After a long and sensational ordeal of witnessing the wrestling match between God’s miraculous power and the stubborn heart of Pharaoh, the Israelite people have finally been led by God out their bondage of cruel slavery in Egypt. He chose Moses, an imperfect knucklehead, so that all would know Who had really delivered them. After [...]

Ever get into a funky place where you seem restless, irritable, and discontent? Well, I do. Sometimes for long stretches, I am sad to say. And I have found that when I get into one of these grouchy seasons, there is one question that lurks at the heart of the murkiness. It is a terrible [...]

Thanks to my buddy, Hans, for the title of this post. Men of the Baton Rouge area (and beyond), it’s here. The kickoff of a new season! Men are suiting up and showing up for battle to show what they are made of, and to take their game to a higher level this year. That’s [...]

Here’s Shep – enjoying his new “big boy” room for the first time. A fresh coat of blue paint (what I’m calling “Rubbermaid Blue”) picked out by him and a new comfy lounging/reading chair have transformed his space into something fit for…well, a big boy. How he got here was a good life and faith [...]

Thanks to Laura Story for sharing this beautiful and challenging song that expresses something I have reflected on for several years now.
