There is a lot going on in the world, the country, and life in general, so here are an assorted collection of thoughts on them all:
It’s beyond understanding, to me, how far dictators will go to remain in power. We are seeing evidence of that in Myanmar where it has taken 10 days for the [...]
I want to take a pause from the WVU Scandal - trust me, we will return to in short time - to talk about something personal for a moment.
Today, is a very special day in my life, the life of my family, and the life of my friends. In a few short hours, I’ll stand [...]
First, I’m blamed for global warming.
Now, I’m blamed for the country’s economic woes.
A new study by Institute of American Values, Institute for Marriage and Public Policy, Families Northwest, and the Georgia Family Council, divorce and out-of-wedlock childbirths cost the American people $112 billion annually.
My bad. Can we stop blaming my divorce on the world’s environmental [...]
Five States. More than a thousand miles on the old pick-up. And a couple hundred donated to those poor, starving oil companies.
I have returned to the Wilmore Bubble after a six-day vacation that took me to where I grew up in West Virginia, where I call home in North Carolina, the Smoky Mountains, and parts [...]
I’ve been waiting for this trip for about two months now. Actually, 11 months - but who is counting? Today, I get to hold my niece for the very first time. I can’t wait.
Sometime in a little bit, I’m going to head to West Virginia to see my niece and my brother. I’ve not had [...]
Many of my friends and family (hey, they’re all family in a way) read this blog from back in my new native of North Carolina since I left North Carolina in August to attend seminary. I also know many of my seminary friends check in from time to time to see what I’m coming up [...]
This is not been a great week by any stretch of the imagination. Perhaps that is partly why I haven’t posted at all here lately. At one point, I entertained the idea of shutting down this blog - yeah, it’s been that bad. I’ve gone from restful estatic to full of no energy and wondering [...]
This is sort of a hodge podge of a blog to clear out some interesting and wonderful moments that happened over the weekend. Enjoy!
Yesterday, was perhaps the happiest day of my life in quite some time.
I became an uncle to one of the most beautiful babies I’ve ever seen. My sister-in-law gave birth to a [...]
I have a question.
Why is it every time you take some time off, you need a vacation from that time off? For the past eight days, I’ve been in West Virginia visiting family. The first few days were spent dealing with the loss of my aunt - whom I’ve realized lately how proud she was [...]
I’ve learned a big lesson about seminary education thus far these past few days. Even though I’m out of Kentucky Mayberry, away from the classrooms, the lectures, the exegesis papers, there is still opportunity for learning what it means to be a minister and serve others in the name of our Lord. This became clear [...]
