When YOU Need A Good Samaritan
Imagine this... There has been an accident in the middle of your local mall full of Christmas shoppers, leaving two of them injured. Your loved one is the first, actively bleeding to death. The second has a deep, painful gash in his finger that will also require medical care. You call out to the...

When You Don’t Want to…but You Must
You've almost certainly been there. For the sake of the greater good, you needed to have a conversation with someone. But you know it will be hard, as the topic is one people don’t often discuss. You try to anticipate how it will be received and therefore how to frame it helpfully, but you know...

Why Originality Means Everything!
Yep, that's me. Hangin' with starfish and kissin' a sea cucumber awhile back. Why? Well, there could be a lot of potential reasons I guess. The tour guide did tell me it would bring 7 years of good luck. And I hadn't been popular with the ladies for a good long time. Or maybe I happen to know...

Getting and Giving the Most out of Life
The Yeti. If you just thought of your water bottle, then it's time to watch more shady "documentaries" of "real" creatures late at night. I'm not talking about agua frio; I'm talking about cool mysterious creatures with a cool mysterious name (come on, admit it!). And they happen to make a welcome...

It Causes Depression and Death Without Us Even Knowing It
It lets others limit what our best can be, when we could be free to realize that for ourselves.It keeps us inexplicably idolizing the rockiness of the richest, instead of spending our resources to help the world's poorest. It keeps us teaching each other and our children to sacrifice themselves to...

God for Dummies, Like Me
DISCLAIMER: We are all dummies when it comes to completely understanding a being as complex and lofty as a deity, including the Christian God. Aside from knowing his favorite cereal (obviously Cracklin' Oat Bran!), I have to admit there are many divine details we must be willing to leave as...

One Way We’re All Deceived
For a guy with a whole mouth full of sweet teeth (why only have one?), I still have to admit that some candy is just nasty. Maybe I'm getting old, or maybe my tastes are being "refined"...just not toward refined sugar as much as before! There's a place by us called The Peanut Store that offers...
A Logical, Honest, and Restorative Approach to Abortion
Yep, my blog and book series is all about Healing Hereafter, especially in regard to the after-we-die hereafter. But we also partner with worldwidehousechurch.org to heal hereafters of folks alive now who are in need. And it's really hard to do that genuinely or effectively if we don't at least...
Gotta Go Against the Flow!
It's so hard to resist. You put your child to bed...then after a few hours you tiptoe back into his room. Why? Well, because you love him and really do kinda miss him, despite the chaos he spent the last 12 hours creating. But really you go in there because 1) there could be anything happening...
What Children Are Best at Teaching Us
I adamantly maintain that there are two transitions in life that teach you more than any others. The first is having a second child. The second is well, I won't say, because everyone has at least one uniquely educational transition that I don't know about! But back to the first one: the second...
