Three Parts Random, One Part Ridiculous
I have a few things to say and one has little to do with the other. Let randomness rule and here’s hoping I don’t zig when I should have zagged. —α— One. More. Shameless. Plug. (Well, one more today.) Have you gotten your copy of my daily devotional ebook? If not, why not? Why not…
West Ham United, Pretty Bubbles and The Still-Hopeful, Melancholy Soul
I was thinking about Dad this morning and singing a song he often sang, just out of the blue, just to break up the silence. The song goes like this: I’m forever blowing bubbles Pretty bubbles in the air They fly so high, they reach the sky Just like my dreams, they fade and die…

One Holy Moment: This Is My Body…Take, Eat | an Easter Devotional
An Easter Devotional Communion, or the Lord’s Supper, has always been a holy and solemn event to me, thanks largely to my grandfather. I would not say that Pastor Bill Henager (my mother’s father) and I had a good many bonding moments. Ours was not the kind of grandfather/grandson relationship that led to many fishing…
