Turning 51 is really nothing special. Last year was a milestone–5-0. Last year was a party in the backyard, friends coming from all over to celebrate, gifts and cakes and all-day fun. This year is cutting grass, cleaning the garage and working on iMonk site stuff that is overdue. Hey, it has to be doneContinue reading “What I Wish I Knew My First 50 Years”

Saturday Ramblings 7.17.10
Ok, first off: Bucky is the smart-aleck cat. Satchel is the intelligent but not world-wise dog. And Rob is their loving but frequently frustrated owner. Get Fuzzy–the best writing in comic strips today. Some of you will say, “I don’t get it.” Read it again. Still don’t get it? Sigh…It’s time for Saturday Ramblings. ThisContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 7.17.10”
Help! For Help?
Editor’s note: The following comment was recently posted to an essay we ran called Those Who Dance Are Considered To Be Insane By Those Who Cannot Hear The Music. Here is what Help? wrote: I wish I knew God like you do….Could hear His voice. I feel like an Israelite, sitting in the camp, waitingContinue reading “Help! For Help?”
Those Who Dance Are Considered To Be Insane By Those Who Can’t Hear The Music
And the word of the Lord was rare in those days; there was no frequent vision. (1 Samuel 3:1, ESV) For so many of my almost 37 years following the Lord, there has been no frequent vision, at least not for me. My “words from the Lord” have come through sermons and books I read.Continue reading “Those Who Dance Are Considered To Be Insane By Those Who Can’t Hear The Music”
Saturday Ramblings 7.10.10
It’s been a rainy week here at the Oklahoma branch of the iRanch. Mushrooms are popping up on the lawn like, um, like mushrooms on a lawn after a week of rain. Time to get out the wood, nails, and hammer and start to work on the Ark. What? Directions? Men don’t use directions. Sure,Continue reading “Saturday Ramblings 7.10.10”
Jesus And Kids
I was already feeling rather sick to my stomach. Maybe it was the fact that Ohio heat and humidity run hand-in-hand, and this day both were running in the mid-90s. Maybe it was the fact that I had only gotten three hours of sleep the night before—to go along with the three the night beforeContinue reading “Jesus And Kids”
Saturday Ramblings 7.3.10
After a heady week here at iMonk of creation wars and Christian arts, Jeff Dunn swooned with the vapors and had to lie down for a bit, leaving the Saturday-themed rambling up to me, Adam Palmer. Shall we? As long as we’re on the subject of Creation Wars, let’s begin with this story that tellsContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 7.3.10”
Surprise! God Does Art
In my previous essay we looked at the culture of Jesus junk. I tried to say things in a nice way–maybe I was too nice. I still have many friends in publishing, in broadcasting, in music production and distribution. Many friends who seek to follow the Lord from their hearts, yet sometimes have to holdContinue reading “Surprise! God Does Art”

Saturday Ramblings 6.26.10
Yawn. Kind of a slow week here at the iRanch. Methinks many of you took the week to vacate. And it looks like you picked up  a few souvenirs along the way. Salt and pepper shakers. Tacky t-shirts. Toothpick holders. Saltwater taffy. So as a way to welcome you back to civilization, we present yourContinue reading “Saturday Ramblings 6.26.10”
