Football fans from a few decades ago definitely would’ve given this title to the “Steel Curtain” (defensive line) of the 1970’s Pittsburgh Steelers. My dad and uncles would’ve given it to The Statler Brothers. But, believe it or not, there’s an even better one. I was watching a condensed replay of yesterday’s Washington-Atlanta NFL game […]
A post published probably a year or more ago proclaimed “Timing is EVERYTHING!” And a very recent post properly pointed to a certain politician (who’ll go unnamed in this post since I plan on preserving this place as predominantly politics-free) who announced a bid for president but chose to employ “NO DE-FENSE”. He just let […]
I’m rarely surprised by anything anymore, but one exception has been a handful of times when someone didn’t realize how much I (agape) loved and cared about them. Despite how kind and encouraging I was toward them, the fact is that a certain percentage of people are so focused on what’s in their head and […]
No, I’m not talking about the change of season, beautiful as that’s always been to behold. Nor Aaron Rodgers’ season-ending injury, sad as that physical fall was to watch and which is still echoing throughout the throngs of football fans across the nation and especially the New York/Jersey area. I’m talking about the massive increase […]
With the NFL season almost upon us, I recently took a tidbit of time to check out the trades and other roster changes (retirements, free agents, etc.) for several teams and on one of the sports news websites it highlighted the New England Patriots’ record during and after their Tom Brady era. As I’m sure […]
Harkening back to a common high school cheer at football and basketball games… “I say ‘No idols’, you say ‘No duh’, no idols, no duh, no idols, no duh…” But perhaps this topic isn’t so cut-and-dry, because it has become more and more obvious in recent years that, in practice, in essence, certain things have […]
The looming football season brings this thought with it: while the offense tends to get the vast majority of the glory and headlines and fans, it’s primarily the defense that wins games and especially championships. Because if a team can’t keep the opponent from scoring touchdown after touchdown after touchdown, it will lose. Even if […]
As you’ve probably noticed, this website focuses almost entirely on the Bible and Person of our wonderful Lord and Savior and faithful friend, Jesus Christ. In fact, pretty much the only time I mention anything else is when such serves to illustrate or explain an aspect of the Lord or the Bible or life. And it’s […]
In a previously-published post, I pointed to what I see as one of the most concerning things in the current Christian community and overall society, and that is a lack of discernment with the cited Bible verse of 1 Thessalonians 5:21. In the August 2023 issue of the Grace To You monthly newsletter, John MacArthur […]
In a previously-published post, I proffered a new “trio” of the stages of spiritual growth set forth in the Bible. Here’s another trio: those who practice… “active” > ”aggressive” (or “adamant”) > ”automatic” humility. There’s a thing called “active listening” which has become a big deal in recent years in consulting circles. It refers to […]
