More on Guns, Plus Diversity and Common Ground
President Obama once stirred up controversy by deriding those of us who "cling to our guns and religion." He's free to have whatever bias he wants regarding conservatives, which he might see as backwards people. We live in an age where we can be victims in an instant....
Guns in Sanctuaries
BREAKING NEWS: On Sunday, a gunman killed two people during a morning worship service at a church in White Settlement before members of the congregation security team fatally shot him, authorities say. I'm so sorry to learn that the second victim has died. This was a...
Never Again
My "gal pal in escape weekends" is visiting Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum in Cambodia with her daughter. I read up on it, and I'm disgusted at humanity. It reminded me that we NEED TO FIGHT FOR OUR FREEDOM! It's too easy to be swayed by wanting others to take care of our...
The Vilification of Laura Daigle
I recently saw a reposting of an article from Reformation Charlotte which basically excoriated Ms. Daigle for preaching a false gospel. The gist of it is this: she shared God's love for prisoners while visiting a prison without also teaching that we must repent and...

My friend's son died by suicide. She's grappling with it. Publicly and heart wrenchingly on Facebook. Recently, she asked: If God answers prayers, and we’ve proven that he does, and I begged and pleaded with God to heal Joseph, but his healing was to return him to...
Love in Disagreement
We can't make the mistake of thinking that agreement is a sign of acceptance. It's not. You can accept someone, and not agree with them on everything. Likewise, we can't think that because a friend voted for a politician, liked a celebrity or befriended another person...
One Moment…
One moment you're posting a cute dog picture on fb and the next, you're not here. A high school connection of mine passed away quite suddenly. It's always shocking when it's unexpected and a peer. So, savor every sweet moment in life! Even the not-so-sweet ones!...
The Enemy’s Playground
Vote Democrat. Vote Republican. But, don't tell me that one is "godly" or more "loving." There's no perfect politician, no perfect person, only Jesus. Wrapping up energy in fighting against one politician or the other, or one political fight or the other, is the...
