We All Have Goals

Mine is seeing the Anchoress at a Brian “Head” Welch concert:

Happy To Be Humbled

By Jerry Wilson, on May 28th, 2009%

An old friend newly made — she’s nowhere near old, but you get the idea — and dear sister in the Lord mentioned a Scripture yesterday: “Live in harmony with one another.  Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position [NOTE: This can also be translated as “willing to do . . . → Read More: Happy To Be Humbled

Priorities, Please

By Jerry Wilson, on May 18th, 2009%

There’s something a tad disconcerting about whether Maureen Dowd pinched something from a blog without giving it proper due being a hotter topic than Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visiting the White House today.  Punditry’s obsession with itself being its primary topic is hardly news, but given the gravity of the situation in the Middle East . . . → Read More: Priorities, Please

Thanks For The Outrage, But We’ve Ordered Already

By Jerry Wilson, on May 17th, 2009%

President Obama gave the commencement address at Notre Dame today, this causing great angst among the throng of people whose sole knowledge of said educational institution is that Catholics play football there.

Which is more than they know about Catholicism.

It’s amusing to see a group of people who individually and collectively don’t give Catholicism or Catholics the . . . → Read More: Thanks For The Outrage, But We’ve Ordered Already

Don’t Outlaw The Outlaw

By Jerry Wilson, on March 18th, 2009%

I sort of remember the ’60s.  No, not due to the (ahem) medicinal reasons which prompted Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane fame’s quip that if you remember the ’60s you weren’t there.  I turned eleven in 1970.  Just a tad premature for any chemical experiments, as if I would have done so anyway.  But I digress.

Defining And Defeating Divisions

By Jerry Wilson, on March 12th, 2009%

I was thinking about Hebrews 12:4-11 a while ago:

In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.  And you have forgotten that word of encouragement that addresses you as sons:

“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline,
and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,
because . . . → Read More: Defining And Defeating Divisions

Those Godless… Conservatives?

By Jerry Wilson, on January 12th, 2009%

Since the South Park Republican shtick has been losing steam post-election — let’s face it, there’s a limit to how many times one can recycle “be crude, be crass, be conservative” before you run out of material — it’s been interesting to note the growing trend of right-wing pundits proudly wearing their I ♥ Jesus badge . . . → Read More: Those Godless… Conservatives?

Uninvited Guest

By Jerry Wilson, on December 28th, 2008%

Picking up from yesterday:

The Oakland A’s are the red-headed stepchild of San Francisco Bay Area sports when it comes to local media attention.  Never mind how during their stay in the “other” city by the bay they’ve accomplished a feat never achieved by the Giants.  Namely, win something.  Four world championships, six American League pennants and . . . → Read More: Uninvited Guest

Telling Ourselves The Truth

By Jerry Wilson, on December 25th, 2008%

First and foremost, my prayer for you is that you are enjoying a blessed celebration of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ’s birth.  Way more important than politics.

Picking up from yesterday, it’s vital we go into the new year and the new administration committed to the truth.  It is easy to wave off with . . . → Read More: Telling Ourselves The Truth

Truth, Inconvenient And Otherwise

By Jerry Wilson, on December 24th, 2008%

Mrs. Dude and I have a Christmas Eve tradition of going out to a late lunch/early dinner, then to a movie.  It’s usually whichever Disney film is currently in the theaters.  Today was no exception.  The film we saw was Bolt.

The film itself is very good; a definite step up quality-wise from Disney’s other animated films . . . → Read More: Truth, Inconvenient And Otherwise
