This is the funnest things I’ve seen this holiday season. This is straight out of the “this is harder than it looks” book. Only truly talented musicians can pull this off. Thanks to all for the big smile this holiday season.
If you know me at all, you know how obsessed I have become with the story of Jdmityai Damour, the Walmart employee who was tramped to death on Black Friday in 2008. For those who don’t know, a brief refresher. And then, a word about this year…ie, what’s happening, what I’m consider, for this Black […]
Still pumped about last night’s show at Uncle Calvin’s. But on the heels of that, I need to let you know that I’ll be playing at the great CD Source, on Greenville Avenue, next Friday: CD Source’s “Record Store Day Black FridayNovember 23, 2012 7 pm(Get a map here) I can’t think of a better […]
One of the more fascinating stories to come out of this presidential election cycle is the Romney campaign’s behavior on election night. For ninety minutes that evening, despite the fact that all the major television networks had called the race (even FOX), there was no communication from the Romney campaign. Did he know some objective […]
Deeply concerned about the news out of Israel and Gaza today. It seems like both sides of that conflict are engaged in a dangerous game of chicken with each other. And so, perhaps a good time to repost this song and video from me. In the name of our common God, let’s keep praying for […]
One of the trends in United Methodism these days is to talk extensively about “the mission field.” It’s a buzz word. It’s a concept. The question is asked: “In every place where we do ministry, what does the mission field look like?” It’s a very very good question, and I’m glad we’re asking it. Demographics, […]

Since Tuesday’s election, I’ve heard “public Christians” –those speaking on TV, radio, the media– talking about the horrible apocalypse that was unleashed Tuesday night, at the re-election of Barack Obama. For months and months now, in my North Dallas neighborhood, I’ve seen these yardsigns: They’re apparently from the Dallas […]
In the coming week, I have three shows/lectures, that I hope you’ll come out to see. If that sounds like a lot, well, maybe it is. But each of these events are unique. None of them will overlap, in terms of the music and the message. So, why not come to it all? Connections “Super […]
What an election. While I know that there may be many who are stunned this morning, I have to say I am not surprised. This vote went almost exactly the way I assumed it would. As you can see here. (I am surprised by FLA, however…) So, what did we learn? 1) Trust Nate Silver, […]
It’s over. President Obama has been re-elected. Look like Nate Silver was right. I got pretty close too. (Still a bit surprised that it looks like Obama will win Florida…). Thought I’d post this video from tonight, here in Dallas. It’s the moment that the television networks called the race for President Obama. Have a […]
