Post-Resurrection Quote
“The philosophers of Greece and Rome doted on beautiful ideals. The Apostles were enthused with love for the living Christ, the tangible Image of the living God. The secret of their power lay in this personal attachment of faith to the living Christ in very person. It was a heart-to-heart love that conquered the world […]

Back to Da Vinci
My wife finished both Angels and Demons and The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown during the holy week. And her conclusion: "It's fiction." Why am I not surprised?

Resurrection Song Podcast/MP3
So here I go again. Here's a song on the resurrection. You have to forgive the vocals and the arrangement. After all I'm just an amateur :). I can't read notes, I play by ear, and just adjust the equalizer on your media player if you can't understand what I'm singing. Better yet, read the […]

Podcast Test

(You have to right click, copy link location, and paste it to your podcaster or aggregator (I believe that’s what it’s called). Anyway, here’s the link to the song itself. […]

Morning Thoughts
birds chirping prayers thanking God for wonders of daily love and mercies undeserved: such as bread crumbs from nowhere and straws with which to make love nests – no need for worry! The Father cares

The Infidel
He cursed the light that once dispelled his darkness; He blew the flame out and stepped into the darkness whence he came. The light was but a flick'ring flame: no real warmth, no steady light it gave. The candle-bearers all were walking in darkness still (though showing off their candles); they hurt him with their […]

Listen
Have I time to listen truly To the still small voice of Heaven? 'Tis to mortal ears not given, But the broken heart hears clearly. I seek solitude most often; In the silences I listen: Learn to love His voice more fully; "Not my will be done – Thine only!"
