I had prostate cancer and now I don't.  This is the story of my personal journey from a cancer diagnosis in January 2022 and what led me to the treatment option I chose in July 2023.    #prostate, #cancer, #prostate cancer, #laser ablation

It helps to know a little about the history of Israel in order to better understand the current war with Hamas.  A brief history from Abraham until present day, followed by commentary and opinion on the current situation. #Hamas Thanks for listening!

My longest podcast to date. The first half is about Jesus's sermon on the mount which led to a discussion of self righteousness and why modern day journalists feel no regrets over pushing a political agenda

Christmas is two weeks away! Are you ready? I include a brief shoutout to the YouTube series "Sh%t Southern Women Say." Here's the link:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUFL2GT1-2g . A shoutout to the 1965 special "A Charlie Brown Christmas" too!

Remembering my friend Tim Dellinger.  I attended his funeral service today and wanted to share some thoughts about him, and his spiritual gift of exhortation and encouragement.

You can get work done any two of three ways, but not all three

The first guilt-free large family gathering since Covid. The four-day weekend, food, family, and football.  If you're sad around the holidays, you're not alone. It's normal to get a little melancholy around the holidays

The Red Wave never happened. The Democrats were just as surprised by it as the Republicans were.  Here is my take on where the Republicans went wrong.

From this week's Sunday morning political shows the Democrat buzz words for this week will be "dereliction of duty" and "failed coup" as related to the January 6th committee hearings, and continual denial of the downward spiral of the US economy under Joe Biden.  Al Gore also made the rounds this week pushing for the elimination of fossil fuels.

The Left Hook is what I'm calling my take on the talking points from the Sunday morning political shows the day before (7-10-2022) I talk about the democrat slants and talking points the media will be using in their reports in the upcoming week    Thank you for listening!

Gas prices are intentionally high.  It's not Covid, nor the war in Ukraine, it's the "green energy initiatives" to reduce fossil fuels.  Biden reinstalled the Obama bureaucrats and climate change fanatics that caused the 2008 recession and they're making the same bad economic decisions they made back then.  The high cost of fuel is driving inflation and causing the same type of economic chaos that it did twelve years ago.

In this episode I will tell you why homegrown tomatoes are better than store bought and ten times better than the tomatoes they put on fast food burgers.  There really is a reason!  Listen and find out why.

Planting with a purpose.  I planted a tree over twenty years ago to shade my living room from the morning sun.  I was intentional about what I planted and where I planted it.  We all plant seeds, intentional or not, and they are going to grow.  Shouldn't we be intentional?

If you want to know why some of us don't want the shot, I explain why I don't want it.  I can't speak for anyone else.  It's not political, I promise, but if you are politically liberal, you may take it that way.  The actual explanation starts around six minutes in if you want to skip ahead.    Thanks for listening!

The Canadians opened their border to US citizens, but we didn't open ours to Canadians.  Why not?  Why couldn't we close the border with Mexico?  Tell me again how our Covid response isn't political.

There was no gasoline shortage.  The gas stations ran out of gas because of panic buying.  Just like toilet paper last year, and bread and milk during a snow storm, the news media yelled fire in a crowded movie house and created a panic.

This episode is a little bit of a departure from my normal episodes.  It's a little bit of a tirade on how greed allowed manufacturers to put profit above all else and allowed accountants to run their companies.  I talk about accountants, CPAs, MBAs, large corporations at the beginning of the episode and end with an example of how a small company became a big company, then sold out for profit.  That's what has happened to American manufacturing!

This episode is NOT about rich people.  I talk about the parable of the shepherd leaving the ninety-nine sheep to look for the one that was lost, and the story of the prodigal son and what happens to the one may not be important to the ninety-nine, but it's vitally important to the one.

Happy Mother's Day!  I talk about the holiday itself, my mom, and how a mother's love can't be compared with any other kind of love.  Mom loves you.  She always has and always will.

"I didn't mean to hurt you" is not really an apology.  It's almost passive aggressive.  It's like saying, I'm not really sorry for what I did.  I'm just sorry you couldn't handle it.
