It's Sunday morning and I'm up and showered, had a cup of coffee and working on a second one. Chris is still sleeping so I'm keeping it quiet in the hotel room of the Stonecrest Motel in Piedmont MO.It's not often that I spend the night before preaching going over the sermon in my head, but for some reason this was one of those rare occasions. I'm sure that I managed a complete sleep cycle (or maybe two) during the night so I'll be fine this morning. An equally rare Sunday afternoon nap may find its way into my immediate future. This morning's...

What Will You Talk About on Monday?
Posted on 21:18 by Unknown
Sunday afternoon found me at Ozark Highlands Church (OHC) to talk to a small group of followers of Jesus about sharing their faith. This was a day that I was really looking forward to.I really love Pastor Mark and his heart for Jesus. I enjoy the conversations we have and sense his great love for our Lord and his concern for those that do not know Jesus.In my post on The Downside of Bible Study, I mentioned about our lack of urgency to share the gospel with the people that we know and love and are living lives apart from Jesus. I wrote about...

Sad, Bad, Mad.
Posted on 05:47 by Unknown
I haven't posted in a while. I'm trying to refrain from writing when I feel like I might spill over into the political fray and cause more division than good. Even though this post might only skirt the political issues, it jumps into the religious crap with both high-booted feet!I commented to my boss the other day that it makes me sad to think how often we have our flag at half staff these days. I mean it's good that we honor those that have given their lives serving our country; it's just sad that so many are making that sacrifice.The latest...

Questions on Sin...
Posted on 16:39 by Unknown
First things first...I know that there are a number of regular readers that never comment. That's okay, but I would really like for your feedback on this post. If you don't want your comments posted, just say so and I won't post them or you can send me a private message via Facebook or e-mail.I also know that my readership has dropped off quite a bit in the past year. (Obviously there are a number of former readers that have decided that they no longer care to read my drivel. Not a big surprise.)But since I'm interested to know how people of all...

Book topic ... ?
Posted on 10:56 by Unknown
Every now and then I begin reconsidering the subject of book writing. As a matter of fact, I have a couple of collections of random thoughts assembled and stored "in the cloud" in case I should ever get really motivated to "write a book" and need a topic.Recently, I've given thought to writing about being a follower of Jesus (Christian in the specific sense, not the generic sense) and being a social liberal. I choose to specify 'social' liberal because I don't consider myself to be a fiscal liberal, nor a moral liberal (although, I know plenty...

Feelin' Good About the US of A!
Posted on 11:26 by Unknown
For those days when you just need a feel good story...Amid the stories of politicians, conventions, mall shootings, theater shootings, and so many others that tend to make daily living something to endure rather than something to enjoy, it's nice to be able to share a story like this one.I saw the it on Facebook and before sharing it, I decided to see what Snopes had to say about it.You should read the original and the Snopes background.Every now and then, in the middle of the constant barrage of crap that’s just pissing us all off these days,...
