• Demons Among Us

    I had a weird thing happen the other morning. I was driving down a four-lane street with heavy traffic that leads to a cloverleaf on-ramp to Interstate 5. We’re all going about 50 miles per hour when I look ahead of me and people are slowing down fast! My first thought is a deer or…

  • Suffering Well

    I don’t know what you’re seeing in your lives right now but in my world there are a lot of hurting people! Some are hurting emotionally over personal losses. Some are struggling due to severe financial burdens. Others are angry with God and have stopped trusting Him. And others are having a variety of troubles…

  • Inadequate

    Hey everyone! I know, I know. I haven’t blogged forever! But here’s the interesting part: I’ve actually started several blogs but never posted them. Why? I realized it was spiritual warfare! Every time I’d write something I thought, “Man, people are going to think that’s stupid.” I got self-conscious about how people would receive what…

  • 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…

  • Halloween

    Hey everyone! So, I haven’t blogged in FOREVER because I really haven’t had much to say to be honest. However, today is Halloween and I’ve noticed in the Christian community there are two schools of thought: Where do you stand on this? Like everything in life, the truth is usually found somewhere in the middle…

  • Fight the Fight!

    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…

  • What is Sin?

    Woke up early this morning – 0430 – with my dogs ready for their breakfast. Got up and a thought hit me: What is sin? The next thought that hit me was of a buddy of mine who is an actual by gum pagan! He told me that in his belief system there is no…

  • Satan’s Schemes

    Hey everyone! I’m sitting at my computer this morning a bit agitated from reading the news and my social media feeds. Perhaps I’ve not drunk enough Bang (energy drink) yet but something in me is compelling me to write this morning and I think it’s going to be one of those unpopular blogs. So, in…

  • Like everyone else, I’m reeling this morning over the killing of 19 kids and two teachers at the Uvalde, TX elementary school. It seems as if everyone is weighing in on the tragedy from the President (who’s comments were poignant) to news talking heads to pro sports figures to celebrities to average Janes and Joes…

  • Truth in Love

    I posted a meme on Facebook yesterday that drew some interesting discussion. Here is what it said: Secular Person: I want to do X. Christian: You’re free to do it. Secular Person: But you think X is wrong. Christian: Yes. Secular Person: Because you want to control me. Christian: No, You’re free to do whatever…
