She wrote a book telling you how to give a baby a safe and loving place. And the excerpt I read is so sickeningly sweet I think I got a cavity from just reading it. It’s just plain awful. Yeah, you read that right. That “sweet” book is awful. What could be awful about giving a baby a safe and loving place? Well, nothing. … The rest of the story…

I don’t know how many times I’ve heard this. But it’s a lot. Someone gives a presentation and says there’ll be time for Q&A at the end. Then they say something like, “And remember…there are no stupid questions.” But there ARE stupid questions. Plenty of them. And it’s uncanny (but not surprising) how so many of them start with “why.” Sad, too. Because a … The rest of the story…
Who you are, what you do, and what you know, all of it, means nothing without love. Absolutely nothing. Because if it isn’t in you, then neither is life. So, that means you and I are nothing without love from God. Because love didn’t evolve. It came from an eternal source. And that source is your Creator. Whether you believe in Him or not … The rest of the story…
Back in 1976, I got to see a farewell concert by Loggins and Messina. It was in the Uptown Theater in Kansas City. A very cool venue which seated only about 2000 people. They had been a duo for a while. And they wanted to go their own creative ways. The Bellamy Brothers were their opening act. And you might remember them for a … The rest of the story…
OK, for this meeting of Overeaters Anonymous, I’d like to pick up where we left off during the last meeting. And that, of course, is the ever-important issue. Dessert: before or after the meal? And while Albert reads the minutes of the last meeting, let’s all sample this excellent crab dip. Mm..Mm. Overeaters Anonymous is my favorite group. My only question is…why be anonymous? … The rest of the story…
If you’re a Christian, conservative type of person, you might be feeling enemies at the gate right about now. And if you’re not, it’s either because you keep your light under a basket, or they just haven’t gotten to you, yet. But fair warning. There WILL be enemies at the gate. Once you live beyond your childhood you acquire enemies. That’s a sad and … The rest of the story…
Sol was a songwriter. And way ahead of his time. But he could be SO negative. And that’s even after he basically had NO reason to be negative. At least as far as anybody could tell. But he toned down his negativity (a little) when he wrote some famous song lyrics that started with “To everything there is a season.” Can you sing the … The rest of the story…
Real Christian love isn’t about sugar-coated, ubiquitous forgiveness. And it certainly isn’t about all the so-called “gifts of the Spirit.” No, if you truly want to be more Christ-like (and you should want that), you should focus on what God’s word. His WHOLE word. Yeah, real Christian love realizes the need to rightly divide the word of Truth. Because the sugar-coated, ubiquitous forgiveness kind … The rest of the story…
There it was again today. Another case of a Christian guy saying, “Don’t judge.” And he’s a nice guy. We’re connected on a social media channel. We’ve never met in person. But if we knew each other better, I’d be sure to tell him to stop saying that. Because it’s hypocritical talk. Yep. Telling people not to judge is hypocritical talk. Because you DO … The rest of the story…
In our galaxy, but far, far away, are known forces at work. Like a giant vacuum cleaner. And I believe, once you hear this, you’ll see the zodiacal light and become a Christian. Well, maybe that’s just pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking. Or maybe some known forces will start working on your soul. But…to get back to my point for the day… You probably already know … The rest of the story…
