To make an idealist cry

A DEAR FRIEND OF MINE left me crying yesterday. Not on purpose. And not a bawling cry. Just a wiping tears away so I could keep watching the video. There I was, working on the Casual English Bible, paraphrasing Proverbs 7, which is an old man’s …

Wisdom was here and gone

WELL, THIS IS A TURNING POINT. I’m still working bugs out of the Casual English Bible New Testament, but I’ve taken the plunge into Proverbs. I’ve been a plow horse chomping on the bit to get going with Proverbs. I feel this book. …

Watch Easter videos, get a book

HERE’S THE DEAL. Watch at least three of the Easter season videos I’ve created, pick a favorite or the least-bad one, and get a free book. As a bonus, I’ll let you see one of my favorite family videos of all time. My dance with my daughter. With this …

Feeling a little afeard

THIS IS WHAT A BLOG ARTICLE LOOKS LIKE when the writer doesn’t know where he’s going, beyond saying that he is afraid. I have four grandchildren ages four and under. My two grandsons have a mom, my daughter, who works in a …

What I thought I knew about crucifixion

I HAD TO ERASE FROM MY HEAD the picture I had of Jesus nailed to a cross. That’s after spending a year researching my book, Eyewitness to Crucifixion. Four Gospel writers reporting eyewitness accounts of the crucifixion of Jesus don’t describe the …

Dodging the plague while paraphrasing the Bible

I FINISHED the Casual English Bible‘s beta edition of the New Testament in time for a pandemic plague. I don’t know what to make of that. I finished the paraphrase. Maps. Discussion questions. Downloadable PDF’s of the …

Though shelves are empty…

WE ARE ON THE RAZOR’S EDGE OF APOCALYPSE, it seems. We can fall back to normalcy or we can tumble into chaos. It’s scary what this coronavirus is doing to our country and to the world. More than scary. This is a fast-forward nightmare come to life in …

Talking back to book reviewers

MY BOOK GOT A FIVE-STAR REVIEW FROM AN ATHEIST. It might not sound like a good thing.  But I smiled when I saw it. I know smiles are good. I actually target non-Christians when I write. I figure if I can get them to read stuff about the Bible and …

Valentine video

FOR VALENTINE’S DAY, I videotaped a three-minute reading from the most famous love song in the Bible: Christian Love Song. Oddly, a bachelor wrote it. Way to go, Apostle Paul. The paraphrase is from 1 Corinthians 13 in the Causal English Bible I’ve …
