I've been working hard on this song with Folk Hymnal for almost two years. I would be honored and humbled if you gave it a listen. It's a folky song about how hard life can be. It's brutally honest and stubbornly hopeful. Enjoy! open.spotify.com/track/7GDTiQ...

With Christmas approaching, I'm going to be making some new hymn/carol art pieces. All the ones pictured here are for sale. Always open to custom orders as well. These would make a great Christmas gift or a nice addition to your Christmas decor. Message for deets.

We've recently started a sermon series at our church about anger. In 5+ yrs. of preaching, this sermon series has generated the most constructive feedback and conversations. I adapted the first sermon into a blog. What did I miss about anger? timbriggshere.medium.com/understandin...

One of the ways people deal with not being wanted is being needed. Some of us become social workers, doctors, counselors, even pastors. And we work out in adulthood what was missed in childhood, often as emotional adolescents.

Of all the critiques of Gen Z I read about, this one is rarely mentioned: their failure to love Lunchables as much as their Millennial elders. The next thing you’re going to tell me is that they don’t like Sunny D either. www.cnn.com/2024/11/25/b...
