Do You Practice What You Preach?
[For the second time in a very short period of time I find myself breaking one of my primary rules for a fixed length BLOG and making a long post (about 2.6 times longer than my average). I realize that your time is a precious commodity and that time spent on one resource (on the…

Do You Count The Cost?
There is a house just a couple of miles up the road from where my wife and I live. It is a house that has sat almost fully built for several years. Here is that house on Google Maps: 87-2182 Farrington Hwy – Google Maps. A closer image: Farrington Hwy – Google Maps. This home…

Are You “Woke”?
There is a prevailing movement alive today, that (supposedly) started a few short years ago, and purports to be ‘alert to racial prejudice and discrimination’ (see this Wikipedia article). This movement is the WOKE movement and in reality, it is just another “ME” movement. A “ME” movement is how I like to refer to movements…

Is Jesus Christ God?
The other day I was watching this video on YouTube: It is an hour and forty-one minutes long, however there are some very interesting questions asked with some perspectives given from both a Jewish point of view, and from the point of view of a Gentile. A gentile is easy to define as they are…

Have You Heard The Voice?
Have you seen the NBC show The Voice? If you have, you are (kind of) one up on me because I have not watched even one episode (at least not a complete episode). What I have watched however are quite a few YouTube compilations of the “best” auditions (at least in the opinion of those…

So, You Want to Be Free?
Remember when Queen told us this (and yes, this is the official music video – just so you know what they wanted to break free from): The song, released on April 2nd, 1984 (missing April Fool’s Day by one day, in a rather ironic twist) tells us they want to break free as if they…

Is America At War?
Why was Jesus Christ crucified on the cross? And yes, I know, because He is the Son of God and He gave up His life at the will of the Father in order to pay for the sins of the world that you and I might be saved. But what reason was put forth at…

Which Side Are You On?
Yesterday I passed along my thoughts on the two different cultures manifesting themselves in America today. I said that I didn’t have a question, only an observation, but that was not entirely accurate. I do have a question. The point of the observations, naturally, was to cause you to consider which culture you fit into…

A Tale Of Two Cultures
In 1859 Charles Dickens wrote the historical novel A Tale of Two Cities. A story centered around London England and Paris France before/during the French Revolution. It has been referred to as the best selling novel of all time (and certainly must be in the top 10, assuming it is even taught in schools these…

How Do I Know If You Trust Jesus?
The other day in my last blog post I talked about people at the George Floyd protests carrying No Justice No Peace signs (as those found here) and I mentioned how ridiculous I find that slogan. I also mentioned these people don’t know peace and that peace dependent upon justice is worthless peace. But I…
