Ambassador Chapter 2
Summer turned into autumn, and the months turned into years. Margie and I were watching Gigantor cartoons on the large black-and-white television after school. At 5:45 pm, we heard the footsteps at the back entrance. Father was home from work. “I can’t believe that bastard Larry, my boss,” Father’s voice thundered. “What happened?” Mother asked. … More Ambassador Chapter 2
Ambassador Chapter 1
A Novel I was four years old the first time I saw a swastika. As Father unlocked the door of our new house, I noticed a strange symbol embedded in the concrete surface next to the steps. It looked like a twisted cross made out of bricks. “What’s that?” I whispered to Mother. “That’s a … More Ambassador Chapter 1
Why I choose not to get the COVID-19 vaccine
Although President Trump announced “Operation Warp Speed” to distribute vaccines before he left office, I choose not to put an experimental vaccine into my body. The vaccine makers have been totally released from any liability if there is a negative side effect or death occurs from the vaccine. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines are mRNA. … More Why I choose not to get the COVID-19 vaccine
Poor Whites in the South, before the Civil War
There seems to be a stereotype that ALL white people before the civil war owned slaves and lived like Scarlet O’Hara. This is not true.

Detoxing from….a bad job
I haven’t blogged in months, it’s true, so hello readers! Years ago, when I left a bad job situation, it took me a while to process through all the emotions and anger, and I refer to this process as “Job Detox.” That is not to take away from the seriousness of drug and alcohol detox. … More Detoxing from….a bad job

The Red Sea Opened, but not right away
We remember the opening of the Red Sea, and the victory of the drowning of the Egyptians, but we forget the struggle that took place to get them to that point. God told Moses He was going to deliver the people from Egypt. But they didn’t walk out that day. Much struggle happened first. When … More The Red Sea Opened, but not right away

So the book fell open to the page…
where it talks about Solomon becoming king. Remember that Adonijah had proclaimed himself to be king, and gave himself a fake party, with fake officials and and a fake army. A fake inauguration.

Red Sea Moment
There’s lots of talk lately of a “Red Sea Moment” — when things look impossible, and they are. But GOD. Nothing is impossible for God.

Beginner’s Guide to The Art Of War
The “Beginner” is me! I finally got my hands on a copy of this timeless classic, first written somewhere between 700 and 279 B.C. Of course my copy is translated into American English. Translators of course will differ on their views. I am interested in “war” in both the physical and spiritual realms. At this … More Beginner’s Guide to The Art Of War
In The presence of his ememies

Noah’s Ark: It wasn’t just about the rain
We know that Noah built and ark, filled it with his family and lots of smelly animals. How much of this do we take on the “tradition” of what we are taught instead of looking at what it really says? I noticed something today that I never noticed before. 11 In the six hundredth year of … More Noah’s Ark: It wasn’t just about the rain
