Spirituality. Politics. Music. Life.
I’ve been writing longform over on Facebook for more than a decade now, but never had anything approaching the reaction to this week’s post on Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. 10,000 shares?Are you kidding me? Wowza.So, thanks again to everyone for sharing/reading this post…and for re-enforcing my faith in humanity. It’s very clear that, like […]

It’s a rare lazy Sunday for me. They say photography is being in the right place at the right time. They also say the best camera is the one you have in your hand. So, here are a few shots, just outside these window, here at our family lakehouse…all of them with my trusty old […]
Read MoreHave I mentioned lately that Tom Karges is a home repair genius? Tom is a church member who has been leading the repairs here at the parsonage, which have been ongoing for the past few months. You can see his new website here, where he showcases his own art and his work in home remodeling […]
Read MoreIt’s only minutes into today, and I am already certain of my daily gratitude. I can’t imagine this one will get eclipsed by anything else that can happen today. This is our last night at the lake. Sometime tomorrow (er, later today) we’ll head back to town. Because it is our last night, I realized […]
Read MoreOK, I’m gonna declare that this is different from my “daily grat” of the other day. My favorite time of day is thirty minutes before, and an hour after, sunset. Last night, I sat out on the dock and took pictures with my Treo. Then, I put them together in a time lapse movie, with […]
Read MoreAs both a preacher and a songwriter, I’m embarrassed to admit I never heard Woody Guthrie’s great song “Jesus Christ,” until I watched the credits of Michael Moore’s latest movie last night. Well, better late than never, I suppose. What struck me about it was how completely and totally consistent it is with much of […]
Read MoreMaybe it’s that I’m getting great sleep. Maybe it’s that I’m getting *enough* sleep. Maybe it’s the Temperpedic bed here at the lake. Whatever’s happening, I’ve been having some really amazing dreams the past few days. I won’t go into all of them here. But sufficed to say, I like dreaming. And I like having […]
Read MoreTom says work at the house went well today. Good reports from our house sitter when she returned this evening too. Meanwhile, here at the lake, things are good too. We went into Tyler, mainly to see the zoo, today. Big fun with that. Then, for dinner, we found Tyler’s branch of the muy delicioso […]
Read MoreLot’s I could count as today’s “daily grat.” But I think I settle for this: This was the scene on the porch just a while ago here, and it needs no further explanation, except “Thank You.” (During this year, my goal is to find something new to be thankful for every single day, and to […]
Read MoreI feel hopelessly behind in “Daily Grats.” I’ve got a lot written, but not a lot actually put out here. I’ll try to catch up as possible. Mom and Dad were here at the lakehouse yesterday, because Dad had to be at a board meeting yesterday; so last night, we all went over the Moore’s […]
