The #OldGal got an Easter treat with a victory, she pulled a 4. I know some #YoungPups dropped threes today. So they resurrected the team!


As the screen door slammed shut behind him an #eerie calm swept through him. A decision made, though life-changing, brought it’s own kind of relief. There was nothing to do now but move forward. He lifted his eyes from his feet and there she was, waiting for him.

The #OldGal also came in with a 3! Her grandchildren must have rejuvenated her, again.


There was a #twang of guilt as he opened the door and walked back into the house she had made a home. There was no turning back at this point, the decision had been made. After this conversation, nothing would ever be the same.

I’m quite happy with the new clean set up that I’ve implemented. Woo!

A simple clean homepage that points to the things: The Pastor Next Door


He inhaled the fresh evening air, tapped out his pipe, and turned on his heel. At the moment their eyes briefly met and neither were #dry. The tears that fell weren’t the kind coming from an inconsolable grief, but those that fell when there is a reconciliation with reality. #wss366 #MicroFiction


Today is one of my favorite days of the year!

The stage is set. #OpeningDay

The reorganization of “The Pastor Next Door” is up and running:

Essays Devotionals

The main hub will be The Pastor Next Door


I made some tweaks and today’s devotional link might be broken…

So here it is again: devotionals.danielmrose.com/2024/03/2…


Happy Opening Day to all who celebrate!

The #OldGal took me to task and rocked a 3 today! The grandkid bounce is real folks! #YoungPups we need a 2!


Good morning! Today is Maundy Thursday, may we consider the importance of community in our times of hardship. #MorningMug #MorningBlessing

I think, I am going to pull my long form writing out and post it on a dedicated subdomain. Now, what should I call it? Writing? Essays? I need y’all input.


She looked through her reflection out of the window and watched him pace. The decision to be made was his and his alone. Truth is both #ugly and beautiful. There is nothing more difficult than standing in the tension of the two. She wondered, could he hold the tension or not?

The #OldGal came in hot today with a 3! I am confident it is a grandchildren bump. She’s in Baltimore this week for Easter with my youngest brother’s family. #YoungPups, we are going to need a 2!


Good morning! On this Wednesday of Holy Week, may you consider the limitless faithfulness of the Divine. #MorningMug #MorningBlessing

I am thinking about how to better organize my content. Currently, danielmrose.com is my hub with short and long form posts (essays). I have thekjd.net that hosts my daily-ish Scripture reflections. I would welcome advice…


Now more than ever he wished the old man was still around. If anyone would know how to #caress the words needed it would have been him. These days, more than any others, the loss of the old man was like a chasm in his soul.
