Devotional June 16: (Nothing) Save The Queen!
(pic by NikoS92, www.deviantart.com) I am child of the 80s, having arrived at the age of 12 in 1980. I was a fan of punk rock music and all the angry young man/society ripping things of the Clash, the Ramones, the Dead Kennedys and similar bands. I never got my

Devotional 5/27: Despised and Rejected by Women
Sometimes in my more nostalgic moments, my mind drifts to my old college days and how I often wondered what the future would be like. The Book of Isaiah is known for predicting the future too, especially the coming of Christ. I often think about the descriptions of Jesus in
Devotional May 20th: I Love the Smell of Napalm in the Morning
The Pew report (http://www.pewforum.org/2015/05/12/chapter-1-the-changing-religious-composition-of-the-u-s/) released earlier this year did not have the reaction I thought it would. Though there were mentions of it on the news and radio, nothing was said of it at my church on Sunday and I did not see any people running the streets holding “The End
Devotional May 13th: Its Better to Have a Cute A** Than to Be One
This past weekend I went to Wheaton Academy in West Chicago to see Ballet 5:8 Present the Story of Daniel in Belteshazzar: A Perilous Tale (http://www.ballet58.org/performances/belteshazzar-a-perilous-tale-chicago-west-suburbs/2015).

Devotional 4/5: Opposite George Day
I was looking the other day at my childhood friend Mick’s mother, Sherry, on Facebook. She was giving a hug to my other friend Bob. Bob and Mick and I and others used to hang out. It was funny because Bob now has a white beard and a potbelly. He
Devotional March 18th: Why Can’t You Be Like Everyone Else?
A few weeks ago, I was talking to a person whom I have known for a long time and who lives far away. He was telling me about his son who is 32 and whom he feels is not “growing up” at the correct pace. His son is not married
Devotional March 3rd: We All Crap Our Pants When We Die, Thank God!
We are not God and God is different than us (Isaiah 55:8). Isn’t that something to be thankful for? I guess that is hard to understand if we believe that we are all there is. It is hard to understand if we believe that God is just something cavepeople made
Devotional Feb. 17: Take Me with a Grain of Salt
Are you one of those people who like to know what the people who disagree with you are saying? I do sometimes. I think it is important to have your perspective challenged and to learn what you can from others. Sometimes I get to see the other perspective even when
