I’m sitting here reflecting on some of the good teaching we have been listening to on Tuesday nights here at the Men's group at church. Andy Stanley’s video lessons on discovering God’s will has been insightful.

Speaking of discovering things, here are some links I’ve run across lately which might be of interest to some.
1. This is a link to maps of the Holy Lands drawn as far back as the 1600’s up through the mid 1920’s.

2. For a more up-to-date look at the middle east, go to:
http://www.biblemap.org/
Plug in a chapter and verse and you will be taken, via Google Earth, to that location in the Holy Lands. These are the modern cities, of course, but a fascinating resource nonetheless.
3. For a map a little closer to home, the Oklahoma Department of Transportation now has put the 2007 Oklahoma map online at:
http://www.okladot.state.ok.us/hqdiv/p-r-div/maps/2007state/index.htm
You can download the whole map or just sections (Tulsa, OKC, downtown Tulsa, etc) in PDF format, plus you don’t have to fuss with refolding the maps each time.
4. Still looking for some things to do?
Go see the archeological exhibit From Abraham to Jesus:
http://fromabrahamtojesus.com/cities/tulsa.shtml
This is in Tulsa through the end of February. Poke around on the website for more information.
5. Finally, a regular Tulsa event: the monthly computer swap meet convenes every third Saturday of the month. New, used desktops, laptops, and parts. Software, books, etc. $2 admission, I think.
