Babies in the sky?
I was traveling home from Hillsboro yesterday when I saw God’s amazing creative hand at work. The sky had beautiful fluffy white clouds painted onto it in different layers. I’m sure all of us at some time have sat, or lain, to gaze at the clouds trying to find different shapes in different… Continue reading Babies in the sky?
Bible Resources for the Blind
This is not a tutorial in using these products. It’s just a quick list of helpful resources. Bibles, the good, bad and otherwise. Logos. Definitely the most popular and best in the world, but not accessible for screen readers. The same inaccessible results in both PC and Mac.

Truth and Fiction of CRT 4 Wrapping Up
The question is whether CRT is being taught in school, and if it is, is it the kind of thing that children should learn? The official response is that it’s a legal framework for law students to analyze racial inequality in the legal system. Great, keep it there. The categories it examines are highly subjective… Continue reading Truth and Fiction of CRT 4 Wrapping Up

Truth and Fiction of CRT 1 Background with Racial Problems
Being a long time electronic repair guy, my first thought on the topic was, “CRT? Cathode Ray Tube? What’s so controversial? Why not just transition to flat screens for television enjoyment?” With all the uproar over it, I figured the acronym was actually something related to the social justice universe. CRT, as it has come… Continue reading Truth and Fiction of CRT 1 Background with Racial Problems
SBC Defense and Observations
I notice the many attacks on the SBC lately on the Christian Podcast Community. Many rightly so. I notice the nearly 50-50 split mirrors the kind of political split in American politics. Regardless of the leftward shift, for many churches and individuals in the SBC, it really won’t matter, and others won’t consider leaving. Even… Continue reading SBC Defense and Observations
My Viral Need Seems to be Vaccinated. Lend Me a Hand and Make Me Sick
Or, The Roof is Caving In What makes an item on the Internet go viral? I’ll get to the point. I have a personal need and hate to even publicize it. The conventional wisdom is to dive into the world of Crowdfunding, but I don’t have all that big of followership, and certainly not a… Continue reading My Viral Need Seems to be Vaccinated.
