About five years ago I wrote a post called, “Christmas as Invasion.” It made the point that one can legitimately view the birth of Jesus Christ as God’s invasion into the kingdom of darkness by the Kingdom of Light. https://kinshipradio.org/home/2017/11/30/christmas-as-invasion/ Many, many Christmas carols you hear on Kinship Radio sing of the Light […]
If I stop and think about it, I have innumerable blessings to be thankful for. Like almost everyone I know, I have been blessed in ways that even people a couple of generations ago could not have imagined. My life expectancy is over 79 years –more than a decade longer than it was […]
On Monday, Ryan Freed’s “Burning Question” on the morning show was, “What is your go-to pep talk?” What do you tell yourself when the chips are down, when you need inspiration, encouragement, and the will to just go on when life is hard? It was a good morning for that question. It […]
