That… Which Matters Most

  • Latest Selfie

    Sometimes, I get lucky. This latest selfie was taken in the process of making a video for my special education students on folding clothes. I took the picture so I could adjust the focus, and lighting, etc., for the video. I didn’t realize how good it would be. The video,… Listen ⇢

  • The Tradition

    The smell of frying  chili pablanos in the cast iron skillet saturated the apartment, and perhaps, even the neighbors apartments. It’s a strong smell, and one that I love. It reminds me of Thanksgivings at my mother’s home in Lufkin, TX during the 1980s and 1990s. We didn’t have the… Listen ⇢

    Someone quoted Psalm 94 on Facebook this morning, and that led Heidi and me to read it. It is probably not a psalm that many people know, given that it is focused upon God’s judgment against the wicked of the world, and His comfort toward the righteous. But it is… Listen ⇢

  • Reformation Day: A Mighty Fortress is Our God

    One cannot have a Reformation Day without singing Martin Luther’s most famous hymn, A Mighty Fortress Is Our God. For most of us who are Reformed, once we hear the title, the rest of verse 1 pops into our heads and we are ready to belt it out as Luther… Listen ⇢
