God is the great Redeemer and can turn the worst situations for good.
But He is never the authour of sin.
That's our doing.
Whenever I look at depictions of our solar system and the Universe beyond, the more I'm convinced that we really do live in Whoville.
Hate speech laws don't take away the hate in anyone's heart.
Laws can limit the words a heart may speak, but only the gospel can change it.
We can't have ethics without true theology.
Like Cain, when we fail at the altar with God, we then fail in the field with our brother.
Sleep is a great sacrament that points us to Christ.
Every day I reenact the gospel truth that one must lay down and die in order to later be raised in power & life.

Me At 15: When I grow up, I'm not gonna be like my parents.
Me Now: Why do you kids keep forgetting to put the milk back in the fridge?!
To be Frank, I'd have to change my name.
"Don't be angry at the mirror if it's you that is ugly."
—Russian Proverb
The same generation that's calling for greater authenticity is the same generation making meatless ‘meat’ a thing.
The Prince of Darkness grim,
We tremble not for him,
His rage we can endure,
For we know his doom is sure,
One little word shall fell him
"Beware of those who say there is no hell and who invent new ways to heaven."

A Christian Conversation on Mask Mandates
Nothing in the English language begins with n and ends with g.
Humans: We're good defence lawyers when it comes to our own sins. We're good prosecuters when it comes to the sins of others.
We have all been given varying benefits and degrees of privilege.
God wants you to use these privileges to glorify him and bless others - and not to spend your life feeling guilty or envious because you have more or less privilege than someone else.
Better to be criticized by a wise person than to be praised by a fool.
A fool’s laughter is quickly gone, like thorns crackling in a fire. This also is meaningless.
Ecclesiastes 7
It's possible to live in Texas, Sweden, or Florida—without a COVID restriction in sight—and still be a slave to sin. Liberty, at its deepest level, isn't civil
