This is one of those timey-whimey subjects that my husband and I love to discuss, and that I find quite interesting to kick around. The thought is basically this; God is in all times at once, He is in the past right now, as He is with me in the present in this exact moment. [...]

“Making the blanket fit;” via Dead Poets Society…
One of my all time favorite movies is Dead Poets Society. It is actually one of the reasons I enjoy teaching so much, and gave it a try in the first place. If you’ve never seen it; shame on you. On to the point; there is a scene where Keating is trying to [...]

Movie Review; The Invisible…
Yeah, I know, it was released in 07, but I just watched it, so deal with it.
I haven’t watched a movie in a long time that makes me think about it after I’ve shut the DVD player off. This one actually stuck with me and made me ponder what the filmmakers included in [...]

Jason Castro’s testimony…
Here’s Jason’s testimony, yes, he’s one of the contestants from last year’s American Idol. His bro made it through to Hollywood this season as well. I always enjoy hearing people talk about music and Christian spirituality…

First, I have to admit that [...]

Lives change…
It’s a fact. Just like the weather, lives change. Our existence shifts and morphs, part of the consequences of being time-bound. Sometimes the sun is shining and it is a beautiful, balmy day…then the rains come.
Oftentimes it is while we are in the middle of a storm that we need to remember that [...]

Does God have a sense of humor?
This question comes up both in serious and lighthearted conversations quite a bit. I always answer with, “Yes, I believe He does.” Now, we have to be careful and not “see” God as human, in the sense that He is so far above mere “human” status that He is indeed fundamentally different than us (not [...]

“Global Warming,” just another human ego trip?
I caught the ending to a show about global warming on TV and got a hoot out of one person’s comment. It went something like, “we’ve got to realize that our generation has the fate of the whole world in it’s hands, etc… etc…” Now, this person was apparently serious and I don’t believe that [...]

Human beings; neither angels nor demons…
I’ve been thinking on something recently; and that something is the tendency of humans to either put other humans on pedestals, or else so far in the dirt as to not warrant a second thought. We tend to bestow some kind of odd sainthood on some, whilst having extreme negative feelings toward others. I believe [...]
