In his excellent <a href="http://www.relevantmagazine.com/god/practical-faith/what-biblical-justice" target="_blank">article</a> in Relevant magazine, Tim Kellar explains these terms well.<br />
<br />
<i>"These two words roughly correspond to what some have called 'primary' and 'rectifying justice.' Rectifying justice is mishpat. It means punishing wrongdoers and caring for the victims of unjust treatment. Primary justice, or tzadeqah, is behavior that, if it was prevalent in the world, would render rectifying justice unnecessary, because everyone would be living in right relationship to everyone else. Therefore, though tzadeqah is primarily about being in a right relationship with God, the righteous life that results is profoundly social."</i><br />
<br />
Growing up in Texas as a white Baptist Republican male, the only type of justice I had ever heard of was the kind described by the mishpat, or rectifying justice. In other words, my understanding of justice was when criminals get what they deserve. When and if the criminal justice system doesn't work right, which was very seldom, then justice had to be dealt by superheroes or vigilantes, but ultimately, my understanding of justice was about proper punishment and retribution. Anyone who disagreed was probably a socialist in disguise. Pinkos!<br />
<br />
But a biblical understanding of justice has to start with a biblical understanding of what <i>ought </i>to be. This takes us to the doctrine of the fall. Specifically, when man first sinned, he broke everything. It was cosmic in scope. Not only was man's relationship to God marred, but so was his relationship to the environment, his relationship to other people, and even his relationship to himself.<br />
<br />
Here's something that escaped me along my journey, that systems can be broken too. Economic systems, political systems, educational systems - all of these are made by broken people and are, themselves, broken. I don't mean they are entirely dysfunctional, but they work imperfectly. They tend to favor some folks more than others. They tend to favor white Baptist Republican males from Texas a whole lot, in fact. Sometimes people with good intentions, for whom the systems have worked well, think that complaints about unfairness are largely imagined. After all, the systems have worked well from their perspective.<br />
<br />
So not only do broken people cause problems, but broken systems do to. These problems read like a laundry list of today's headlines: the blind and headlong pursuit of money and power (the OT word is idolatry), climate change and disease, wars and terrorism, and even self-image problems ranging from arrogance and hubris to feelings of worthlessness and powerlessness.<br />
<br />
And so we can say that what <i>ought </i>to be is what was <i>meant </i>to be. What ought to be is how things are supposed to be, how they were created to be: good. (By the way, let's agree not to let disagreements about <i>how </i>to bring about justice overshadow our unity about the need for justice itself!) Peace and harmony in all these areas, in all these relationships, is captured well by another Hebrew word, <i>shalom</i>. <br />
<br />
So justice, specifically the tzadeqah justice, is about having all relationships healed, repaired, and redeemed, how they were meant to be, designed to be. It's about shalom throughout all our relationships. And this healing work is, of course, made possible by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ. This is not limited to our soul's relationship to God, Christ's redemption is about healing everything that was broken - every person, every relationship, every system.<br />
<br />
So for me, authors like like Tim Kellar, Ken Wytsma, and Enik have been tranformative to my understanding. And I am responding.<br />
<br />
I have formed an organization called the <a href="http://www.justiceandmercy.engineering/" target="_blank">Justice and Mercy Engineering Society (JAMES)</a> which operates as a program under the respected 501(c)-3 non-profit, <a href="http://www.missionwaco.org/" target="_blank">Mission Waco</a>. The purpose of JAMES is to train engineers (and other technical types) to serve in developing countries with non-profits, missions, and other groups that are doing the work of justice, the work of the kingdom. Specifically, we can train you in regards to off-grid electrical systems (like solar) and water systems.<br />
<br />
JAMES is also sponsoring a simulcast of the nationally known event called The Justice Conference. The conference will feature world-class speakers and artists and will undoubtedly serve as a catalyst for good works all over the world.<br />

First of all, I know what you're thinking. Why are you making charcoal in ethics lab? Why is there even a lab component in an ethics course? What <i>happens </i>in ethics lab? Do you sit around and practice not lying, not taking bribes? Does the administration know how you're spending those tuition dollars?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
My favorite class to teach is <i>Ethics for International Service</i>, a class I created for students that aspire to work overseas, especially in poor countries. One of the things we learn is how to make charcoal from crop residues. Why do we do that?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Much of the world uses wood for cooking. Firewood has to be gathered for this purpose which requires a lot of time. This task usually falls disproportionately on women and children. This labor can take hours every day, hours that can be spent in school or in other productive ways.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Charcoal is another fuel source used throughout the world, but it too is usually made from wood. And regardless of whether you gather your own firewood, or purchase wood-charcoal made by a local vendor, the practice contributes to deforestation in many parts of the world.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So what if we could make charcoal briquettes out of what was otherwise a waste stream, such as crop residues? Corn stalks, coconut husks, or sunflower plants - any of these are a great source. Not only would this practice allow us to be better stewards of creation, it can increase educational opportunities for women and children, and create new revenues for families.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now do you see why this is an appropriate activity for an ethics class focused on the international poor?</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px; text-align: start;">I just finished reading Darragh McKeon's book, "All That Is Solid Melts into Air". Even though I can't pronounce his first name, I enjoyed the place where his book took me. It's part dystopian novel, part historical fiction, part poetry. Simultaneously beautiful and yet disturbing. Like when I dance. Only beautiful. </span></div>

(This was an important time for me because it was my high school and college years.) It is the story of everyday people who live their lives of fear while things inexplicably fall apart around them. </span></div>
<br />
<span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I was intrigued by this novel because the </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster" style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px;" target="_blank">Chernobyl </a><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chernobyl_disaster" style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px;" target="_blank">nuclear disaster</a><span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"> occurred in 1986, just a few weeks before I graduated from high school. As I was preparing to start college as a physics major, the news was telling frightening stories of physics-gone-bad. But honestly, this wasn't too shocking at the time. As far back as the third grade, I can remember having disaster drills at my elementary school that included preparing for nuclear strikes. The hallways at our school had signs in the hall that said "Fallout Shelter". In retrospect, this seems an outrageous and fear-spawning thing to do to elementary school children. But it was the Cold War. It was part life. For example, as a young child I knew the names "Fat Man" and "Little Boy" were given to the bombs dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima. I knew what ICBM stood for. (That's Intercontinental Ballistic Missile.) This was how life was at the time.</span></span><br />

The title is a quotation from Marx's Communist Manifesto; but ironically, this time it is the icon of communism that is melting.</span><br />

In the chapter on the accident itself, they find the section titled "</span><i style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">Operational Procedures in the Event of a Reactor Meltdown</i><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">" has actually been redacted from the nuclear plant's operations manual. "An event such as this cannot be tolerated, cannot be conceived, such a thing can never be planned for, surely as it can never happen. The system will not fail, the system cannot fail, the system is the glorious motherland."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">And a few years later, in 1989, the Berlin Wall came down, a happier symbol of the collapse of the USSR, I was graduating from college. In the preceding years I had largely been to busy or too self absorbed to understand <i>glasnost </i>or <i>perestroika</i>, but I remember when a 19 year old West German flew a small plane all the way into Red Square. I remember when the USSR shot down a Korean airliner that strayed into its airspace. All these details were brought back to me in a way that made me reflect on just how significant those times were.</span></span></span><br />

I suppose we can only dance on, dear readers, each in our own beautifully disturbing way.</span></span></span>ORANGEHOUSEhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13150708788984347924noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1243820962920211334.post-43680668566204193082014-08-22T22:52:00.000-05:002014-08-26T23:12:53.119-05:00My Unfading Introverted TendanciesIntergalactic aliens are invading my home. I know, I know, it's unexpected. Just when I was getting used to the place, too. They've only just arrived in my kitchen as if <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_(1997_US_film)" target="_blank">Jodi Foster</a> called to them by phase modulating my microwave oven through the satellite dish. Will that cost me a roaming fee?<br />
<br />
Their behavior is strange to me, it's unpredictable and erratic, but they also appear to exhibit some kind of intelligence. I am fearful they will knock over my lamps, invade my personal space, or ask me embarrassing questions. Finally, they speak to me:<br />
<br />
"We are freshmen engineering majors. We come in pieces."<br />
<br />

<br />
That's when I remember that I signed up for the Faculty Dinner. All the incoming freshmen are paired up with faculty volunteers for a dinner before classes start next week. My group was all engineering majors. The goal is to foster relationships between students and faculty as soon as possible. Studies show this leads to student success and retention, but I'm in it for the free dinner.<br />
<br />
This is my fourteenth year to teach at Baylor, and yet I felt nervous about them coming over. Some of my jokes about aliens are actually on target. I feared they may ask me embarrassing questions in their youthful naiveté and nervous energy. But this is not so different from when I go to a party of adults; I feel much the same way then too. I suppose you can take the boy out of the introvert but you can't take the introvert out of the boy.<br />

My second post ever was about him. It's called <a href="http://lifeobservationsfromorangehouse.blogspot.com/2007/11/preteen-thanksgiving-miracle.html" target="_blank">A Preteen Thanksgiving Miracle</a>. I cannot really believe it, but a few weeks ago he turned 18. I'm so proud of him - he has surpassed my expectations in so many ways.<br />
<br />
He's had a few birthday celebrations already. We had a nice dinner at home one night. Another night he and some friends went to a movie. And last Friday he had another batch of friends over to go kayaking on the Brazos river, eat dinner at our home, and then hang out at a downtown coffee shop. Here are some photo highlights!<br />

It's 10:00 AM. I'm still sleepy and am preparing my second cup of coffee for the morning. (Don't judge me for sleeping late, I'm on vacation.) Then it happens. A very loud beeping sound is coming from the lobby of our apartment complex. In my groggy mind I think it's the obnoxious beep beep of a forklift from Home Depot about to crash through my front door. Or perhaps it's a dump truck backing up... into my ear canal. It's so ridiculously loud that I am reminded of seeing <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sI7XiJgt0vY" target="_blank">Van Halen in 1982</a>, a concert from which my ears are still ringing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Then I realized it was the fire alarm. Two months ago I moved my family to a loft apartment downtown, but this was the first time the alarms have gone off since we've been here. Back at our old house, the smoke detector went off every time we used the oven. When it did, Jonathan would always say "<i>Mama's cooking again!</i>" and then David would press the quiet button standing flat footed but reaching the ceiling. </div>

We went out into the lobby but didn't see any smoke so we debated whether or not we should actually evacuate. Then we started hearing the fire engines coming down the street, so I grabbed my camera and my coffee cup while Martha got the dogs on leashes. We left the cat with a fire extinguisher and told her to take care of the place. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We spilled outside with our neighbors as no less than <i>four</i> fire trucks pulled up around our building! Tough-looking firemen started coming in with helmets and oxygen tanks. I tried to tell them it was just a Home Depot forklift but they kept avoiding my eye contact.</div>

I am reminded by all of this of an amusing memory. It was fifteen years ago when we first moved into our old house. </div>

Martha and David went away for the weekend because I was going to work on the hardwood floors and the fumes from the polyurethane coating were very strong. It was important that I finish because of the impending Y2K disaster. Friday night I preheated the oven to cook a big batch of shepherd's pie to last me all weekend. But I had forgotten that I (temporarily) stored the Tupperware in the oven. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I know, I know, don't ridicule me. Of course, you know what happened, the Tupperware melted and dripped down on the heating element. Then it caught on fire. Then I tried to put it out with a damp rag, but it didn't work. I tried my fire extinguisher too, but it was too old and didn't work either. I did remember to turn the oven off, gratefully. I called 911 and within a minute or so the city manager/police chief/fire marshal, <a href="http://www.woodway-texas.com/government/city-staff/city-manager/" target="_blank">Yost Zakhary</a>, came around the corner in an SUV. He's dressed in khakis and a button down and has a walkie talkie in his hand. He grabs the milk jug from my kitchen counter and fills it with water from the sink. Then he opens the oven and dumps it all over the fire. With one billow of milky smoke and burned plastic, the problem was solved. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
He mumbled some coded message in the walkie talkie, presumably to call off the mother ship, and turned and walked out the front door. I don't think he ever said a word to me. It was then I noticed a policeman standing in my living room. He stayed around and told me how I could clean the melted plastic out of the oven. No kidding. </div>

Now we live in a downtown apartment so the dogs no longer have a yard in which to run. We tried to make them use the treadmill but they ended up just piling their dirty clothes on it. We take them out on a leash several times a day to do their business. And a few times a week we take them down to a local field and let them romp.<br />

My most recent trip to Haiti was a success in almost every way. In May I led a team of engineering students to assist in the development efforts of <a href="http://www.missionwaco.org/" target="_blank">Mission Waco / Mission World</a> in Ferrier, Haiti. Our primary <u>project</u> was to expand a solar electricity system and provide electricity to a local school. But our primary <u>purpose</u> was to love people and build relationships, and so, to express the love of God.</div>

[The mechanical engineering students constructed the frames to hold the solar panels.

[This year, perhaps more than any previous trip I have led, the students built relationships with the locals.

We also spent a lot of time learning Haitian Creole and helping interested Haitians improve their English.]</div>

Taking teams of engineering students abroad means I deal with sick students. Gratefully, this is not difficult for me; I have been to the ER or held a barf bag for a few over the years. I don't mind. It forms a special bond between us.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
During my last trip to Haiti with 12 other engineers, three of my students got a virus. Two of them got better relatively quickly, but one girl, Elle, (rhymes with jelly) went a little crazy before she bounced back. For a few days she had headaches, a sore throat, and dizziness, like the others. We treated her symptoms and tried to keep her hydrated in the Haitian heat. But after a few days Elle started showing signs of brain malfunction. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Elle is very bright, but Saturday night she started being unable to answer questions like "<i>when did you take your last dose of ibuprofen?</i>" or "<i>how much did you take?</i>" or "<i>where did you leave the kittens?</i>" so I got concerned. My online medical degree had prepared me for this, however, and I suspected that between the Haitian heat and her fever she was dehydrated. On Sunday morning I was awakened by someone poking me in the back saying "<i>the girls tell me Elle just vomited" </i>which, of course, only made dehydration worse.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
"<i>Well then,</i>" says I, "<i>we're going to the hospital</i>."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One of our Haitian friends, Jon Doudou, drove us to the nearby border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic at Dajabon. Incidentally - this was near one of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsley_Massacre" target="_blank">worst massacres</a> in the history of Haiti. Also incidentally, Elle's boyfriend, Jerry, (rhymes with berry) who is fluent in Spanish was on the trip came along to help communicate. When we got to the border we had to leave the truck on the Haitian side because it didn't have the proper papers to cross back and forth.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

[Jon Doudou and I often get mistaken for each other on account of our dressing alike.]</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
With no truck, that means we needed to take a cab to the clinic. What I had failed to understand until that moment, however, was that all "cabs" in Dajabon are motorcycles. So Jon Doudou gets a <i>couple </i>motorcycle taxis and the <i>six </i>of us, including the drivers, ride to the clinic. Three people on a motorcycle is really nothing by Dominican standards, but I'm pretty sure that between Jon Doudou, myself, and our driver, there was over 650 pounds of manliness on our bike. That's a lot of manliness, I tell ya.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Well, I could tell you about how Elle was back to her smart self in about 2 hours after they started the IV, and I could tell you about how they wanted to keep her for a while and observe for signs of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chikungunya" target="_blank">Chikungunya </a>which she did not have, or I could tell you about how Dr. Nirla tried to come over from Haiti to relieve me around 5:00 PM but that she was unable to because someone decided to close the border an hour early. And I could go on to explain about how Dr. Nirla had Elle's contacts case which she had to pass to "some guy" under the bridge for him to hand-carry it across the river border, but instead, I'm going to tell you about my time with Angel Gabriel Marte Tejada, the nurse on duty.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Angel was the only person at the clinic and Elle was the only patient. So he spent a lot of time sitting with us in her room just chatting. Jerry helped us translate between Spanish and English. We talked about our families and lives and how I liked coffee and what his plans for the future were. About 10:00 PM on Sunday night, I mentioned that I was getting a headache. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At this point Angel brings me up to the front of the clinic by myself. No translator. He patiently tells me in Spanish until I understand that he wants me to sit at the front of the clinic in case any patients come while he goes somewhere. So yes, he is leaving me in charge of the clinic. Sorta. I agree because I know that if an emergency patient comes by I can go get Jerry. Between Jerry and my online medical degree I was brimming with confidence, despite my headache.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I sit down in the front of the clinic which is open to the street while Angel gets on his motorcycle and rides away. Fortunately, no patients arrived while he was gone. Ten minutes later Angel returns with a plastic water bottle full of delicious Dominican coffee! He correctly assumed that my headache was caffeine withdrawal. Then he and I sat together on the front porch of the clinic drinking coffee out of little plastic cups used for taking pills. The cups were so thin the coffee burned your fingers, but I kinda like that anyway.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
[Angel and I drinking coffee and talking about life.]</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Keep in mind our conversation was very slow because of my inability to speak Spanish very well. But we weren't in any hurry - in fact we had nothing else to do. I reminded myself that relationships are of cosmic importance.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you have ever heard me try to speak Spanish, you won't believe the rest of this story. But it's true. We talked about complex things such as the Dominican problem of illegal Haitian immigration, and Angel noted that it was similar to the problems we're having in the US. He told me about a motorcycle accident he had when five Haitian men on a single motorcycle ran into him. He pointed out a prostitute and pimp that walked by in front of the clinic and we discussed how the sex trade was bad for everyone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I told him about my experience when my son David was born Cesarean section. I explained how I sat with Martha behind a curtain that separated her head from the rest of her body. I was busy telling her how good she was doing when the doctor said, "Hey Brian, do you want to see her uterus?" The doctor had taken her uterus out of the incision because of some complications and she wanted to know if I would like to take a gander at it before she put it back in. "Sure" I say, because how many times do you get an opportunity like that?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I stood up and peered over the curtain. Then something happened that has never happened before or since. My knees actually wobbled. Before me lay something that looked like a cross between my wife's body and a butcher shop. Freaky. I sat back down before I fell down. Good times.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Perhaps because of Angel's medical training, or perhaps because of my online medical degree, or perhaps because we had all the time in the world, I was able to communicate this complex story in Spanish. We had a good laugh together. It was one of my favorite experiences of the trip.</div>

The memorial service for my Aunt Francine was held at the First Baptist Church of Childress, Texas recently. She was my father's only sibling. Because of his Parkinson's disease, he was unable to travel the nearly 500 miles from Houston. I went on his behalf and had a moving and profound experience as I visited iconic places of my childhood and tried to come to grips with my own mortality. </div>

Aunt Francine and Uncle Bill have lived on and operated a large cattle ranch outside Childress my entire life. It is remote, enormous, and beautifully rugged. As a kid, I used to visit my cousins on the ranch - this was like visiting another planet in a time machine for a boy growing up in Houston.</div>

At the memorial service, Ty read a passage from Aunt Francine's Bible, noting the words she had underlined and personal notes she had written in the margins. Seeing a Lieutenant Colonel in the Marines be emotional and vulnerable in front of the crowd was powerful and moving; it left everyone wiping their eyes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After the service we drove back out to the ranch - for me it was like driving back in time. Very little has changed since I was last there 18 years ago at Amber's wedding. In fact, very little has changed since I was a kid 40 years ago. Then and now, it's like it was when I was a child; you can still see the open land for miles in all directions. There's a neighbor a mile or so to the east, another a mile or so to the west. It's rugged, expansive, beautiful, and almost timeless. Almost.</div>

In the evening after the memorial service, we sat on the stone patio Aunt Francine made and enjoyed the view, the shade, the breeze, and mostly the family. I really enjoyed visiting with my cousins and their spouses and kids, and Uncle Bill, of course. It was hard, however, to speculate about the future with them. As our parents age, how do we respond? How do we want our own children to respond as we, ourselves, age?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
These are questions I have been wrestling with for the last few years in the back of my mind, but this weekend in the Texas panhandle brought them to the forefront with new poignancy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I would have liked to spend another day with them, but I had to leave early the next morning. I decided to drive the additional 100 miles to visit Ralls, Texas where my father grew up and grandparents lived.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
About halfway between the ranch and Ralls is a scenic overlook where the ultra flatness of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caprock_Escarpment" target="_blank">Caprock </a>gives way to the rolling terrain to its east. This is a special place for me; it's the place I proposed to Martha in the summer of 1992. Again, hardly anything has changed there. The land stands in contrast to our lives; it moves at glacial speeds in comparison. Forty years ago this place looked exactly the same, except for some new wind turbines that peeked up over the horizon.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
One of my imagined alternate lives would be to live there, owning and operating a wind farm. In fact, I even toyed with writing a novel set here. I wrote a few chapters about an introverted engineer living here, but instead of ranching cattle like my Uncle Bill, he harvested the wind. </div>

On the subject of harvesting, when my grandfather died, my grandmother planted an oak tree in his honor at the little church he attended. I had not seen the tree in a long time and I wanted to see how large it had grown to be. As you can see, it's doing well! I even took a handful of acorns to plant myself.</div>

Before I left town for the long drive home, I visited the cemetery where my grandparents are buried. I felt compelled to do something that I have never done before. I stood at their grave and talked to them. I'm not sure why I felt I had to do this, but the feeling was strong, and the act was cathartic. I told them that their beloved daughter had died. I know they already knew this because they are in heaven now, but I felt like I needed to give them the bad news somehow. I left a flower from her memorial service on their tombstone.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
When I visited their grave, a wave of sadness overwhelmed me. I grieved for my aunt, my grandparents, my father's struggles with Parkinson's disease, and even the loss of my own childhood. My sense of adulthood, my sense of mortality, and the fact that even the seemingly unchangeable does, indeed, change and move on - these were overwhelming to me. Standing in the cemetery with my camera in hand, I wept like a baby.</div>

<br />
The Ralls cemetery has a new chapel and, just behind it, five large wind turbines: symbols that change really does happen, and also that it isn't all bad. There can be hope in change; things can really get better, they need not always decay. This helps me accept my own aging and mortality. This helps me grieve the losses that inevitably come to us in life.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Last week I moved my family from the house we've been living in for 15 years - a.k.a. the Orangehouse - to a loft apartment downtown! Of course, it had to be orange too. The building is over 100 years old but was converted into apartments about ten years ago. </div>

I know what you're thinking - what about all your stuff? Yes, it's true, I have a lot of stuff. Too much, perhaps. So this is actually forcing me to weed out, give away, and organize my stuff so it fits into a smaller space. A smaller space and a 200 square foot storage unit. And a small airplane hanger. And the Astrodome. And Mars.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This week we listed the first Orangehouse with a real estate agent. Want to buy it? It's 300 feet from Woodway Elementary school, has big trees, cool orange bricks and questionable plumbing. Make me an offer.</div>

The ceilings in the loft are 16 feet tall! That means my living room is taller than it is wide. Like me. At least for the moment. Here's what it looks like. I could put a basketball goal in here. Yes, that's a swing in the foreground. The previous tenet hung it from a beam in the ceiling. It's Jono's favorite part.</div>

As I write this I am preparing to lead a trip of engineering students on a two week trip to Haiti and the Dominican Republic. I can't sleep. I need to pack. My thoughts are racing. So what do I do? In a fit of procrastination I decided it was time to write a blog post!<br />
<br />
As I sit here at midnight I am listening to a song called "<a href="https://play.google.com/store/music/album?id=Bcsr4fggir3czeh2y2xpmvkcenm&tid=song-Tx4bajept5hqgkfvaxrpuqrgvh4&rdot=1&rdid=song-Tx4bajept5hqgkfvaxrpuqrgvh4&partner=ytctb">Mother India</a>".
It’s one of my favorite songs. It's about the mutual brokenness of the third world and the first world. It has been my observation that both of these "worlds" are really screwed up. Of course, Texas and Haiti, for example, are very different in some ways. I don't mean to minimize that. But there is a shared human experience in both of them. We're all really broken, but on us all are the fingerprints of a genius Creator. The song captures this well and ends with a great hope.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Father God, you have shed your tears for Mother India</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They have fallen to water ancient seeds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That will grow into hands that touch the untouchable</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How blessed are the poor, the sick, the weak</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Serpent spoke and the world believed its venom</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now we're ten to a room or compared to magazines</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's a land where our shackles turn to diamonds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Where we trade in our rags for a royal crown</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In that place, our oppressors hold no power</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the doors of the King are thrown wide </div>
<br />My favorite line is <i>Now we're ten to a room or compared to magazines</i>. Do you get it? In the so-called "third world" people are often crowded into slums - a family of ten can share a 100 square feet. Poverty is horrible. And in the "first world" I know many folks tangled in the web of consumerism, comparisons, or body issues; a web spun by media marketeers. Our lives are constantly <i>compared to magazines</i>. Both worlds are broken. There's wisdom in this song. I consider it an anthem of my calling.<br />
<br />
"My <i>calling</i>"? Isn't that a bit medieval,
you say? What is that "calling" of yours, Mr. Joan of Arc?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
I hesitate to write it because I might be wrong, or partially
wrong, and embarrass myself in the future by saying it's such and such.
Or perhaps I will embarrass God if I say my calling is "<i>this</i>"
when he's been trying so hard to get me to see that it's "<i>that</i>".
So let's put down some caveats. This is what I think it might be,
or perhaps it's just what I want it to be, or perhaps it's what I think it is
tonight as I'm loosened up on Xanax.<o:p></o:p><br />

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Is he serious? Why is he all "loosened up"? Is he an
abuser now? I don't think so. It's not "abuse" if you have a
prescription and take it per the doctor's instructions. The Xanax is for the insomnia he's been having lately. Even so, it makes<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><s>me</s><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>him a little buzzed and less
inhibited. Will this help him write? Perhaps it will pharmaceutically dislodge
his writer’s block like ex-lax for the blogosphere.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Why is he having insomnia? It usually comes about this time of year (early May). This year he's busy with grading finals and helping his son with his Eagle Scout
requirements and coordinating a dozen other engineers to go to Haiti in three
days and teaching summer school and moving out of his house - all within a 60 day window. He's pretty stressed out. Oh, and he’s
building a time machine out of discarded flip-phones fished out of a
dumpster. Discarded flip phones are plentiful because of their obvious
inferiority at wasting our time compared to newer touch-screen phones with way
more apps. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<i>I'm going back to first person now.</i><br />
My phone's touch-screen is broken. Not broken like the world, broken like glass. I dropped it too many times and now the
screen looks like a spider web. But it works just fine. It doesn't hurt my
fingers to slide on the broken glass, and if I can't read something because of
the cracks I just slide it up or down to a less broken spot. I can waste
time just fine. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
In this unfocused post I think I am trying to talk about what it means to have, and
identify, one's calling. I do an amateur job of this in my freshman engineering
classes helping students figure out that they can't all be Iron Man. I paraphrase Frederick Buechner when I say God's
calling for you is this: <i>the intersection of
your gifts, talents, and passions with the world's great need</i>. In my class, I unpack this idea to help the students understand it. But I don't
have to explain what that means in this post because there's nobody reading this except
me and the third person. I like writing in the third person. How did I
get<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><i>in</i> the third
person, anyway? Did he eat me? Did I use a shrink ray to get really
small so I could walk around in his guts and take selfies by his pancreas and
stuff?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
Yes, that's exactly what I did.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
But seriously, to the best of my knowledge, I think my own calling,
or the intersection of my gifts, talents, and passions with the world's great
need is this:<br />
<br />
to be Iron Man myself. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0in;">
No that's not right.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 1969 a baby girl and her family took a summer vacation at a dude ranch outside Del Rio near the Mexican border. It was a hot Texas summer and the family rode in a station wagon from their home in Houston with the convenience of air conditioning but without the <u>in</u>convenience of seat belts. Once they got to the ranch, however, they rode horses with neither. Since the baby girl had not yet been born, she rode in her mother. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This was Ross and Ginger's second marriage each. She brought one teenage daughter into the new family. He brought a daughter and two sons. They were very different people, but their differences fit together like pieces of a dysfunctional jigsaw puzzle. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Both of them smoked a lot of cigarettes. This was before smoking was bad for you. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ten weeks before Ginger was due to give birth she went into labor at the dude ranch. They station-wagoned over to the nearest clinic in Del Rio and that's where Martha was born. Except her name wasn't Martha yet, because the doctor told the family that she would not live and advised them not to give her a name. She weighed less than four pounds and, like most premature babies, had underdeveloped lungs. The clinic lacked the equipment required to treat a baby this little. Since they didn't even have an oxygen mask small enough, they pointed a hose at her face and fixed it to the side of her little bed. Her parents and brothers and sisters came to see her. Her skin was red and she had no fingernails. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Her chest labored up and down as she struggled to breathe. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Then something </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">happened that is </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">hard to understand. The family spent a few more days in Del Rio taking pictures of the little girl who would be named Martha and holding her. Then they left. They drove back to Houston and left her there to die by herself at the clinic. Undoubtedly, this was Ross's idea. The situation was too out of control for a controller like him to tolerate. But Ginger complied because she was powerless and afraid to refuse him. Leaving Martha behind was a source of shame for them for the rest of their lives.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They called the clinic regularly from their home in Houston to see how things were progressing and after several weeks the doctors became convinced she was going to live after all! Ross and Ginger drove back to Del Rio and brought Martha home laying on the front seat of their station wagon. They arrived on the day Neil Armstrong first set foot on the Moon. It was July 21, 1969.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">---------------------------------------------------------</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Forty four years later Martha is a grown woman with children of her own. I am her husband and we have been married twenty years. Except for a couple of brief periods I'm not supposed tell you about, she has not smoked cigarettes, ridden horses, or been back to Del Rio. She drives a high-mileage minivan which is like a station wagon only taller.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Over the years her mother's health degenerated; Ginger was spending week after week in hospitals and rehab centers to treat her COPD. All those years of smoking had ruined her lungs to the point that her breathing was shallow on a good day and full of suffocating panic on a bad day. Martha arranged for a nursing home in Waco where we live with our children and minivan. We moved her there and in a short time her strength and attitude improved significantly. The nurses guiding her through her respiratory therapies would often tease her and laugh with her until her blood oxygen count reached 100%.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But the day after Thanksgiving, 2012, she had a flare up and had to be hospitalized, and it was then that we learned how bad her condition was. The doctors told us she had a 50/50 chance of making it through the night. She did survive that night, but the next day she and Martha decided the best thing was for her to enroll in hospice care.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Martha visited her every day for eight days. The morphine was a great help. Not only did it decrease the oxygen consumption of her body, it also calmed her fears and took away her panic. This was the most peaceful she had been in years. On the ninth day it seemed the end was near and Martha stayed with her around the clock. She stroked her hair, whispered prayers into her ears, and told her it was OK to let go. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I came up to visit and bring Martha a change of clothes. Ginger laid on her back while Martha held her hand.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Her chest labored up and down as she struggled to breathe. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's when it hit me. Although Ginger had given up on Martha and left her to die as a baby, Martha refused to leave her mother. What a picture of forgiveness this was. What mercy I had just witnessed. What an act turning the other cheek. It left me speechless and I went home and wept for the beauty of it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">She died the next day in Martha's company. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It was days before I could talk about it without choking on my words, but eventually I pointed out what she had not noticed herself, the redeemed contrast of her own birth and her mother's death that I had observed. She was overcome.</span></div>

</div>
This post is a list of people I call my heroes. They have inspired me, or informed me, or encouraged me to one degree or another. Some of their influences affected me in earlier years of my life, some are still in progress. They have all had me in tears at one point or another, some many times.<br />
<br />
I list them in no particular order. About some I have much to say, others not so much. Don't read anything into that. Their influences are all too multi-dimensional to make direct comparisons between them.<br />
<br />
I must confess to you that I worry about making this public. It is my own weakness that I worry about what you think. What if you hate them? What if you think they are trouble-makers, bigots, ivory-tower-ish, or self-righteous? What if you roll your eyes at my list? What if you think them pretentious and (gasp) me too by extension??? Well, so be it. These folks are awesome.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Francis Schaeffer's books - how can I say it? - finally made sense of the world. The first one I read was "How Should We Then Live? The Rise and Decline of Western Thought and Culture". It was a brief history of western thought, why it was great, where it went wrong, and where it is headed. In its few hundred pages, it transformed my understanding of philosophy, art, culture, politics, law, theology, and history. It put a big enough frame around them all that I could finally start making some sense of them all. He was a genius. I wanted to name my youngest son Schaeffer, but my wife was afraid he would be beaten up on account having a funny name. So we made Schaeffer his <i>middle </i>name!</div>

Nothing I can say is adequate praise for the Saint of Calcutta, Mother Teresa. Her devotion to the poor and marginalized (sustained for 45 years!) is nothing less than inspirational. I love this picture of her.</div>

Rich Mullins was a musician whose life and lyrics communicated great spiritual depth and yet sincere humility. His authenticity and simplicity inspired me and challenged my suburban middle class life. There was a longing in his music, a hunger for something else over the horizon: heaven.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Bono is still alive, and therefore a potential threat to my hero list; he could still do something to embarrass me. My first real connection to his music and message came in 1987, the spring of my freshman year of college when U2 released "The Joshua Tree". My roommate and I played it countless times and even today hearing it will evoke good memories from that time of my life. Like MLK, Bono uses his voice both metaphorically and literally to "defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. [To] rescue the weak and the needy; [and] deliver them from the hand of the wicked" as Psalm 82:3-4 says. And like MLK, his motivation for this voice is born out of his grateful heart redeemed by his Creator. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I was born to sing for you</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I didn't have a choice but to lift you up</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And sing whatever song you wanted me to</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I give you back my voice</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
From the womb my first cry, it was a joyful noise...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Only love, only love can leave such a mark</div>

Chuck Colson spent time in prison for his part in the Watergate scandal. In the midst of his arrest and sentencing he became a Christian. He founded Prison Fellowship to minister to the forgotten and the thrown away in prisons. His book "Loving God" changed the way I think about prisoners, human dignity, hope, and service. His radio commentaries on science, culture, and apologetics picked up where Schaeffer left off.</div>

I was five months old when MLK was assassinated. His eloquent and peaceful fight for justice has as its anthem the Bible verse Amos 5:24 - "But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream." Justice matters. People matter. Human dignity matters.</div>

My favorite author, Clive Staples Lewis, died on the same day JFK was assassinated. During college his books showed me that being a Christian and an intellectual need not be mutually exclusive, and that the growing chasm between my faith and my intellect could be closed. This was, for me, a reconciliation marked by enormous relief. His influence on my life has been more than significant.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
One of my favorite quotes of his, one that is not well-known I think, particularly inspires me. It reminds me of my father's struggles with Parkinson's disease: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
"But if you are a poor creature--poisoned by a wretched up-bringing in some house full of vulgar jealousies and senseless quarrels--saddled, by no choice of your own, with some loathsome sexual perversion--nagged day in and day out by an inferiority complex that makes you snap at your best friends--do not despair. He knows all about it. You are one of the poor whom He blessed. <i>He knows what a wretched machine you are trying to drive</i>. Keep on. Do what you can. One day He will fling it on the scrap-heap and give you a new one. And then you may astonish us all - not least yourself." <br />Italics mine.</div>

I didn't know it but I was sitting on winning loto tickets - in a sense.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I had four tickets to the Baylor vs. Kansas State football game last night. Two of my family weren't interested in going, so David and I invited a couple of friends. My friend, Brad, has coached football, played football, and I think, on occasion, actually eats footballs. He is immensely more familiar with the game than I am. Going to the game with me was, for him, like going to the Republican National Convention post-convention baseball game with European socialist tourist that only speaks French.<br /></div>

</tbody></table>
<div>
OK, I'm not really sure what that meant, but let's just say it this way: he knows the game, I do not.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For instance, as we were in the Whataburger drive through getting some dinner before the game, he excitedly said to me "I can't believe you invited me to see the number one team in the nation!" I knew enough to know that he was not referring to Baylor. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"You mean Kansas State is ranked number one right now?" I honestly had no idea.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Coughing on his double-meat double-cheese with no lettuce, Brad refrained from the opportunity to belittle my manhood. I was grateful. But I was also a little discouraged, since I figured that meant Baylor would lose badly. This was the only game I planned to attend this year, and I didn't want to have my team down by, like, a hundred points or something.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
You see, I am enough of a fan to watch Baylor play, but not enough of a fan to care about any other team. I care about the school, not the game. Well, that's not true. I also care enough to smile a little when Texas A&M loses. Last year A&M abandoned century-old rivalries to join the SEC and get a more lucrative television contract. I think that represents the worst in collegiate athletics. That and I think maroon is just plain ugly.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
At any rate, Brad patiently schooled me on football during the game and I enjoyed it more because of it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And they played spectacularly.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And Baylor defeated the top-ranked team in the nation for the first time in school history! I could not believe it. I loved it. It was the most fun I have ever had at a football game. Thanks Baylor! Thanks Brad!</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Oh Middle-Aged Fat Guy, what are you up to this time? Why haven't you been blogging? Why aren't you funny anymore? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have no explanations for the decrease in humor other than middle age and finally kicking that pain-killer habit. As for what I am up to, read on citizens, read on. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here's something really new in my life: I have graciously accepted an offer to join a well-respected local non-profit organization called Mission Waco/Mission World. For 28 years MW/MW has been practicing a holistic Christian ministry with the homeless in Waco, Texas. In addition to this, they do work in Mexico, India, and Haiti with long-term indigenous partners. They let me join up with them because I told them I could juggle and pick locks. But of course, this is a lie.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In the town of Ferrier, Haiti, MW/MW has been working doing clean water ministries by helping locals drill water wells, maintain human-powered water pumps, and get access to water chlorinators and ceramic water filters. One of their main goals is to keep children under five years old from dying from water-borne illnesses. Sadly, this is too common. I'm eager to learn how they go about this and see if there is any way I can help. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Perhaps, if the need is there, I could help them establish a solar battery-charging station for the chlorinator equipment or help with some other energy needs. At this point I don't know how, exactly, I can help them, but I am willing and able to try. I am going on my first trip to Haiti next month to explore, support, and begin some new relationships. Well, technically, I have been to Haiti once before in 1976, but that hardly counts on account of me being nine at the time. That's like saying you have been to all the states but really you only changed planes in Wisconsin. It didn't really count as "being there" unless you spent the night or got a movie from a Red Box.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So there will be a new program at MW/MW called Six Eight Technologies and I will be the program director. The name is in reference to Micah 6:8 - do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. If technologies can bring justice, if technologies can express mercy, and if they can bring people closer to God, then that's what we're about. In this role I will be supporting the other MW/MW works, especially in Haiti, and will be developing some training materials to help people learn how to do the same in other locations. I will have other blog posts about what this might look like later.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used an online logo generating website to come up with a logo for 6:8 technologies. I think it's pretty awesome. It looks like an 8. It looks like an infinity (think eternity). It looks like rolling waters. It even looks like sixes, all interwoven and twisty. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After I pay a fee, the online logo service will give me a cleaner copy without the blue squares in the background. But I kinda like them. They make it look like it is drawn on engineering paper. Reminds me of lock-picking school back in the day. Nostalgic sigh.</span></div>
