Greetings, my sugar-amped iMonks. As you sneak another Snickers bar from your kids’ trick-or-treat bag, why don’t we discuss the sin of gluttony? Or the greater sin of you not sending me a big bag of Snickers. (Jeff Dunn, Tulsa, Oklahoma) Wait! Belay that bag of Snickers. I am trying to lose weight. And I’veContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 11.2.13”

The Homily
Then the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and keep it. The Lord God commanded the man, saying, “From any tree of the garden you may eat freely; but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat fromContinue reading “The Homily”
Saturday Ramblings 10.26.13
Greetings, fellow iMonks. Well now, it has been a week here at the iMonastery. We have harvested the fields and put up into barns and even started the canning process. All that is left now is the gleanings. And those we call our Saturday Ramblings. Well, let’s get right at it, ok? Mark Driscoll saidContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 10.26.13”
My Trouble With Scripture
I’m continuing with some thoughts on my journey out of evangelicalism into Catholicism. These are my thoughts, and this is my journey. I am certainly not trying to talk anyone into following in my steps. The morning after I became a Christian, I woke up and reached for my Bible. It was an old BibleContinue reading “My Trouble With Scripture”
The Homily
The Lord God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man whom He had formed. Out of the ground the Lord God caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge ofContinue reading “The Homily”

Welcome to our Saturday breakfast gathering here at the iMonastery. Grab a cup of coffee, a muffin, a donut, a couple of biscotti, some bacon and eggs, toast, pancakes, waffles, Frosted Flakes, juice, and a bottle of Tums. Everyone comfy? Good. It’s time to ramble … Our government is back to work. Are you happy?Continue reading “Saturday Ramblings 10.19.13”
The Homily
I have found myself starting most days by reading the homily delivered by Pope Francis during his daily Mass. This week he had this to say. Are you able to find the Word of God in the history of each day, or do your ideas so govern you that you do not allow the LordContinue reading “The Homily”
Saturday Ramblings 10.12.13
Take a look at the date today. What number is missing? Eleven? Ah, but it’s college football Saturday. And how many men are there per side in football? That’s right—eleven. So can we say today is 10 (11) 12 13? Sure we can. Because we know just how important numbers are to being a Christian,Continue reading “Saturday Ramblings 10.12.13”
The Homily
Delight yourself in the Lord; And He will give you the desires of your heart. (Psalm 37:4, NASB) But for all who did receive and trust in Him, He gave them the right to be reborn as children of God; He bestowed this birthright not by human power or initiative but by God’s will. (John 1:12, 13, The Voice) PerhapsContinue reading “The Homily”
Saturday Ramblings 10.5.13
It has been a wild week here at the iMonastery. There is considerable unrest here, to the point where we were afraid of an iMonk shutdown, just like our beloved federal goverment. The Iced Tea party was insisting on watching Wheel Of Fortune, while the Curly Wig party wanted to watch Family Feud. We settledContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 10.5.13”
