End of the Year Musings
One of life’s little wonders is that during your sleep and at a very young age, you learned how not to fall out of your bed.
Julius Caesar thought elk have no knees.
A friend once posted a controversial point on Facebook. I disagreed and responded at length, explaining my disagreement. The friend responded; we volleyed a few times. Finally, frustrated that I still wasn’t persuaded, my friend wrote, “I don’t think Facebook is a good venue to facilitate conversation.”
Too many conservative Christians are motivated more by their fears about the end times than by faith in and reverence for Jesus Christ.
For some, "sophistication" seems to mean holding views that have no connection to observable reality.
Once a person decides to see you in a negative light, facts to the contrary make no difference.
There comes a time when refuting arguments is a waste of time—a time to stop talking and act. Your actions will demonstrate whose arguments were correct.
There are two ways to be humble. One may descend—or fall.
Is it that you are being ill-used by others, or that you just don’t like the hard sacrifices you must make to truly love others?
A good line from “The Chosen”: Jesus makes people what they aren’t.
In books and movies about time travel into the past, the time-traveler is warned that one small action may radically alter the future. But as we live life in the real world, we rarely consider that one small action may radically alter the future.
We must acknowledge the wisdom—and the ignorance—of our ancestors.
One thing you really can’t understand when you’re young is just how little time you have.
I am the author of several unwritten best-sellers.
