Passing on the things we've seen and heard...

I'm on a journey as we all are, but felt in September 2010 that I was learning too many incredible things about life to keep quiet about - and thus this site was born. I have tried to write each article/blog building on stuff previously discussed, so if you're not sure where I'm coming from with my more recent thoughts, I'd encourage you to look back on some of my earlier writings. See you on the road!

Suffering & Poverty vs. Health & Wealth

 
April 26, 2012

So here’s a question: I know of pastors who are rich, popular, drive Lexuses and live in nice houses.  I also know of pastors who have nothing, are hated by the world, and are being tortured and killed for their faith.   So…who’s more like Jesus? Believe it or not, depending on what kind of [...]

One-Liners That Helped Shape my Life

 
April 14, 2012

On my former site Funkonventionality, I had a page dedicated to quotes that I liked.  A lot of good came from updating to my current site (most notably, the ability to pronounce its name) but I still want to have those quotes out there, along with some new ones I haven’t shared yet.  The Bible, [...]

Sex, Virginity, Single-ness, and So On…

 
March 28, 2012

For the record, I am single, a virgin, and don’t exactly have experience in the topic I want to talk about today.  Which is kind of why I want to talk about it.  There’s a ton of young people out there who, I’m pretty sure, have the same questions and challenges that I face in [...]

True and False Humility…

 
March 5, 2012

When I was talking to Linda Chamagne, who had the most radical story of how her life was changed around, I asked if she’d be willing to let me interview her so I could share it.  I thought maybe she’d politely decline out of trying to be humble or something, but she said, “Absolutely.  It’s [...]

When You’re In the Valley…

 
February 9, 2012

I have begun to realize that every time I have truly put my trust in God to take me where He wants to take me in life, God ups the ante the next time  around.  It started when I knew I wanted to go to Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry in 2009, but had no [...]

So Church Messed You Up…

 
January 30, 2012

It’s funny how many kids grow up in church, have a fun time in youth group and singing in choir, and then ditch out when they hit the “real world”.  Do they suffer memory loss upon flying the coop?  Or are there deeper problems, problems that run deeper than we may realize? I am at [...]

Is God Really in Control?

 
December 17, 2011

In the Christian life, we often hear things like “all things work out for the good”, “God will have his way”, “There’s a reason for everything” (Justin Bieber was quoted as saying this when interrogated on his views on abortion in the instance of rape – interesting tidbit for ya), and so on.  There’s verses [...]

Society Contradicts Itself…

 
October 17, 2011

Picture this: two lovely houses sitting at the corner of Spadina and Pinehouse Drive.  One is the home of a wealthy doctor and his wife, four kids, a cocker spaniel, and a little plaque hanging on the wall thanking him for the large donation he made towards the much-needed ER downtown.  The other houses a [...]
