(This is an OLD one. I didn’t realize I had this one laying around in the “Draft” bin. Oh well. It’s a rant about Brian McLaren, so that’s always in season even if the subject material is about four years … Continue reading

Once upon a time I was naive enough to think that “the best candidate” wins in an election. I’m not kidding. I was so sold-out to the notion that every vote counted and that the political system could help solve … Continue reading

I’ve said it before. I’ll say it again. Mitt Romney is NOT a follower of the one Lord, the only Son of God, God in human form, Jesus Christ. Mitt worships at a place that may “include” the name of … Continue reading

What the “Occupy” movement captures is not so much a clear sense of what it “wants” as a clear sense about that which many in America now wrestle… A growing sea of economic disparity that exists between “ultra-haves-in-perpetuity” and the … Continue reading

Yes, my blood was boiling last night as I wrote my commentary on “The Texas Textbook Massacre” (copyright 2010, NoMoreGreed.com). Today, as I did further review, it went beyond boil to full-out, lid-popping explosion. The Texas Tribune did an extended … Continue reading

Living in the Philadelphia area, I routinely flip over to Matt O’Donnell, Tamela Edwards, and the Action News Team for my weekly wake-up dose of reality. Stabbings, murders, rapes, earthquakes, lava flows… You know. Just the stuff you need to get your day started off with a “What is the world coming to!” bang. We go to sleep with Jim Gardner at 11, we wake up with Matt, Tamela, David, and Karen in the AM.
So imagine my shock this morning when I flipped on the FiOS box and was immediately met with a different kind of morning wake-up call. I guess I accidentally left the Gospel Music Channel on after watching a rerun of a rerun of a rerun of “Sue Thomas: FB-EYE” on GMC. There on my TV screen, begging for cash with the breathless earnestness of a man on the verge of starvation, was a guy I’d never heard of. Mike Murdock was his name. He was literally shouting into my face, “Don’t let your seed stay in your hand! If you don’t plant your $1000 or $2000 seed you won’t get your harvest!”

I’m a pretty simple guy. Once I find something that works for me I rarely deviate from the plan. Take our cars, for example. It took me years to realize that all the Fords, Chevys, and Dodges we were buying … Continue reading
