I was listening to a pastor explaining why additional Bible study classes were necessary for those looking to go beyond a surface understanding of the scripture. He said there were of many new people and new Christians in the Sunday morning services and they didn't have the preparation for some of d…

Unexpected Consequences
Often when event takes place, it triggers a whole string of other events – some expected, and some come completely as a surprise. For instance, when satan saw Jesus teaching about the kingdom of God, performing miracles with many people following Him, he did everything he could to stop the Son of Go…
Dangerous Times
Having been around to remember the assassination of John Kennedy and his brother Bobby, Martin Luther King Jr, Medgar Evers and Malcolm X, and now, Charlie Kirk along with multiple attempts on President Trump's life as well as attacks on innocent school children, it appears that things that just d…
What is Really Real?
A short time before his passing, Hulk Hogan gave an interview where he talked about the reality of the spiritual world and the illusion of reality in the physical world. When I was a young man, I heard this from several people but really did not comprehend what they were telling me. Many people toda…
No Dignity in a Hospital Gown
A few weeks ago I spent a glorious week in Clearwater FL. My room had a great view of the intracoastal waterway and Clearwater Beach. Unfortunately since I was in Morton Plant Hospital for triple bypass surgery, I didn't have the opportunity to enjoy it very often. The people there were first class …
Pushing the envelope... of honesty
After the thrilling finish of this year's Indianapolis 500 ever intrusive television camera's found second place finisher, Marcus Ericsson, quietly weeping for coming with one second of winning the big prize. This emotional response, especially when the margin is slight, comes about when you have th…
Giving Up on a Hero
When I was in Junior High School, like many of us in the late fifties and early sixties, I was fascinated by the thought of space travel. Along with several class mates we built large scale models of the rockets we were reading about in the papers and magazines. On May 5, 1961 we all filed in to the…
Good Times Don't Last Forever
I was sitting listening to my Pandora channel of old time rock'n roll. Thankful that I grew up in a simpler, happier time. No computers, no cell phones. Happy, feel good music on the AM radio as I cruised down Broad St in my Tri-Power Pontiac. My needs were simple and I had pretty much everything a …
It's Not Just About the Money
The lefties are weeping and wailing about the work Elon Musk is doing to remove wasteful spending from the national budget. They are complaining that his work is a threat to democracy. They may have a point if the American people voted for and were on board with spending our tax money on transgender…
New Year, New You
While a new year is a good time to draw a line in the sand and determine to do things differently, a page on a calendar is not usually sufficient motivation to make basic changes in one's life. The gyms and health clubs across the nation are packed with well meaning people hoping to develop a health…
What is Christmas?
Christmas celebrates the birth of a child. The fact is that the actual birth took place sometime around the middle of March, but the important point is that this child is born. His birth was predicted hundreds of years before, and wise men, astrologers, who watched the movements of the planets and s…
Memories of a High School Senior – 11/22/63
Coming up on November 22, I believed this was something I should share.
Like most everyone who was around on November 22, 1963 I have vivid memories of that day. I was a senior in math class being taught by a student teacher named Craig Svanos. Midway through the period someone stuck their h…
What Does the Left Have Against Christians?
Apologists for the progressive/socialist/communist left will tell us they have nothing against people following their Christian religion, or Jewish religion or even their Muslim religion... as long as they do it in the privacy of their own home. They are the most adamant proponents of the mythical “…
Resisted, Reviled and Rejected
The story of Robert Kennedy Jr is a sad tale of what happens when a man who is part of a family that was once considered Democrat royalty chooses to follow a path guided by common sense and a concept of right and wrong. What we have seen is proof of the statement that neither his uncle nor his fathe…
Death of a Spy
Known as the “godfather of mass surveillance”, James Angleton got his start in the spy business with the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) during World War II. However before that, his father bought a business and relocated the family to Milan, Italy. As a young man he developed a love of poetry an…
Olympic Injustice
Italian boxer Angela Carini's dreams were stolen by a male masquerading as a woman. She lost her opportunity and this tough guy beat up a girl. The Olympic Committee said they wanted everyone to feel welcome and accepted... meaning this intruder into woman's sports had to be accepted. Well, Ms Carin…
An Expected Tragedy
It was difficult watching the video of President Trump being shot at by someone who may have thought he was doing the right thing based on the hate filled rhetoric that is flooding our news and opinion shows on television and social media. We rejoiced that he was not seriously wounded, but then wept…
Good Man, Not So Good Father
This is a sad story about one of God's most favored people. Many people know the story of how David's son Absolom attempted to usurp the throne and replace his father as King of Israel. However, there is much more to the story and, while Absolom should not be excused, it is helpful to look deeper in…
God Is Not A Republican
Many people believe that God has a special favor for the Republican Party. Some like to think any action they take will have His divine blessing. Even some Democrats believe there is a religious element in conservative efforts to emphasize the individual freedom over socialistic welfare. Of course t…
Hate and Anger in Academia
Some people get ahead of themselves. They think that because they began to study something they are suddenly an expert. For instance, I knew a couple engineering students who already called themselves “engineers”. I hate when they do that. You don't see pre-med students going around calling them…
