The Wandering Heart
Infidelity. Cheating. Affair. Adultery. Not uncommon words in our society. Possibly not uncommon in our life experience. One set of statistics I looked at claimed 30 to 60 percent of marriages have at least one partner who has been involved in an extramarital affair. Extramarital. Even the word doesn’t make sense. Marriage is a covenant…

Educated Fool
I’m really not out to make anyone mad with this post. Honestly, I’m not. I’m not anti-education. I’m not anti-school, anti-learning, or anti-study. I am anti-stupidity, anti-ignorance, and anti-anything that would hinder someone from a genuine walk of faith. Faith in Jesus. Some folks don’t get it. But it’s nothing new. It was that way…

Sloppy Joe Christians
I just love Sloppy Joes. Do you? There are a number of ways to make them. Here’s just one that I found on the Internet. Take a couple pounds of 93% lean hamburger, and mix in some onion, catsup, brown sugar, garlic, green pepper, salt, ground black pepper, mustard, and (if you really want to…

Craigslist Christianity
One can find just about anything on Craigslist. Boats, cars, guitars, keyboards, pool tables, and lots of other stuff. Why, you can even find people on Craigslist. I’m not lying. Most of what you’ll see advertised are used items; things no longer wanted or needed by the seller. Things the seller has no more use…

The Anointing Is Missing
Something’s missing. I realize people may think I’m a goofball for saying this, but I’ll say it anyway. Something’s missing. When I tell you what it is you may try and correct me by telling me I should have said “SomeONE” is missing; because the Spirit of God is a Person. What’s missing? The Anointing…

Get Mad
Let me ask you a simple, hopefully non-threatening, question. Okay? Have you ever been so mad at someone, for whatever reason, that you stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind you? Yes? Great! No, it’s not great that you lost your temper, broke the door, and scared the daylights out of every one…

Delusional Strongholds
There’s a fine line between perception and delusion. One definition of perception is: “the way you think about or understand someone or something.” Delusion, on the other hand, is: “a belief that is not true : a false idea.” What happens when a person perceives something as truth, and ignores every ounce of evidence which…

Civil Rebellion
One of my favorite movies is the first National Treasure, with Nicolas Cage. I don’t know how many times I’ve watched it. At least a dozen, I’m sure. I especially like the part where Ben and Riley are looking at the Declaration of Independence, and Ben tells Riley he’s going to steal it. Ben, reading…

Sex and Love
SEX. It’s used to sell clothes, coffee, cars, and sometimes certain celebrities. Or maybe magazines, movies, and makeup. Some folks just plain use it. To some, it’s a pry bar, others as a treat for good behavior. Kind of like training a dog to learn a trick; once they get it down they are rewarded…

Uncle Sam Weeps
watch video of song – Uncle Sam Weeps UNCLE SAM WEEPS by Jan L. Grace In this land of the free and the home of the brave, Kneels an old ragged man with his banner to wave And he weeps, Holding those Colors, the red white and blue, With hands rough and worn…
