This most recent Sunday morning my family stayed home from church. We also stayed home from church the Sunday before that. Before you go wondering, let me assure you our reasons for staying home were not anger and bitterness. The sky is blue, the grass is green, and Lauren is pregnant. And with pregnancy at…More
Oklahoma!
For this week’s Family Movie Night, we watched another Rodgers and Hammerstein’s musical – ‘Oklahoma!’ Having built up all my expectations off The Sound of Music and The King and I, this experience was not those. Or at a minimum, Oklahoma! is not The Sound of Music. For some idea of what I mean, check out this page for the 1955…More

The King and I
For this weekend’s family movie night, we watched The King and I (1956). Starring Yul Brynner as King Mongkut of Siam and Deborah Kerr as Anna Leonowens, this classic musical was another standby for me growing up. Lauren and the kids never having seen it before, they now can say they have seen it. And…More

Reverse Sexism in American Churches
According to Wikipedia, “reverse sexism” is defined as follows: “Reverse sexism is sexism directed towards men and boys. This form of sexism includes any form of prejudice or discrimination against men and boys. This can include stereotyping that may negatively impact men.” Without knowing there was a term for it, the concept has been on my…More
If China Deliberately Unleashed COVID
What if China did intentionally manipulate and then release COVID-19? Reporting from Ryan Saavedra at The Daily Wire today – Biden Admin: ‘We Haven’t Ruled Out’ Possibility That Pandemic From China Was Deliberately Unleashed. They will surely circle back on that one. Of course the anti-nationalist, anti-national self-interest, political and governing establishment – which resents and utterly…More
