  • Ask For Help Early

    There are a lot of life lessons to learn from working in a commercial kitchen. One of them is how to avoid getting “in the weeds” — both in the kitchen and in real life. “In the weeds” pretty much means you are buried and going down fast. You are… →

  • A First For Me

    Sunday morning was a first for me… I was preaching at a local church in Hartford. My sermon was titled “Joy, Joy, When There Is No Joy” — in other words, how do you “rejoice in all things” (as the Apostle Paul says) when you don’t feel joyful? … →

  • Maybe I’m Bi

    I have great respect for those who are bi — especially pastors. In fact, some of the most godly and effective pastors I have ever known are bi. Bivocational, that is. Bivocational pastors are those who work a “tent making” job (either part time o… →

  • Freedom

    As many of you know, I wasn’t totally thrilled with the meeting I had last week. But, in many ways it accomplished what I had hoped — at least in a sense. I have talked before about the nature of forgiveness and “being bound” (here). I have also … →
