“…but God has shown me that I should not call anyone profane or unclean.” (Acts 10:28b)
What’s a line from a poem, hymn, or song that brings tears to your eyes?
Was reading more of “Democracy Awakening” by Heather Cox Richardson last night. The last, idk, 10 years have been such a blur that it’s wild to read a sober account of, say, just 2019-2021, and realize “We put this madman in charge….again.” What a time to be alive. The kakistocracy is mind-numbing.
What will the history books say about how churches in the USA met the moment of the 2020s?
“Which expense in your life delivers the least happiness per dollar and which delivers the most happiness per dollar?” (HT: James Clear, who HTs The Simple Path to Wealth)
Our leaders have abandoned us. We need new leaders.
Calling for a day of mourning, protesting, fasting, praying, etc. this July 4th. Not celebrating. Who’s with me?
Interesting to compare the GOP’s record on (1) fiscal conservatism, family values, and a pro-life ethic vs. (2) helping the rich at the expense of the poor, and blaming immigrants, liberals, the poor, minorities, LGBTQ, etc. for all our problems. GOP = pro-Mammon and pro-xenophobe.
God will not be mocked. He hears the cries of the widow, orphan, and immigrant. He remembers the plight of the poor, powerless, and oppressed. Those who take the name of the LORD in vain by hating the poor in His name will receive a double portion of retribution from the Almighty.

Bidding farewell to at least the big beard and/or mustache until the fall. It’s too damn hot and humid out 😓
OK, confession: I already ditched the mustache, mainly because I don’t want to run in the heat with a sweat sponge on my face. Maybe I’ll give the mustache another try in the fall.
OK, be honest. Is it giving Nick Offerman, Ted Lasso, Tom Selleck? Or “I want to punch that creepy hipster in the face”? 👨🥸👴
Anyone willing to part with a used or damaged World Book set that’s less than 20 years old?

I’m trying to figure out the easiest ways to address insulation issues behind finished walls and ceilings in my upstairs bedrooms and a bathroom. What would allow me to address smaller problem spots without breaking the bank or tearing up the place?
