This month, I published what is my 10th poetry collection. Best of Me: New & Selected Poetry marks the occasion by beginning with about 100 new poems and then picks up in part two with the best poetry from the past 20+ years.

Poem: My Pleasure
Another poem from my collection called Rhyme & Reason.
Keeping No Record of Wrongs
C. S. Lewis said of Christianity, “It is a religion that you could not have guessed…it is not the sort of thing anyone would have made up. It has just that queer twist about it that real things have. So let us leave behind all thee boys’ philosophies – – these over simple answers. TheContinue reading “Keeping No Record of Wrongs”
The Difference With Jesus – My Boyfriend’s Example
Life is hard. We have struggles. There is hardship. We experience grief and stress. We live in a fallen world and it’s evident every single day. And yet there’s a remarkable difference in the attitude of people who go through these times with Jesus as opposed to without. You can think of persecuted Christians aroundContinue reading “The Difference With Jesus – My Boyfriend’s Example”

It would be required by the antichrist, the end times tyrant that would preceed the Second Coming.Continue reading “The Mark”
Review: Before the Wrath
As events around the world descend into absolute madness, there has been an increased interest among Christians and non-Christians regarding end time prophecy in the Bible. But despite this, churches have more and more shied away from discussing prophecy. However, nearly 30% of the Bible is prophecy, including those that were fulfilled during Biblical timesContinue reading “Review: Before the Wrath”
The Right of Life
Everyone is discussing the recent reversal of Roe v. Wade here in the United States. However, I’ve noticed a few things missing from the debates. I start by saying I’m unapologetically prolife. I subscribe to Ron Paul’s libertarian definition of being a prolife libertarian. I support freedom, including the freedom of the unborn to theirContinue reading “The Right of Life”
