Posted on September 14, 2020 by RC

It is my habit when asked “Why is the church…” to look for what is often the obvious answer, that the problem is people, and not at all exclusive to the church. This is certainly true in this case, that … Continue reading →

Posted on September 4, 2020 by RC

Some Dance to Forget

Posted on August 29, 2020 by RC

Winning the Battle, Losing the War

Posted on August 28, 2020 by RC

Sometimes the same thing needs to be said, over and over. I try, hard as it is, to not repeat myself across the various media I use. If I tweet something I likely won’t talk about the same issue on … Continue reading →
