A lot of us Christians haven’t read what happens after the feeding of the multitudes, and it shows.

I just heard a fantastic quote on a podcast from Jonah Goldberg, “One bad guy with a nuke ruins it for everyone.”

This was in the context of ethical questions regarding the development and use of AI.

Sometimes you go to the gym because it is just good for you. It’s not easy. But it’s the right thing.

The #OldGal with a strong showing today by scoring a 4. She defeats me. Are there any #YoungPup 3s?

Good morning! May you choose to respond with loving kindness to the circumstances you find yourself in today. #MorningMug

In the quest to press against rising authoritarianism (for this is indeed what we are seeing and it is reminiscent of the similar rise that took place post WWI in the US as well) in the United States the hardest part is differentiating the signal from the noise.

A key strategy for the authoritarian is to flood the zone with noise so that their political enemies and the public are distracted from the things that matter.

When everything is a crisis, nothing is a crisis.

When the real crisis comes it is ignored because it gets lumped into all the other noise.

Be wise. Be discerning. Be vigilant.

A five from the #OldGal this morning too. I am hopeful for the #YoungPups to come through!

Good morning! The picture doesn’t do the sky justice this morning. It is overwhelmingly beautiful. May you glimpse the beauty around you today. #MorningMug

It’s pretty humbling to see how AI takes your sermon transcript and edits down from 4300 words to 700.

The #OldGal has posted a 4, while crushing me, she stood no chance to myriad of 3s from the #YoungPups!

Good morning! May you be fully present with those around you today. #MorningMug

The #OldGal also birdied today with a 3 of her own. Hopefully, we score a lucky 2 by a #YoungPup.

Good morning! May you seek to be the good in someone’s day. #MorningMug

Watching your kid play baseball on your TV in a warm living room is pretty great.
