  • The Sacred Canopy - Are we in danger of losing our secure shelter in these uncertain and confused times?  I live only three hours away from the much discussed riots in Minneapolis, in the winter of 2026. I have thought often of the Lord's protection. This is especially true for men, since the Lord has given to us a… Continue Reading
  • Our Gender Fixation - Bonnie Kristian had an article in Christianity Today entitled, "We are obsessed with Gender."  She thinks we talk, "endlessly about manhood and womanhood (biblical or otherwise), masculinity and femininity, gender roles and whether our conception and execution of them is Christlike or worldly."  She maintains, "The way we now speak about gender in popular conversation… Continue Reading
  • Be A Man - "Be a Man!"  These were  words I keep hearing within me, as I was alone on my daily walk.  Judy was not along,  so I took the time to reflect on my  spiritual journey and my relationship with my wife.  My heart was troubled  because of the frustration and confusion I felt in the verbal… Continue Reading
  • I Just Want To Go Home - At the recent White House Correspondents Dinner, there was an assassination attempt on our President.  The gunmen never made it into the actually ballroom in an attempt to kill the President,  but was thankfully stopped before he could have caused harm.  It created a lot of fear, confusion and anxiety among those in attendance.  I… Continue Reading

There have been clean air advisories, warning people to stay inside because of the bad air.  It is… Continue Reading
  • A Modern Mystic - I have been reading a book by Dr. David John Seel entitled "Aspirational Masculinity."  It has been very informative as I continue to process what it means to be a man, living for Jesus in this new year (2026).  He acknowledges that masculinity is in a state of flux.  Even though men are listening for… Continue Reading
  • Rejected Silver - Jeremiah, the prophet was given  a ministry of speaking for God to a people who were hardened in their sinful ways.  Jeremiah was sent to shake them up.  "See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant" (Jer. 1:10).  That is… Continue Reading
  • Confused Excuses - "Confused Excuses" is the title Christopher Wright gives to Jeremiah 2:20-37.  I found it in the "Bible Speaks Today."  Some self disclosure - I have made a commitment to understand the prophet Jeremiah, so that I might share some of what God has to say through the prophets for our day.  It is hard work. … Continue Reading
  • The “Y” Matters - Mark Hancock, CEO of Trail Life USA, had a thought provoking article in The Daily Signal, about young men in America,  observing, "America is waking up to the reality that the 'Y' matters."  Referring to men he points to the Y chromosome, "The 'Y' doesn't just mark their biology - it point them to their… Continue Reading
