Rewind Wednesday: 42 is Not the Answer
Last week, the blog celebrated its one-year anniversary and in year two I plan to recycle some old posts. Why not start with the very first post? The post is linked at the bottom. “42 is Not the Answer” was first posted on May 20, 2021 and is still my most-viewed post ever. Re-reading it … Continue reading “Rewind Wednesday: 42 is Not the Answer”
Finding Port for the Good Ship Ambivalent
From yesterday’s post, you’ll know I am reading King’s X: The Oral History, a book chronicling the history of the rock band King’s X, by Greg Prato. Yesterday, I dove into one of their more bizarre and unknown songs, but today is about the band’s biggest hit. “It’s Love” got to “#6 on Billboard’s Mainstream … Continue reading “Finding Port for the Good Ship Ambivalent”
Do You Have a Caged-Up Gorilla in Your Trunk?
I’ve been a fan of the rock band King’s X for many years and am currently reading King’s X: The Oral History, a book by Greg Prato that chronicles the history of the band entirely through quotes from the band, those who have worked with the band, music journalists, and other musicians.

The Transfiguration: A Preview of Glory and Delight
Last week I posted about Psalm 36:8, where David thanks God that His people may “drink from the river of your delights.” Since the word for “delights” is the plural of Eden, these occasional sips God provides us point to a past and future paradise. These delights strengthen our hope of heaven and strengthen us … Continue reading “The Transfiguration: A Preview of Glory and Delight”
Social Media is Full of Absurdities
Social media is a great place to share short bursts of pontification, whether in memes, quips, quotes, or what have you. Sometimes a little more research may do some good, though. Several times recently I’ve seen the quote below shared by people protesting what they see as people in power playing loose with Covid data … Continue reading “Social Media is Full of Absurdities”
The Law of the Medes and Persians Has Been Revoked
During the Old Testament book of Daniel, God’s people were in exile in Babylon, and a group of Babylonian officials really wanted to make a point. They wanted to do this so badly, that it’s recorded several times in just a few verses of the book of Daniel, chapter 6: Verse 8: “Now, O king, … Continue reading “The Law of the Medes and Persians Has Been Revoked”
Let God Speak to Your Inner Wilderness
I’ve written recently about John the Baptist[1], who announced the coming of Jesus, baptized Him, and led the way for His ministry to begin. This John was identified with “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make his paths straight’”[2] prophesied by Isaiah. Today I want to describe … Continue reading “Let God Speak to Your Inner Wilderness”
Coming Soon to a Theater Near You
Have you ever watched a movie that was much worse than what the trailer for it led you to expect? Were scenes taken out of context, giving you the wrong impression? Was every good scene from the movie already in the trailer, leaving you disappointed? Every now and then, God gives us a preview of … Continue reading “Coming Soon to a Theater Near You”
