Muslim Child Prophet? Muslim Child Actor? Midget Cleric?

Last updated on: July 1, 2010 at 11:07 am By John Shore

One of the weird things about writing this blog is that it forces me to confront the fact that (news flash!) when it comes to religion people can be pretty crazy. The first time I saw this video, two months ago, I watched it four times in a row. It’s one of the more fascinating things I’ve ever seen. Being the obsessive blogging machine that I am, I immediately wanted it to share with you guys. But I stayed my... Read more

Single Women: Do Not Try To Change Him

Last updated on: June 30, 2010 at 1:22 pm By John Shore

A bit more on the general subject touched upon with yesterday’s, “Stop Wasting Time Looking for Mr. Right.” If you’re a single woman, a good thing to understand about any man with whom you’re thinking about getting more deeply involved or even married is that men don’t change. They are who they are. Love and accept the man you’re interested in as he is, or move on. If your potential life-mate possesses a quality that you don’t like—a habit, personality... Read more

Stop Wasting Your Time Looking For Mr. Right

Last updated on: June 29, 2010 at 8:33 am By John Shore

A single woman recently wrote me this: What do guys want? I’m an intelligent, good-hearted woman with a lot to offer any man. But all the men I meet seem to have some sort of congenital aversion to commitment—to settling down, getting serious, getting married. But isn’t that the best life has to offer — finding that special someone, falling in love, getting married, settling down, having children, growing old together? Don’t men want that, too? If so, how do... Read more

Why Love is Like a Tapeworm

Last updated on: November 25, 2013 at 10:54 pm By John Shore

People always say that love is an unfathomable mystery no mortal can fully understand. I, on the other hand, think love is like a tapeworm. It’s invasive, sucks the life out of you, makes you take drugs, makes you walk funny, and causes you to spend a lot of time alone in the bathroom, crying. Of course, there’s also much to be said in favor of love. And Shakespeare, as everyone knows, said most of it. Who can forget the... Read more

Let’s Try Blogging About Current Events!

Last updated on: June 26, 2010 at 10:54 pm By John Shore

On my Facebook page, a reader commented about my blog, “All your posts refer to the Christian faith. You don’t comment on the oil spill, the firing of a general, the World Cup, etc.” Good point! I should blog more about current events. And what better time to blog about current events than right now? Let me go look at the headlines that are, at this moment (11 p.m. Saturday, June 26, 2010) on the front page of the website... Read more

Why I Don’t Run a Ministry

Last updated on: November 25, 2013 at 10:55 pm By John Shore

Yesterday I was talking to a big deal ministry leader because that’s how important I am, and he said, “How’s that blog of yours coming along? Don’t you hate having to do that? It’s every day, isn’t it? I hate it when I have to do stuff like that, because then you have to turn everything you see, or that happens to you, into a little sermon. It’s like you can never just relax.” So I thought, “You are such... Read more

“Waffles?”

Last updated on: June 25, 2010 at 6:15 am By John Shore

As I sit here feeling for some terrible reason I sense but can’t grasp that I’m finally going to spill my morning cup of coffee all over my laptop that I never actually put on my lap because as much as I enjoy lounging and writing I hate it when my thighs get fried, I wonder: Am I such a great writer? Because if I was am were was am, wouldn’t I use punctuation at least every once in awhile?... Read more
