Rubbing It In
My Canadian friends are reminding me that Winter is nowhere near over. I read news reports of record low temperatures in Texas. Weather seems to be a topic of conversation everywhere. Most of the time the comments aren’t complimentary. Not wanting to make anyone envious (or maybe I do), it appears Winter is over where […]
Speaking Your Truth
You’ve heard people say it. You may even have agreed with it. “Speak your truth.” “I needed to speak my truth.” It is time to confess: I’m getting so tired of “truth.” I want to but all these truth-speakers a dictionary so they can look up the word. “your truth” just doesn’t exist. Neither does […]
Thursday’s COVID Smiles
These days we all need something to laugh at – or with. But if we, did people would complain about our leaders jumping the queue. Though during a pandemic, wouldn’t we want to make sure the people in charge could do their job?
Government Logic
What restrictions has the government put on you during this pandemic. Do they make sense? I understand the need to limit the spread of COVID-19. but there are times I question the methodology chosen by our political leaders.

Churches must remain closed. But restaurants can re-open. Algeria has ratified the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, guaranteeing the right to freedom of religion, including […]

Not that I endorse its message completely. It seems somewhat dated. I agree we should focus on what is important, though it would help […]
The Buckle Church – A Replay
I thought today perhaps we’d take a look back to the days when people could travel, and could attend church services. You remember what this time last year was like? Neither do I. But I did remember this post from six years ago, and thought it would be nice to share again today. Anything free […]
How To Vaccinate
When are you getting the COVID-19 vaccine? Have you been told? Does it seem like it is taking too long? I am way down the list. It will be summer when I get the shot. Doesn’t seem to make any difference whether I get it in Canada or Germany, I’m not a high priority. I’m […]
Does It Matter?
The second impeachment trial of Donald Trump is underway in the US Senate, and all the experts are saying he will be acquitted. Not because he isn’t guilty, but because most Senators will vote according to political loyalties rather than the evidence presented. Because of that I haven’t been following the proceedings beyond reading the […]
