Have you noticed the prevailing winds? That a deep feeling of dislike of average folks has hatched? I'm not speaking of calling Trump voters "deplorables." That was real, but it was more like a distraction or a slip of a forked tongue. What is happening is more insidious. It's been gradual, subtle, and calculated. Are …
I'm writing again. I had planned for a respite but the stillness had me thinking it might fatally end my desire to write. When I don't write I read or watch lectures, listen to sermons, or consider the pontifications of my friends and deep thinkers. When I head down this path I usually get lost. …
What would it be like if nobody spoke evil of dignities (yes, I meant "dignities"; persons or things worthy of honor and respect); that there are politicians and leaders worthy of respect and honor.That we would conscientiously honor and obey them, and all that are put in authority under them; I mean showing all fidelity, …
I recently overheard someone say to another, "He's gone religious on me," as if they had done a bad thing. I suppose this happens to many of us when we come to faith in Jesus Christ. We lose a few beer drinking friends and are talked about behind our backs. But getting the title "Religious" …

I suppose a spoiled crop or …
There was a time when I watched television and went to the movies. I enjoyed television cartoons, sitcoms, and even the news. Fantasy, futuristic, cowboy, and manly movies were cool too.
