“Sooner or later the world must burn, and all things in it—all the books, the cloister together with the brothel, Fra Angelico together with the Lucky Strike ads which I haven’t seen for seven years because I don’t remember seeing one in Louisville. Sooner or later it will all be consumed by fire and nobodyContinue reading “Quotes”

Difficult Scriptures: John 6:52-69
The Jews began to quarrel with each other. They said, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?†Jesus told them, “I can guarantee this truth: If you don’t eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you don’t have the source of life in you. Those who eat myContinue reading “Difficult Scriptures: John 6:52-69”
Help, Please
Update: As of Monday night, we have received more than $900 in donations for the Palmers. Thus we are more than halfway toward getting a new laptop to replace the one stolen from Adam Friday night. I want to thank each of you for your generosity, both in money and in praying for the Palmers.Continue reading “Help, Please”
Saturday Ramblings 6.11.11
A hearty Rambler thanks to Adam Palmer for filling in last week in a great way. I was “on assignment,” watching my niece graduate from high school, visiting family, and spending a great day with some of my fellow iMonks. First Lady Denise Spencer, Chaplain Mike and his wife Gail, and Lisa Dye all gatheredContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 6.11.11”
IM Review: Ghost Rider
So there I was in New York City for a book convention, staying in a hotel in Times Square. The first night I walked down the street and found a Virgin Music Store. In the lower level of this store were several shelves of books, including one by Neil Peart, the drummer for the CanadianContinue reading “IM Review: Ghost Rider”
Saturday Ramblings 5.28.11
Greetings, iMonks. Once again we have reached the week’s end. Every time we have a Friday, Saturday invariably follows. I like Saturdays. They’re great for hiking, yard work, running to the big box home improvement store to buy things for the yard, wondering why after applying weedkiller my grass is not growing but the weedsContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 5.28.11”
Graduation Day
This is a fun time of year when we get to celebrate with those graduating from high school or college. I will be traveling to Ohio next week to take part in my niece’s high school graduation. You may be attending graduations or open houses in the next few weeks yourself. It really is aContinue reading “Graduation Day”
Saturday Ramblings 5.21.11
Welcome to the Judgment Day edition of Saturday Ramblings. You’ll want to read quickly today—it wouldn’t do to not be finished with the Ramblings before 6 p.m. Pacific today, would it? Of course, those on the east coast have time for dinner and a movie before we’re all … uh, what is it we’re allContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 5.21.11”
From The Desk Of The Publisher
Howdy all. This is your friendly publisher—the abbot of the iMonastery, if you will—paying you a visit to catch you up on a few things here at the Internet Monk. Some of you may be relatively new visitors to our site, while others have been here for many years. All are welcome, especially those whoContinue reading “From The Desk Of The Publisher”
Changing Churches
I live in a city where changing churches is an art form. Those who have been in their same church for ten or more years are as rare as an Oklahoman who doesn’t like football (which is the unofficial state religion). They are as rare as an Arkansan with a full set of teeth. WhenContinue reading “Changing Churches”
