Really?

I did not know that. No one told me. Why didn’t you say something? I have said all of these, and other versions of them. I hear about something, thinking it’s the first time anyone has ever talked about it when I was around, and want an answer. The thing is, I very likely was […]


Common Sense for Success

When I first looked at the title of “The Book of Common Sense for a Successful Life”, I missed the “for a Successful Life” part. I thought it would be a different type of book, but it turned out OK. “The Book of Common Sense for a Successful Life” is written to give the readers […]


My Awesomeness

It’s all in my head, the awesomeness. I’m sure you could find someone who will tell you that I am good at something, a few could even do it with a straight face. But when you take all that I can and can’t do and average them together, I am, in fact, average. I admit […]


Unstuck

Unstuck, by Arnie Cole and Michael Ross is a great book, and really explains how to get through a problem all of us face at some point. What? You mean you want more? Um, OK. All of us enter a time in our Christian walk where we seem to be caught in a mud puddle. […]


Ex-cuses

It’s so easy to complain. The TV show is terrible, the news is always bad, this porridge that I’m mooching is too hot. I cannot say that I am complaint free, but I can still voice what I think, because I’m going to be talking to myself as much as anyone else. It is “natural” […]


Coming Apart

Coming Apart, The State of White America, 1960-2010 is a long read. Not so much because of its length, but because of the information it holds. Charles Murray did a thorough job of researching, and then relating how one segment of America changed from how they started, to how they are now. Though whites are […]


You Can’t See Me

I was driving home on the interstate recently and had to pass through a construction zone. They weren’t actively working that day, but the signs reducing the speed from 70 to 55 were still up. And I seem to have been the only one that was running 55. That got me to thinking (the fact […]


Moonblood

When I first looked at Moonblood, I did not realize that it was considered a romance book. I found that out when I read the back cover. I’m not a romance book type, so I was a little wary of the story at that point. I started reading it, and the wariness became unfounded. Yes, […]


New prayer app

I came up with a new app for smartphones, and maybe even as a standalone device. I want to call it iAYE, but there may be complications. I believe it will revolutionize the way people pray. All you do is speak or type your prayer request, and you get an instantaneous “YES!” Imagine, do matter […]


Asher of Bethlehem

We know the story of the Nativity quite well, that Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary in Bethlehem. What about the events that surrounded and led up to His birth? What occurred then? That is where Asher of Bethlehem takes up the story. The book is prefaced with an introduction that explains it being […]
