Power Outage
Sorry for our extended absence! The site has been down for the last two days due to a power outage here at Tyndale House Publishers. On Monday night, a pretty nasty storm made its way through the Chicago area, and our offices in the western suburbs lost power.

For some reason, the electric company prioritizes residential addresses when working to restore power (imagine that!), so we pretty much had to close up shop for two business days because we didn't have sufficient power to run the HVAC and computer networks. Since we host this blog here at Tyndale, that meant the blog (and all of our other sites) were down as well.

The good people at ComEd have restored our power, we are back in the office, and our websites are coming back online. We'll resume our regular posting soon.

Keith,

Glad to hear ComEd has y'all back in business. We lost power here in Chesterton, IN (how about that F2 Tornado in Griffith, IN?)It was bad in both states...

I had Internet & Blog withdrawals along with no AC but the LORD delivered me and saw that it was good!!

10 How I praise the Lord that you are concerned about me again. I know you have always been concerned for me, but you didn’t have the chance to help me. 11 Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have. 12 I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. 13 For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.
Philippians 4:10-13(NLTse)

I couldn't resist!
Spoken like a True Protestant-
Ev Xpistw,

Thanks Jimbo and Gary; it's good to have the blog back up and functional. Thankfully nobody was injured in the storms (to my knowledge).
