Guys, apparently, I have a blind mind’s eye. The internet (and maybe even scientists) calls it Aphantasia. With a name that cool, you’re expecting something really cool. Even blind mind’s eye sounds cool. Here’s what it means: I can’t picture things in my head. Specifically, it is really hard for me to read fiction andContinue reading “Blind Mind’s Eye”

He who is faithful in a very little
Oh boy I wanted to be something. To be used by God in a big way! For my church in the city, that meant being a preacher. All the theologically minded at our church wanted to be preachers, coincidentally of course. I’m not sure what the rest of the guys were thinking, they had theirContinue reading “He who is faithful in a very little”
Dumb Obedience
The wife coined a term about a year ago. She was asked by a friend, “How come you and Kyle seem so mature though your parents weren’t Christians?” Obviously humbled by the question, the wife simply stated, “It was really just dumb obedience.” [A quick note on our parents. We pray regularly for their salvation;Continue reading “Dumb Obedience”
On Friendship
I used to be so concerned that I didn’t have any lasting friends, through thick and thin. My wife does! She has ladies she can text at any moment and they will respond. They share things, heavy and light. I have never had that in the same way because that’s not how guys do friendship.Continue reading “On Friendship”
My Bible Reading Plan
When we moved to St. Louis, we were blessed to have a pastor whose preaching made us want to read the Bible. When illustrating, he would use Old Testament stories first, then church history examples. It was really great. I would only add using examples from creation to that list because that’s what Jesus didContinue reading “My Bible Reading Plan”
Handwritten Notes
I had an idea. Those come along once in a while; I love it when they do. Sometimes they are ideas that I can take action on immediately, I like those best. The hard ones are ideas for other people; they often don’t care. I’m sure you would, but most people don’t want to hearContinue reading “Handwritten Notes”
Don’t Give Away Your Chainsaw
As the title states, I made a huge mistake one time. My grandpa had a great chain saw. When he died, I inherited it (something like the picture below). One time, I cut down the posts of my back yard two story deck with that thing. A little boy’s dream to be sure. Alas, IContinue reading “Don’t Give Away Your Chainsaw”
What Edie Taught Me
We had our first child when I taught at Cahokia High School. It was the near end of my first year there, and I would spend only two years teaching there. I eventually tried to get out of teaching, but that’s for another time. Since I had only read one book during my time K-12Continue reading “What Edie Taught Me”
Laziness
Sometimes it takes a few times to sink in. Lord willing, we learn from other people’s mistakes. Usually for me, I have to learn from my own. Even then, I’m a slow learner. Once is usually not enough! That’s how it was with my laziness problem. Yes, a full grown adult who the Lord neededContinue reading “Laziness”
Don’t Rush It
I knew what I wanted in life. Due to some interesting counsel from some books I read, I had a strong desire to live, work, and go to church in the same neighborhood. We lived in St. Louis at the time, and we were already living and going to church in the same neighborhood. OneContinue reading “Don’t Rush It”
