Man.....damn. I've already done it. Let's start again. Wow, self reflection and inner work is really hard. Sometimes it is easy, and most of the time it is not. I have learned that when you really start digging deep into yourself it gets really scary really fast. It feels like a darkness you can't see … Continue reading Who Am I?
Where Has The Time Gone?
Holy cow. No one warned me that having children will drastically cut down on your free time. And your energy for that matter. When 6pm rolls around, I am white knuckling it until toddler bedtime so I can lay in my bed and lose 2-3hrs on TikTok. Anyway, hello there! It's been a minute since … Continue reading Where Has The Time Gone?
Sick of It (Sunday Evening Rant)
Wear a mask. Please wear your freaking mask. Wear a damn mask. Wear a gd mask. Wear an effing mask. Are we ignorant a-holes? Apparently we are. Sermon this morning at church, virtual church, made mention of a study done on prayer. Yeah yeah, hold your horses. I know things get weird when churches turn … Continue reading Sick of It (Sunday Evening Rant)
It’s Father’s Day, But It’s Not Happy
I always saw those posts on Facebook. The ones that are Happy Father's Day to my Dad in heaven, or what have you. I always said, man that sucks. I always wondered how that must feel for folks. No, my dad is not gone. He is still kickin' around. But my grandpa is gone. This … Continue reading It’s Father’s Day, But It’s Not Happy
Christianity and Corona
Watching the news lately, or even just listening to it stresses me out. It also ticks me off. Seeing the country in a state of chaos where people’s lives have no meaning to someone else is just baffling to me. It’s especially baffling when I see self proclaimed Christian folk tell people to eff off. … Continue reading Christianity and Corona
Ears, Tears, and van Gogh
"Ouch! Don't do that!" I heard my wife yelling from upstairs. A few minutes later, she came walking into the kitchen rubbing her ear. "Tyson did a real number on me," she said confirming that our 16 month old still had mad chomping skills. "Right? That was Mike Tyson and Holyfield, right?", she asked. "Yes," … Continue reading Ears, Tears, and van Gogh
God and Gun Control
This morning, some one was waving. I made a remark to my wife that it looked spastic for a wave. Like they were crossing themselves. She in turn said, "And the people of God said...." Leaving it open for me to finish with the accepted "Amen." I did not. Instead what came to my mind … Continue reading God and Gun Control
Pride Month
June is Pride Month. What does that mean? Well, it is a time the LGBTQ+ celebrate themselves. Why would they want to do that? Well why not? Who doesn't love a parade? But really, why would they do this? Well, maybe you have been living under a rock or legitimately don't understand it so I'll … Continue reading Pride Month
Hello? God? Are you there?
So, here's the thing. I have a problem with God. Well, not God, but what people try to tell me about Him. In all honesty, I'm not even sure, when I say "God", what that even means. But for now, lets go with "God"="Christian God"="Dude with white beard". Good? Okay. Now, back to my problem. I … Continue reading Hello? God? Are you there?
No Data Needed
So, here's the thing. I started this blog as a way to explore my thoughts and experiences about my theology and life. I have so many thoughts run through my head each day and I think, "I should blog about this." Do I? Nope. Why not? Well, I find it really hard to just sit … Continue reading No Data Needed
