Sorry, my sarcasm sensor does not always function adequately. Blessings.

Thank you for your question. On the one hand, because created us as social mammals, our basic instincts are to be self-centered, lusting after selfish desires and rationalizing behavior that will fulfill those desires. On the other hand, God created us in His image, so that He could...

Thank you for your post. Help me understand your comment better. Are we owed “free“ health care? (Meaning, someone else, like a rich person, needs to pay for our health care?) As Christians, we are called to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, shelter the stranger, clothe the naked...

Thank you for your post. It is significant that at the Communion Table we partake of bread and wine, and not “granola” (roasted grain) and juice. Seeds and grapes even animals eat, but being made in the image of God, we are promised more. From grain to bread requires inspiration from, and...

Thank you for the post. Blessings.

Thank you for your heartfelt post. The both of you are blest—he by a long life and a child who honors him; you by your compassion. Cherish each day. God will supply you both with your needs. As always, pray for guidance and understanding. Blessings.

Thank you for your observations. There is no reason for Christians to want to “escape” with drugs that deliberately alter one’s mental state. But yes, some do offer beneficial pain relief (although addiction can be a problem). Thus, it might be argued that laws restricting such drugs are...

Thanks for posting. What does Persecution Rank #18 mean? Are there 17 other countries where Christian persecution is even worse? Blessings.

The Babylon Bee loves to poke balloons with sharp objects. https://babylonbee.com/news/disgruntled-churchgoers-hold-up-protest-paddles/ Blessings.

Thank you for the delightful summary of your wonderful experience. However: one phrase caught my eye— Indeed, many Americans do behave like basic social mammals, but here and there, in the Christian community, you will find many like her. Re Tennessee: aha—a soft-spoken Southern woman, one of...

Amen. ”Music needs to be chosen by the Lord”! Absolutely Right. He has never let me down when I have asked for inspiration regarding music for a service. And: We pray that all who attended your service left with spirits fed and ready to do His will. Peace.

Thanks for your inspiring post. Regarding choices of songs: services are centered on thanks to God for blessings received and prayers for particular, timely blessings. The guest speaker will remind the congregation of God’s expectations and promises for us. The primary purpose of the music...

“Go ahead stick your head in the sand”?!? This type of interchange is common on X and (so I am told) Bluesky. We may disagree, but can we do so as good Christians? The goal of zero tariffs was championed by Milton Friedman, who said that citizens of a country are better served by the...

A new presidential executive order declares English to be America’s official language. Clearly, long overdue. Consider the follow verses from The Ballad of Davy Crocket: Born on a mountain top in Tennessee Greenest state in the land of the free Raised in the woods so's he knew every tree...

Thank you for your comments. It is kind of you to be concerned about increased costs for U.S. customers when tariffs are imposed. Of course Canada already imposes tariffs on some U.S. goods, such as dairy products, which should make you angry with your government. President Trump’s...

Thanks for posting. Two different perspectives: what is best for the country versus what is best for a political party (and each party member: power, prestige, wealth leached from taxpayers, . . . ). Note also: one party says our government is a servant of the people, and should give priority...

Thank you all for your comments. Here is a related set of incidents followed by questions. There have been a number of self-videos lately, mostly from young women who are often federal employees, complaining about the expectations the new administration has for their continued employment. The...
