Last Sunday, while billions gathered around the globe to celebrate Easter and Passover, a significant people group was unable to gather… unable to praise in any pew, sing any song, nor break any sacred bread together. Multiple, coordinated bombs exploded in Sri Lanka Sunday morning, killing more than 300, injuring

So many days something gets in the way… … a like experience gets in the way of allowing another’s outcome to be different… … a like emotion gets in the way of our perception being objective… … independence gets in the way of relying on who may be wiser… … and intelligence gets

What’s it going to take to get our attention? We have Democrats and Republicans, continually casting the whole other side as evil. We have genders and ethnicities and all sorts of demographics who continually boost self and the identity in their politics by means of denigrating and denouncing the

So many good lines… all from the same movie… Perhaps you remember. Perhaps you do not. Bruce Nolan, a fed-up reporter, cries out to God, demonstrably sharing that God isn’t doing his job; in fact, if God is somehow doing it, he certainly isn’t doing a very

Four years ago, we introduced the concept of the “keystroke mentality.” I was reminded, watching a plethora of college sports the past 48 hours… _____ “I fear we might be close to teetering on total, civility failure. The idiots are getting far too big a voice nowadays,” said Joe Tessitore of

One of the best parts of the annual NCAA basketball tournament is its clear manifestation of diversity. Too often too many inaccurately boast of their all-accepting, diverse nature; then they reject the one who does not embrace diversity, meaning the original boaster isn’t as diverse as he or
