“Tarshish? Yeah, we’re going to Tarshish. What you need us to take there for ya?” “Just me.” Jonah watched the crew loading crates below deck. The captain looked at Jonah’s small pack. “You sure do travel light.

IT’S YOU SIR
Nathan paused when he approached the throneroom door. “LORD, give me the strength to do Your work here.” He pulled the door open and walked up to King David. David smiled and cocked his head to the left. “Nathan, I didn’t expect you today. To what do I owe this pleasure?” “There were two men.… Continue reading IT’S YOU SIR
Time To Go Home
“What have you two done? Everybody’s going to gang up on us and destroy us in no time.” Jacob fell back in his chair. Levi stepped forward. “We are not going to let any man treat our baby sister like a piece of trash to be used for his pleasure.” Simeon grabbed Levi’s shoulder. “The… Continue reading Time To Go Home
LAUGHTER FOLLOWED BY A DISMISSAL
Abraham smiled broadly as Jesus approached. Jesus’s smile was just as big. “So, how’s that baby boy doing?” “He’s just finishing up another feeding.

She bowed to the men before she went… Continue reading LAUGHTER FOLLOWED BY A DISMISSAL
Road rage set to a classic Christmas carol: Honk, your semi’s in my lane.
I was pretty sure my days driving in heavy traffic had settled me into a place of complacency. So, as a test, I decided to set up my camcorder to check on myself.

THE WOES
Thadeus rushed to his room in the temple square. He removed the heavy scribe’s robe and changed into pain clothes. He pried the door open and waited until the outside conversation carried past the street corner. Once clear of the scribe’s quarters he worked his way back to the temple. Pressing through the crowd he… Continue reading THE WOES
NO FRUIT
“Do you think they’ll make their move today?” Matthew glanced at Thomas. Thomas shrugged. “Don’t know. I doubt it, but who knows?” Jesus led His disciples from Bethany to Jerusalem. Their shadows grew shorter with each step. Jesus stepped off the road and headed to a fig tree. “I hope He finds enough for all… Continue reading NO FRUIT
How do people show they’re happy?
Here we are the last day of the month of August. I hope you knew this was “Admit You’re Happy Month.” No, well shame on you. I personally don’t know why only one month is set aside for admitting one is happy. We should feel free to admit we’re happy every single day we’re able… Continue reading How do people show they’re happy?
Jesus Christ did have a sense of humor.

Are you as tired of Christians who live by a double standard as I am?
Here’s my monthly humor video. This time I got as much mileage out of the grey beard that grew in this fall as I possibly could. Now I have a new appearance (that’s actually my old appearance) for the new year with its new attitude and hope fully a much better outcome over last year.… Continue reading Are you as tired of Christians who live by a double standard as I am?
