Hannah Montana and the State of Morality in America
Image via Wikipedia This story is sad, but not sad in a sorrowful way. No it’s a sad commentary on the state of morality or ethics in America. It’s bad enough that a kid would lie on an essay in order to win tickets to a Hannah Montana concert. What’s worse is that her mom [...]
A Good Christmas
I am much more likely to use “One Thing I Know” as a place to complain and whine than I am to post happy thoughts, so I thought tonight I would try to balance the scales a little bit by telling you that I had a very good Christmas this year. I received some great [...]

Understanding Joseph – My Sermon for This Morning and for 11 pm Christmas

A Great Quote from Rowan Williams
