It seems like a long time since I posted a personal update on this my personal blog. So I’m delighted to take some time to update you on things. First of all, I’m delighted to say that I am doing well health-wise. In the second half of February I had some brief skirmishes with flu […]
Read More Dryden Update – MarchJesus and the Pharisees. It’s fair to say they were not the best of friends. It’s also fair to say Jesus did not have a problem expressing what his problem was with the Pharisees. Get this though. Why did Jesus spend so much words and efforts on folks evidently hell-bent on seeing Him as a […]
Read More Inside FirstJohn D. Baptist was very brave. I mean who eats locusts? And honey? Who does that? But there is John having them as his diet. I wonder if he had Locust Pies? Locust Fillet? Pomme du Locusts? It’s a tough diet, but the brother stuck to it to his credit. So it’s got to take […]
