Well Done Men

I don't think men look for encouragement or praise, because we're born to do whatever it takes. However, I know it makes us feel good to be recognized for our good work.

If God Is So....

Every time something bad happens, what's the first thing unsaved (and even some saved) people say? If God is so....(insert remark), why is this happening? Let me give some examples:

If God is so powerful, why does he allow sin to run amok?

If God is so merciful, why are people disabled?

If God is so this, that, and the third, why does he....(insert question)?

I want to be annoyed, and sometimes I am when folks ask these questions, but the simple answer I can come up with is this: We live in a fallen world, and a fallen world is going to have sin. I don't like it either, and even though I appreciate God sending his son to die on the cross, I still hold Adam & Eve responsible for sin entering this world because they allowed themselves to be deceived.

Saturday Night Gospel

This is how you knew music was good

Back in the day, songs were so good they were 7 to 8 minutes long. 4 minutes of singing, the instrumental played for the remainder.

John "James Evans" Amos speaks with Fathers Incorporated on Responsible Men

I remember John Amos from Coming To America, when he played Mr. McDowell. Before that, he played James Evans on Good Times. He said some real stuff in this video.

To Get Grace, You Have To Give It

People want grace when they’re wounded, but don’t extend that same grace when someone else is hurting.

Hustlers Don't Sleep

I thought I could get up consistently at 3:30am during the week, now I'm used to waking up at 3am, but that's because I go to bed between 8-8:30am during the week. With that said:

Boy Scouts vs. Girl Scouts

There's a reason boys and girls have different scout troops.

Girls have Girl Scouts, Boys have Boy Scouts. Tell me why girls want inclusiveness in Boy Scouts? I'll wait.
