The 50 Final Events in World History

What is going on in our world?  Are we near the end?  How do we know?  Do you read the book that tells you?  Some do...  Some don't...  Do you believe what you read?  Do you not?  

It's better to know than suffer from the fear or the unknown...

Flavius Josephus

The Antiquities of the Jews


Are you a historical buff?  Do you like finding out what went on before?  Then this is something that you might want to delve into...  I don't think it's for the faint of heart or the frivolous...  I think you may have to have an intellectual brain to process this one...  But if you have mind to then have at it...

The Preacher and the Presidents

Faith and politics...  So much controversy...  Freedom of religion...  And it's place in our political structure...  How would you handle this kind of controversy?  

Depending on who is president...  our nation leans one way then the other...  

What to do?  What to do?

Honoring St Patrick

I Am Patrick


Do you know your facts?  Slavery was very common place in Ireland...  

People from all nationalities go through various sorts of adversity but some people go through adversity and overcome them in ways that you would not expect them to...  

While others just whine about their sorrows...  

Are you content to stew in your victimhood or will you become...

The stuff of legends...

 Forever Ruined for the Ordinary

What do we really think of ordinary?  Ordinary is not a bad thing but some of us will never be content with it.  Always chasing after green pastures and seeking life beyond...  What is your idea of ordinary?  And what do you seek?  Seek and you shall find...

Martin Buber

Gog and Magog

This is a fictional book about two Hasidic rabbis and the use of power...  What are the means to an end?  Should we use evil if it ends up for a resultant good?  

Good...  Evil...  Good...  Evil...

Ann Voskamp

This author has a poetic way with words.  I did this study and it was eye opening and authentic in a way to see how we can be thankful for everything...  The little things...  The big things...  Things we take for granted...  Things we overlook in our brokenness...

Romper Room Antics

Is that the lollipop gang I see?


It was one of those days
Where pomp and circumstance 
Were required... 

Serious things were being said...
And serious actions were required 
Because seriously...

It was a serious thing...
But as is always the case...
Some people 
Were anything but...

Some waved
Their lollipops
Like Miss Sally
In the days of yore...

Don't you wonder
At the ludicrous
Intentions of 
A gang of pops?

@JoSH Popcorn Poetry

Sometimes you wonder why people do the things they do?  
Some ideas are good and some ideas are not so good...  
Sometimes you make yourself a fool for the things you believe in...  

Do you know the truth behind the lies or are you standing up for something that if you really thought about it...  Was just a bad idea?  And didn't make any sense in the first place?
