Valentine’s Day 1996: the dangers of groupthink
My wife and I have been married for 26 years and have dated for 28 years. To this day, we have never celebrated Valentine’s Day. Well, we tried once, it didn’t go well, we agreed to never do it again. The year: 1996. We had been dating for about five months. So it was our […]

Apple Vision Pro: The Real Costs
Yes, I bought an Apple Vision Pro. I woke up on January 19 to place my preorder and picked it up last Friday, February 2. Many people were shocked when I said I was going to buy one because of the astronomical list price. What I didn’t really say but I’ll share with you is […]

Three Things I Learned at the Urinal
When you are as curious as I am, there are learning opportunities everywhere—even in the bathroom. Lately, when I go to a public restroom, I am reminded of three important leadership lessons. I don’t know where your mind is going but stay with me here. Public men’s restrooms typically have urinals, which are basically […]

8 Video Conference Games to Liven Up Your Online Group Meeting
As my youth groups at Life Connection Church start meeting again–online, of course–we have to start coming up with games that we can play via video conferencing.* I haven’t found a good list. So, I had to put one together and make some up myself. It’s a pretty good list of games–if I do say […]

Video Conferencing Options: My Quick Take
For the uninitiated, Zoom, Skype, Google Meet, WebEx, GoToMeeting, FaceTime, and a myriad of others are online video conferencing systems. Choosing which to use can be quite overwhelming. For me, the biggest factor is how easy it is for other people to connect. That comes down to whether they need an account and whether they […]

Spending Time Together
My wife wears a watch. I don’t. That‘s a hint but there is more to how we approach time. A few weeks ago, we started doing a study called “Your Time-Starved Marriage” by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott as preparation for becoming empty nesters. It was sort of like getting the car inspected before a […]

My First Year of Bullet Journaling
On New Year’s Day, I and an anonymous community whom I’ll never meet all shared in a common activity. I sat at my desk (others on beds, floors, sofas or maybe even toilets) to close out my 2016 Bullet Journal and to begin my 2017 Journal. What is a Bullet Journal? Before I describe bullet […]

Why Global Warming Might Not Matter: A Word for Ideologues
Just to get it out there, I don’t really care about Global Warming and, regardless of how you feel about it, that shouldn’t bother you one bit. To be fair, I would care more if I knew what I should believe. (And I would know what I should believe if I cared more.) I’m reminded […]

Why Every Christian Should Join a Church
Over the past few months, I feel like I’ve been talking about church membership more frequently. Most times it has been just sharing my thoughts with a few guys I’m discipling, but a couple times it has been almost a combative defense of church membership. The Bible is clear that Christians are not supposed to […]
