Dec. 7, 1941: "The destroyer Shaw’s forward magazine explodes after being struck during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor" (LA Times). Today, we remember the sailors who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor. *I will post a blog later about my experiences aboard the USS Pearl Harbor, but for now, let us honor these men and women.*

Anchored in the Standards of Truth

One of my favorite writers, bloggers, fathers and a true man of example in my life has inspired me to establish my own list of truths that the Father and Son have revealed to me over the 28 years of my life. I usually do not mention people in my blogs by name just in consideration of keeping their thoughts privatized in my mind...just in the name of confidentiality. However, Paul O'Rear has a blog that is a MUST-READ for any of my viewers. I am honored to be an active member of his Broken Heart Street Team, a working apparatus in his e-book becoming a reality, and everyone should immediately go to his web page and read his Principles: http://www.paulorear.com/the-principles/ So, just as Paul writes in the prelude of this blog, mine is very much a work-in-progress, but enjoy none the less!

Complacent Hearts

For the first time, I recently believed that I was ready to read, and thoroughly embrace, a book called Beautiful Outlaw by John Eldredge. After reading this book, a pastor from Atlanta, Georgia exclaimed in praise of this book, “I have fallen in love with Jesus all over again.” A pastor…Hmmm, if the impact of this book is THAT strong… “Am I ready to tackle this?” was the question I repeatedly asked myself until now. I have reached a chapter entitled, Disruptive Honesty, and would like to share some discoveries I have made and what has been weighing on my heart for a minute, now. It begins with a story from the Bible, as follows: “When Jesus had finished speaking, a Pharisee invited him to eat with him; so he went and reclined at the table. But the Pharisee, noticing that Jesus did not first wash before the meal, was surprised.
