I have been trying to write a blog entry for awhile now, but it has been really hard. These are some crazy times we live in. Not just crazy, actually. They are downright unbelievable. I sometimes do something else, watch a TV series or whatever, and get caught up in it, and then I come back to... Continue Reading →
Where was God when Michaela was kidnapped?
This was originally posted on my Dear Michaela blog, under the title of Good God, bad God, or no God? Someone reposted it on Facebook today, which caused me to go back and re-read it, which caused me to want to repost it. There is nothing here that is not... Continue Reading →
What a week!
What is needed right here is a big eyes-crossed emoticon. But I'm too tired to find one, so you will have to make it up in your head. This has been one crazy week.

Books: Out of Sorts by Sarah Bessey
I have been a Christian for many decades now, but all of you probably know that it has not been an easy path for me. I have struggled with my own questions, as well as the questions of people I love. Actually, using the term "I have" is probably incorrect. It's more like "I do"... Continue Reading →
