The Aftermath and Emerging Season In an insightful, post-election news interview, somewhat strangely but perhaps not so, a news anchor responded to the wisdom of her interviewee with the flattering comment of: “I’d like to crawl into your brain to better understand how you think.” More than ever before, in this world of extremes and […]
The Focus in the Jumble The quest for our attention is relentless. It is off-the-scales in intensity. Overwhelming. It not only reshapes our perspective on things, but is a disruption to the very process our thinking is based on. It goes beyond the need to glean a right focus in all the jumble. The deluge […]
It’s Not How You Think And you’re right. That very clearly was as a double-entendre. “It’s not how you think:” first being your expectation of the outcome.

A realm where spirit controls matter. Where the natural yields to the supernatural. It is the reality permeated with God’s presence. With this reality mired in […]
The Stewardship of Generosity Never has there been a time that I have been more conscious of the presence spoken of in Hebrews regarding that great cloud of witnesses.
