Relax, no one is asking you to be a Christian

spiritual center
at your core, what are you connected to?

Relax, no one is asking you to be a Christian. But what should be considered mandatory is that at the core of your emotions is a foundation built on some rock-solid belief.

What is that belief?

It can be anything you want. The danger is not being able to answer the question.

It would be easier to not volunteer at Church

lector
a short reading doesn’t mean an easy reading

It would be easier to not volunteer at Church. Children’s Liturgy once a month, Lector twice a month. Add work travel, small business startup, exercise, home ownership, father, husband… So yeah, it would be much easier to not volunteer at Church.

Been asked to do the high school reunion invocation

high school invocation
it’s a small, small world… filled with great spirits

Flying home in three three days for a 35-year High School reunion. Been asked to give the invocation from Jon, a classmate. Once already I’ve suggested he do it. This is the second attempt. Am honored and yet, pulling back…

  • Jon, woud like to offer you another opportunity to reconsider. You have a marvelous spirit – which humbles me. You and Keith were the only two classmates at my Dad’s funeral. I’ll never forget that. And to hear you were at Jay’s Dad’s too. You are a very special person… and it would be an honor to hear you speak.

What is a Father’s responsibility with Nature Deficit Disorder?

Nature deficit disorder and the prediction that today’s children have a life expectancy five years less than their parents… this would be a good time to think about solutions. Not perfect ones, but better than not doing anything…

Overcoming Nature Deficit Disorder

Sure, it would be great if there was no controversy over Boy Scouts and acceptance. It would be great if there was no controversy over anything. Like that is ever gonna happen. Go. Take a stand. Do your best. To do your duty. To God and your Country.

And learn how to make a fire to keep yourself alive, using only one match. There can be no mistakes. If the fire doesn’t start, you’ll never see daylight.

What happens when daylight does come, and the economy starts humming along again. It seems far too many of us aren’t spending our time now doing this?

Please don’t use coercion to get me to forward those Christian emails

Comply or else...
Comply or else…

Yesterday, got one of those “Christian” emails about: “Isn’t it funny how we’ll forward a thousand joke emails to our friends but not forward a Christian email”.

Over the years, forwarding email chains has been discontinued.

Why not send a gift others would want to share for the sheer joy of it, versus coercion?

Hoping we all fully realize our amazing Grace and unlimited potential today, coerced or otherwise.
