The Holy Family. I’m talking about none other than the Virgin named Mary, Joseph her husband and the Child called Christ. And I guess the fourth important lesson the Holy Family affords us (the first lesson in A ‘God’ Thing, the second lesson in Marriage Made in Heaven and the third lesson in The Least […]
Swept Away by the Dawn Treader
December 9, 2010 by
If you’ve had the chance to read any of The Chronicles of Narnia books by C. S. Lewis (there are seven in all), you’ll know there are many different ways to enter that magical land. In The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, it’s the latter (a closet of coats) that’s the entry point. In […]
The Least Likely Place (redux)
December 6, 2010 by
The Holy Family. I’m talking about none other than the Virgin named Mary, Joseph her husband and the Child called Christ. And I guess the third important lesson the Holy Family affords us (the first lesson in A ‘God’ Thing and the second lesson in Marriage Made in Heaven) is this: Let’s not overlook what […]
They Didn’t Care
December 2, 2010 by
They didn’t care. They really didn’t. The two of them. They didn’t care where they were. They didn’t care if it was cold or warm. They didn’t care if it was night or day. They didn’t care if they were dressed poorly or richly. They didn’t care if they had little or much. They didn’t […]
Marriage Made in Heaven (redux)
November 30, 2010 by
The Holy Family. I’m talking about none other than the Virgin named Mary, Joseph her husband and the Child called Christ. And I guess the second important lesson the Holy Family affords us (the first lesson in A ‘God’ Thing) is this: Marriage is between a man and a man or a woman and a […]
A “God” Thing (redux)
November 27, 2010 by
The Holy Family. I’m talking about none other than the Virgin named Mary, Joseph her husband and the Child called Christ. And I guess the first important lesson the Holy Family affords us is this: Be careful. That thing you’re being critical of just might be a “God” thing. And when you really think about […]
The Day The Twitter Earth Stood Still (redux)
July 23, 2010 by
One year ago the unthinkable happened. (July 23, 2009) No, my house didn’t burn down, I didn’t have a heart attack, none of those scary things. It was worse (tongue in cheek). I turned my laptop on like usual, but there was something missing. Just short of 22,000 Twitter followers to be exact. (And it […]
Spin Zone – Part 2
March 27, 2010 by
With Jesus standing before him, Pilate asked the question, “What is truth?” And it was because Pilate lived in a day much like our own, I’m convinced, where we just don’t know what to believe anymore since it isn’t always the case that we can trust what we’re being told. Right? We literally live in […]
Spin Zone – Part 1
March 24, 2010 by
Many years ago Pilate asked Jesus the question, “What is truth?” And Pilate asked that question, I’m convinced, because he lived in a day much like our own – where we just don’t know what to believe anymore. Do you ever find yourself feeling like that? And as everything that happens and everything that’s talked […]
Messiah Complex
March 18, 2010 by
Nice guy. Perfect family. Cares for others. Attends church. Good speaker, too. Quality characteristics. We all would agree. Except when they’re combined with (spell it): P-R-I-D-E ~ Pride. Evil seldom presents itself without a cloak. (If it did, who would buy into it?) I’m talking about the “Messiah complex” in particular. The above 5 characteristics […]
