I learned a long time ago that public speaking can be difficult. Every time you step in front of a group their expectation is you hit a homerun! However, we all know that sometimes life really is like baseball and if you are hitting .300, you’re an all-star! That means you fail seven out of

Hey everyone! So, I haven’t blogged in FOREVER because I really haven’t had much to say to be honest.

I have some holy discontent this morning, so I need to vent. Actually, I’ve had this holy discontent for a week after I went to a meeting with a bunch of pastors. Now, I have to admit that I know better than to go to meetings. As I’ve gotten older and my cPTSD has morphed

I don’t usually touch the social issues in my preaching and writing. I think the battle lines are drawn pretty clearly and it is so divisive. What else needs to be said, right? However, with the leak of the Supreme Court draft opinion on the Texas abortion case I think it’s important to say a

My buddy Jeff – who I met via these blogs – has written a thoughtful response to my Godless Millennials post. Thought it was worth publishing so others could see his thoughts. So, here you go! Thanks, Jeff, for your email! Hello Tom, Jeff here again. I recently read your blog about Millennials and felt
