For All He’s Done

Posted on December 30, 2022No Comments on For All He’s Done

As the year comes to an end, I feel compelled to say something I’ve not said nearly enough: I’ve been very blessed, especially over the course of the past year. Even when I don’t appreciate it (which is about 95% of the time) or deserve it (which is 100% of the time), God is extremely … Continue reading For All He’s Done

Like a Good Neighbor

Posted on January 15, 2022January 15, 2022No Comments on Like a Good Neighbor

Imagine you’re raising a family in a little suburban home, with a well-to-do neighbor on either side. (Some of you may not have to imagine, but you can still play along.) The neighbor on the left is sophisticated and amiable and smiles a lot. He often talks about having you over for dinner, and he … Continue reading Like a Good Neighbor

Real Resolution

Posted on January 1, 2022January 2, 2022No Comments on Real Resolution

                Last year, everyone was celebrating to see the end of 2020. Surely 2021 couldn’t be as bad, they said… and on some level it wasn’t. But there are other metrics by which it was certainly worse. All that said, I never cared much for the running joke that 2020 was such an awful year … Continue reading Real Resolution

In All Things…

Posted on November 21, 2021April 30, 2022No Comments on In All Things…

I had a bad day. There were no tragedies. Nothing serious happened. It just didn’t go well, and it left me in a mood that will probably affect the next few days. Even worse, I’ve got things weighing on my mind that have been bothering me for months or years – and at least one … Continue reading In All Things…

When the World Stopped Turning

Posted on September 11, 2021September 11, 2022No Comments on When the World Stopped Turning

I remember that morning. I was doing schoolwork in the kitchen, with the rest of my family going about their daily business as usual. My dad came into the room to ask my mom if she knew that the country was on high alert; she did not, of course, but he had just been on … Continue reading When the World Stopped Turning

The Right Reason

Posted on August 2, 2021September 6, 2021No Comments on The Right Reason

In previous posts, I gave my general opinion on American politics – and on the left in particular. But I didn’t specifically address conservatism, so I would like to round out the conversation by doing that. To begin with, I’m not going to pretend that anyone would be wrong to associate me with conservatives; but … Continue reading The Right Reason

No Good Reason

Posted on June 23, 2021June 23, 2021No Comments on No Good Reason

In my previous post, I spoke of politics in terms of liberal and conservative, rather than Democrat and Republican. That’s because my chief focus was on philosophy, not on party. But since left and right in our society are virtually synonymous with the two major parties, I may as well address the elephant in the … Continue reading No Good Reason

Conserving Liberalism

Posted on June 21, 2021No Comments on Conserving Liberalism

The terms “liberal” and “conservative” are obviously relative; what’s liberal in one century might be conservative in the next. But one thing remains essentially the same: conservatives fight change and liberals fight for it. How we judge the liberalism or conservatism of any time or place ultimately depends on what’s being changed. If it’s good, … Continue reading Conserving Liberalism
