I guess it’s not for everyone. In fact, amazingly enough, most people don’t want it and don’t even wanna talk about it. But the promise of living forever sounds mighty appealing to me. I can barely imagine not having that hope. Not having the security that hope provides. And I have a vivid imagination. But, obviously, it’s not for everyone. Just take a few … The rest of the story…

The second best gift God created inside me is music. It’s been a constant companion. Even through the years when I had no human constant companion. It’s been a reminder that I’m “wonderfully made.” Music brings me internal and inexplicable joy. In, and through, my circumstances. Just as life is music to my ears, music is life to my ears. And the cup of … The rest of the story…
An adult Christian man was a stupid boy on a social media channel early this morning. Because he wrote something stupid. And he writes a lot of things like this morning’s little jab. And I don’t why he’d say and do the things he does, in public, other than he likes picking fights with other Christians. That’s why I said he was a stupid … The rest of the story…
What does it take to see the color of music? Well, take an old boom box, some music, paints, and an ultra slow motion camera, and you’ve got the ingredients for razzle dazzle. Check out this video: Here’s the link to the colorful, slow-motion video in case that works better for you: (https://youtu.be/5WKU7gG_ApU) Yeah, I know that’s a multimedia way to illustrate the color … The rest of the story…
So, I found a website about an organization called “Faith in Action.” And I don’t think those words mean what the people in that organization think they mean. Unless, of course, their faith in action is in themselves. I haven’t read their entire website. And I probably won’t ever have time to do that. Just as they’ll never have time to read all of … The rest of the story…
This is the third day, in three years, that she’s not here. And she’s not coming back. And I certainly don’t blame her. Because why would she even want to? OK, I’ll clear up the third day reference. And instead of sounding vague and secretive, I’ll just share the short story of her life that I shared a couple of years ago. Then, you’ll … The rest of the story…
OK, brace yourself. It’s gonna get serious mighty quick here. Starting with this question. How can you reconcile a loving God with all the pain in the world? People who want nothing to do with God ask questions like that so they can point out the so-called “flaws” in Christian faith. But I have another question for them. Do you actually believe that love … The rest of the story…
So, you’re sitting there trying to figure out what you can do for the 364 more days till Christmas. Right? Yeah, it’s all over but the leftovers now. Christmas came and went, as it has for years. Fast. And. Furious. And I won’t be surprised if I go into places of business today and hear NO Christmas music. Funny how it can start up … The rest of the story…
Over the years I’ve observed kids and their love for whimsy. So, I write whimsical rhymes. Fun, funny rhymes. Full of imagination. And filled with color, action, and rhythm. I want word pictures to leap into those growing little minds. And I firmly believe the words I write for kids should help them build faith, hope, and love. With a smile. Lots of writers, … The rest of the story…
I recommend you don’t live a meaningless life. On the surface, that might sound like a job for Captain Obvious. But, sadly, most people who ever lived, are living now, or ever will live, won’t avoid it. About 8 years ago, I wrote about what makes up a meaningless life. Here’s what I said. And it still applies: “Surely you get my point. And … The rest of the story…
