I go to McDonalds in the morning as part of my pre work routine. Sometimes I just run in and out with a Diet Coke. Lately, I go in and sit with my a Diet Coke and read my Bible. Today, I saw the cashier from Walgreens eating an Egg McMuffin and drinking coffee. Hum, I thought, I wonder… I …

In light of things going on in the world, I have to speak out. A little, anyway. Big surprise, eh? There are some, in the name of religion, spreading hate and killing. In this country, we’ve hamstrung ourselves with the weak and flighty concept of “politically correct.” We can’t objectively criticize anyone except white men, big business and Christians. Even …

My husband is many wonderful things. I especially like that he makes me laugh. Today, I was in the kitchen making a sandwich and singing part of a Keith Urban song. Take your cat / and leave my sweater Tony responds in his Red-the-cat voice. “Why don’t you want the cat?” As if on queue, our orange tabby cruises around …

I was a great fan of the weeping Indian in the ’70s commercial. Remember that one? He as standing by a stream littered with garbage. Gore’s movie, for whatever reason, has …

A friend of mine plays bass. In fact, I have several friends who play bass. But on this one particular day, I was listening to a song called “Glorious Throne” by Alisha Powell from the International House of Prayer-KC. The song is upbeat with a lot of funk. Pretty good for a white girl. There’s a vamp bridge in the …

Pardon me while I make a case, from the Word. Hang with me, this is interesting. Promise. In Numbers 27, the daughters of Zelophehad went to Moses and said, “Hey, just because we’re girls we don’t think we should lose out on our fathers inheritance.” They made their case. Our dad died. He was a righteous man, and why should …
