		<title>Build a More Powerful Home NAS Server for Less</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The consumer NAS (Network Attached Storage) market is flooded with high margin devices that deliver mediocre performance.  Typical diskless NAS devices with 4 to 6 drive slots cost $300 to $1100, but then you must purchase the drives to complete your NAS system.  There are also NAS solutions on the market complete with drives, but again, they cost about the same and require you to purchase proprietary [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[People in the church have always had disagreements, and they always will because Christians are thrust together from all races, cultures and backgrounds.  This diverse nature of The Church often causes conflict between brethren and creates disunity.  For that reason, the Apostle Paul calls for acceptance of one another in spite of strong differences among brethren. Some of these disagreements are doctrinal in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Agree to Disagree?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The past year has brought about many political debates and discussions.  This is an important part of understanding the issues at hand and taking care of them, but political discussions are often criticized for lacking substance and failing to actually engage the issues. Many years ago, Jacques Barzun, an American historian of ideas and culture, introduced the term &#8220;thought cliché&#8221; [...]]]></description>

		<title>What is Corrupting Talk?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We live in a very desensitized society.  From television to shopping we&#8217;re inundated with sensual and vulgar images and speech.  These are obvious things from which Christians ought to abstain.  However, there are many subtle areas of desensitization in American culture of which we&#8217;re often unaware.  One of these subtleties are euphemisms.

		<title>Watch What You Watch</title>
		<description><![CDATA[King David made an incredible resolution when he said, “I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; it shall not cling to me” (Psalm 101:3).  However, his decision to stay on the right track as king of God’s people is applicable to more than just kings.  All Christians should look to [...]]]></description>
