DID YOUR SIDE WIN?
Ok, the election is over. So now what? If you are a United States citizen and you voted for the president in this election, one of two things has happened for you: 1. Your candidate won, or 2. Your candidate lost. Great! …so, now what? A record number of people turned out for this election.…

THE IMPRINTS WE LEAVE
Imprints are impressions. They aren’t necessarily tangible and you can’t always quite put your finger on them sometimes. When you encounter people, you’re left feeling a certain way or another. When people encounter you, they’re left feeling some kind of way too!View post to subscribe to site newsletter.

ENOUGH ALREADY
Have you ever just had it? Like… something just burrowed its way in, down to your last nerve, and that was it. There wasn’t any more of what (or who)-ever it was that you could take. Any more and that would be the end of it. Any more and you were going to take swift…

WHO CARES
The story of the paralyzed man being healed does not expressly state that these men who carried him were his friends. We come to this conclusion because of what they cared about; and consequently, what they couldn’t have cared less about. Well how do you know what they did or did not care about? Funny…

CLONING JESUS
Do you remember Dolly the Sheep? Dolly was a sheep cloned by scientists in 1996. She was a pioneer. Cloning animals has become pretty common place since then. Now we kind of try to avoid GMOs, but this isn’t a soapbox for that topic. I bring up Dolly because she (brace yourself) reminds me a…

DEAR ME, I LOVE YOU
We know who our neighbors are, in the biblical sense. But I wonder if we know who ‘people’ is. I’ll spare you the suspense: WE are people—you and I. An element of this command that I don’t think gets enough attention is the “as yourself” part. Love your neighbor as YOURSELF. This means we have…
