The Purpose Driven Life: A Critique (part 1)
Prelude Before I get into content, I thought I’d state what this study is not about. First, it’s not about arguing the basic premise, “purpose driven”. It just wouldn’t make sense. I mean, who wouldn’t want to know their purpose? And in knowing that purpose, who wouldn’t want to achieve it? Secondly, it’s not about […]
The Crisis of Toxic Leadership
What we have going on right now in Washington DC is nothing short of a clown show. As Trump has said, “Our enemies don’t fear us, and our friends don’t trust us.” It’s a crisis of toxic leadership. As the leaders go, so too the rest of the nation. I’m going to endeavor to give […]
No Words (part II)
As we saw in part one, there are “no words”, words that you can no longer speak; politically incorrect words, and words that have a contrived new meaning. What I’d like to draw your attention to now are words in certain languages that simply do not exist. In her book, “While Time Remains”, Yeonmi […]
“No” Words (part I)
A lot of people today are afraid to say what they feel about certain subjects. There are just certain words and phrases that are simply off limits, even if it’s the truth; especially if it’s the truth. Speaking or writing the truth can make your life difficult. It all depends on what words you use. […]
Mad World Rising: Part 2 (Fighting Back)
Well, it should be most obvious by now that we are in a war. Albeit a spiritual war with real world ramifications. We see the results of such all around us. For example, the war on free speech, the war on the rights of parents, the war on the traditional family, the war on the […]
Mad World Rising
If you’ve been paying any attention to the news lately, you’d realize that something is terribly wrong. Yes, there has always been news stories that would shock our collective sensibilities. Ever since Cain murdered his brother Abel people have been doing evil things to each other. Murder, rape robbery, child abuse, etc. Although, as a […]
And He Gave Them Power
Did you know that the believer in Christ has power over demonic spirits? According to Mark 16:17 “and these signs shall follow them that believe; in my name they shall cast out devils.” Another translation says, “demons.” Notice the words “shall follow”, it means it’s to be a common occurring sign of those who believe […]
East Of Eden (part I)
Drag Queens, LGBTQ++, transgender obsession, pornography in our public school system, gender confusion; children given puberty blockers and life altering sex change surgeries. Attacks on the traditional family, patriotism, traditional morals and biblical values, conservatism, traditional religion, Christians and capitalism. Add to this, DEI, the need for pronouns to signify what sexual orientation one identifies […]
Donald in The Lion’s Den
On May 10th, 2023, former President Donald Trump participated in a New Hampshire CNN sponsored Town Hall. It was meant to be a trap. A “gotcha” moment televised to over 3 million viewers. And the “moderator”, Kaitlan Collins, came loaded for bear! Most of the questions seemed like they were more from Mrs. Collins, and […]
A Drag on Society
It all started when I received an email from the president of a local conservative group here in New Braunfels, Texas. They were planning on protesting a church here that was promoting a “family friendly” drag show Saturday night. So, I thought I would go and show my support. I was also curious. I wondered […]
