Cessation and Rebirth
Am I deluded with all this prophet stuff? I dunno. Maybe. But I have nothing else. If this isn’t going to accomplish anything, it won’t change what I’m doing. What little sanity I can identify in this insane broken world … Continue reading
Micah 1
After briefly introducing himself and his ministry, Micah proceeds directly with his first vision. He draws an image of God as ruler of all Creation, sitting on His throne, not so much the symbolic throne in Jerusalem’s Temple, but the … Continue reading

Recent survey indicates lots of clergymen are becoming atheists. It would be cool if they simply left the ministry and did something else, but too many of them stay in religious leadership positions, which is utterly dishonest. At any rate, … Continue reading
