Good Feelings Come From Good Thoughts…

  • 6 min read

The above title may appear intuitive and certainly not worthy of a blog. However, I would have to disagree in that there appears to be a dearth of people actually making the connection. People spend the day engaged in dark, negative thoughts and then report feeling depressed. Folks run all manner of fearful considerations through… 

Is Truth Relative?

  • 8 min read

Is truth relative? Many people, in an attempt to be inclusive perhaps, conclude that what is true for you might not be true for me and the reverse. But, can something that is true actually be not true? Does truth depend upon the circumstances or conditions? Would something that is inherently true possibly be not… 

Take it by Faith Brother…

  • 9 min read

There’s a saying amongst religious folk that decries, “Take it by faith brother.” What it implies is that the things of God don’t really make any sense or follow any specific pattern of logic. Now, just consider that for a moment. Is it logical to you that God is perfect; His originally given Word was… 

Life is Short…

I know you have seen the memes. I know you have read the stories. Life is short, eat the cookies. It seems so trite. It’s something everyone seems to say. Usually used to make some allowance for this or for that. But, at the end of the day, life is short, very short. Before you…

Everywhere you look there is something negative vying for your attention and more importantly your consideration. There is an entire host of things threatening potential health problems if you eat…

As incredulous as it might seem, God does talk to people who have His spirit inside of them. Those that portray God as being too busy with large, important affairs to speak to individuals must not have read their Bibles. God as a loving heavenly Father does directly communicate with His people at times. However,… 

Do You Know?

  • 8 min read

Recently I have been watching a Netflix series documentary called, “In the Name of God: A Holy Betrayal.” Basically it is about different so called religious leaders in Korea that led their followers on unimaginable paths proclaiming to know, amongst many other things, God’s will for their lives. These kind people were led astray despite…

It might surprise you to know that as long as there have been human beings, mankind has endured mental health problems. As thinking beings… 

Barking Up the Wrong Tree…

  • 7 min read

One thing we all have in common as human beings is the desire to find things that make us happy. If you think about, we are all on a quest for happiness. And, far too many people seem to be unable to find it. It is probably the most written about subject in the whole…
