Reading, theology, cooking, college sports (Razorbacks), and trivia. I went to Bible college and somehow left without a spouse. Got one later, though. Gumbo Tour, 2018-2025. My dad makes better red beans and rice than yours.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

Alert the sororities of America, I've got a great idea - a recruitment video with approximately 200 white girls dancing in front of their house. Not dancing too well, mind you. Just...kinda bouncing? Bonus points if the video kicks off with a wobbly cartwheel. I take checks and Venmo.

1. This week, the FBI released its comprehensive crime report for 2024, which revealed that both VIOLENT CRIME and PROPERTY CRIME reached their LOWEST LEVELS SINCE THE 1960s
This a massive story. But you might not have heard about it, even if you follow the news closely.

Why you might not know that 2024 was America's safest year since the 1960s
An overwhelming majority of Americans, 64 percent, believe that crime increased across the country in 2024, according to a Gallup survey conducted late last year.

Read some new historical fiction this week, then saw this quote from the author - "If you’ve read Harry Turtledove but wished for more emotional depth and philosophical weight, this is the evolution you’ve been looking for." That's a big shot to take, but especially if you miss by a mile.

If your youth pastor isn't dumping plastic eggs from a helicopter, is your church even really celebrating Easter?

It’s weird this has to be said but… there is no “warrior culture” in following Jesus.
Sure, Christianity & Christendom have made room for that.
But it’s VERY plainly not there in the story of the dude who rebuked a follower for drawing and using a sword as he was arrested.
