Have you heard any of those marketers who talk about working on your laptop on a beach? Of course, that’s just so much hype and silliness. I’m not saying it can’t be done. But most hard-working entrepreneurs don’t live that life. So why does so much hype, like that, get spread all over the internet? Because it sounds so cool. Duh! Except, when you … The rest of the story…
I crunched my thumb in the door of our van this morning. And that’s how my day started. But my day is blessed. And I can always say my day is blessed. No matter what happens. And no matter how often it happens. Or doesn’t happen. Because each day of life is a blessing I didn’t do one thing to earn. My existence is … The rest of the story…
Trivium. No, it’s not a new antidepressant. At least not yet anyway. The word, Trivium, is Latin for “the place where three roads meet.” And it’s also what they call the three stages of classical homeschooling. The Grammar Stage. The Dialectic Stage. And the Rhetoric Stage. And keep in mind, these three roads meet in a homeschool. It’s not likely you’d ever even hear … The rest of the story…
My mother’s mother, also known as Grandma, spent the last few years of her life in a nursing home. She lived to be 91. And my mom said one of the few things Grandma could remember in her final months was the old song, “I’ll Fly Away.” You remember how that one goes. Right? Some glad morning when this life is o’er, I’ll fly … The rest of the story…
My brother and I got an Aiwa reel-to-reel tape recorder for Christmas one year when we were pre-teens. And that might have been a Christmas that helped shape the course of my creative life. You’ve probably heard of an Aiwa reel-to-reel tape recorder. Or at least some kind of reel-to-reel tape recorder. Right? And I gotta say it was a pretty big deal that … The rest of the story…
A few years ago I talked about sad conversations I had with friends, from my past, who were atheists. And I said those conversations were sad “because so many (if not all) atheists believe when you die, that’s it.” Darkness. Nothingness. No R.I.P. They say that when you die, all that is you ceases to be. And it makes me sad for them because … The rest of the story…
Since it’s now illegal to prevent crime in a lot of places in the USA, I’m guessing that must be true in even more progressive places. Like say, Europe. Or Australia. Or South America. So, I’m conjuring up a way to visit those places to vote in their elections. Not because I care who wins or loses. No. Just because it would be kinda … The rest of the story…
Some people, even some Christians, say that what’s going on, in the Southeast, is God getting our attention. Or maybe that He’s sending down some wrath on haters. Have you heard anything like that? I even watched a young woman, in a video, say she was glad that area was hit so hard by Hurricane Helene. Well, it’s total nonsense. And that kind of … The rest of the story…
Here’s a quick reminder. Back in 2009 I was in the middle of my three years as a music leader for a small Denver area church. The pastor did an excellent job of equipping the saints. And it was a church with a strong, abolitionist, pro life foundation. So, a definite win-win place to worship God. Plus, they led the charge to establish the … The rest of the story…
Before I share the key to success, let me assure you that my guess is you already know this. And I think it would be a good idea to define success. Don’t you? After all, if it’s only a vague concept, how will you ever know if you’ve reached it? Plus, if you never know if and when you’re successful, your life will feel … The rest of the story…
