    Two For Tuesday: February 4th, 2025 Love and Marriage

    These days I wonder if we should perhaps consider our national identity as a marriage between two basic perspectives. Clearly, the honeymoon is long forgotten as we are currently separated with no reconcilliation in sight. Guess what, as with any marriage, at least any marriage that involves kids, there is more at stake than just…

    No Love For Wednesday

    Have you ever noticed Fridays and Saturdays get all the best songs? Sundays and Mondays have been sung about as well. Even Tuesday has a few hits.

    Streetlights On A Friday Night: We Are All Connected

    For Mom, Tough day? Rough week? Where is the peace and solace you seek? Is the pain overwhelming? Does every movement cause more pain? Is this isolation all you have left in this world? Is there nothing more to gain? October, my favorite month. The weather changes, the heat finally relents. Football, fireflies, colorful trees,…

    The Unnecessary Hate

    If we are all made in God’s image, then why are so many of us persecuted, shamed, and cast out for simply being who we are, how God supposedly made us? Short side rant… I will never understand book burners. If they truly thought burning books would help, they should have started with the Bible.…

    The Struggle The Scars And The Silver Lining Part 1
