Stress and anxiety. Ho-hum, no pro-blum. Right? So life’s a little stressful. And who cares about anxiety? You and I just sing in the face of such things. Like this… In case you can’t see the video copy and paste this link: https://youtu.be/lCE2JiPVkas Anyway… Most joking aside, stress and anxiety are real. And WAY too destructively real for WAY too many people. See if you … The rest of the story…
Negative and positive attitudes can both be caused by something. And you can look around and see plenty of places to put (or lay) the blame. Tyrants in control of many (or most) of the nations. Self-serving, thieving politicians. Ubiquitous drugs, legal and illegal. And the list goes on. But I believe negative and positive attitudes are actually your fault. Because, ultimately, YOU decide … The rest of the story…
I read another interesting article about health benefits from the elements of music. And this article used a couple of words you should never use if you don’t believe in our Creator God. A woman, named Barbara Else, who’s a senior advisor of policy and research at the American Music Therapy Association, said this… “We have a such a deep connection to music because … The rest of the story…
It’s the term for when a record or album sells at least two million copies. And back in 1972, a collection of Christian music was recorded that would become an album of double platinum songs. And that album would become the bestselling gospel album ever. The Queen of Soul sang those double platinum songs. And she sang a lot of other hits, too. In … The rest of the story…
About 5 years ago I had an idea for an abounding grace song. So, I did what I always do. I wrote the lyrics. But there was still something missing. In fact a couple of things still missing. Seems like an abounding grace song would need music. Right? Yeah, that’s usually how it works. Words and music make a song. But I didn’t put … The rest of the story…
Who’s afraid of a little extra heat? I’ve shared, a few times, how God promises that as long as the earth is around we’ll have our regular kinds of weather. And now I wanna share a video with you about some animals that got stuck in the ice and froze right where they were because it was so cold. The man in the video … The rest of the story…
The road to perdition is paved with nothing. And as silly as that sounds, most people on our little blue planet believe it’s the right road. And they’ll even say it out loud. With conviction. And sometimes indignation. I found this definition, in an online dictionary, for perdition: (in Christian theology) a state of eternal punishment and damnation into which a sinful and unrepentant … The rest of the story…
Imagine directing a film version of The Ten Commandments. And including a scene, from the Bible, where God parted the Red Sea. OK. Now imagine directing that movie in 1923. When there was no such thing as a green screen, motion capture suits, or digital editing. What an incredible undertaking that would be. And it seems like a director might look for easier projects … The rest of the story…
“the poor will never cease from the land.” Wow, that’s a pretty negative quote. Sounds like somebody who just doesn’t have foresight. Definitely not a visionary. Not like one entrepreneur I’m connected with in a business network. I just saw a post of his where he said his purpose is to “end poverty.” So, he obviously doesn’t believe the poor will never cease from … The rest of the story…
My love for letters and words began long before my first day of school. Many of my earliest memories are of my Grandmother and my Mom reading stories and the Sunday “funnies” to me. And I think the word pictures from those stories and comic strips led, in part, to my lifelong habits of observation. Here’s how I see it (pun slightly intended) observation … The rest of the story…
