And yet, Abba loves us just the way we are. The battle is won with Jesus on the cross. I need nothing more than to believe that. Nothing I do, can do, will do, needs to be added. That action is sufficient. Read more

Growing up, there was one poll. It was the Gallup poll, remember that one? It was everywhere. Everyone quoted the Gallup Poll. It was the gold standard of, well, polls. Even the networks quoted them. There were only three networks back then. I am not counting the one UHF channel 13 in Phoenix or channel 8, local public channel. Three networks, that was it. I had six channels to choose from on my TV. The question which comes up is-is God in control? I mean, we have a dumpster fire every day on TV and ya just can't help but wonder, Dad, uhm, do you have this? Read more

Why would God, who loves us so much, sending his son Jesus to die on a cross for us, let us live in something like this? Or, starve, or get sick-bad lingering kind of sickness, or divorce. Pick one. Read more

LIFE OBSERVATIONS I don’t know about you, but I think my Lord Jesus has a great sense of humor. I think Jesus actually enjoys us. Yes, He is my Lord and King and I have wept many many many times in sheer joy of his compassion, but my God is funny too. He can be funny without saying a word. I imagine you can look at his expression and crack up. He loves to see life, I believe, through my/your... Read more

IT IS JUST ME AND THE HOUNDS. I have been ‘retired’ now for—two full months. It’s just me and the hounds. I’m not going to count the first time I retired, three years prior to that? Two novels ago—I think? Now, those of you who know me or who have seen me on TV or the radio, I am a different guy. Mark, you don’t look that, well, old. I’m not. I’m also not on TV.

I have to go to church, I need to pray more, I need to give more, I need to read the Bible more, I need to love better, I need… I need… Here’s a different idea—that’s Satan wanting you to make it about you. Jesus wants us to keep an eye on Him, His example of love, sacrificial love. Signs, He will sometimes let us see ourselves. Read more
