The Super Blogosphere of a parallel word.

So it's almost approaching Easter time and there's lots to do. Coming from a Roman Catholic background, easter time was always a very serious time of the year. Now that I am a part of a nondenominational church, easter takes on a new importance for me. I was talking with my mom the other day and I asked her if she thought it was strange that I don't attend a Catholic church anymore. I don't believe anyone in my immediate family feels that it's somewhat peculiar, but the question I should be asking is to myself do I think it's strange that I know longer attend a Catholic church? I would have to say that I don't know how to respond to this question, other than what I've been learning over the past several years which has led me out of the Catholic Church and into Pentecostalism and nondenominational is something called doctrine. Being a 41 year-old male right now, and also when I was in my 30s.. I started to form my own doctrinal beliefs based on evangelic...

Many of us wonder and many of us are content at the way things are. I used to be the kind of person who questioned some things, I say somethings because it's hard to think of a word for some. I know that I never questioned the absolute. To question the absolute would mean spiritual suicide, even before I knew about God I had somewhat of a reverential fear for the person who created me. To think back on the life which is more than halfway finished, and to revel in the things that I've done and the things that I have yet to do, gives me pause to look at my life at the way that things are now. Of course no one is guaranteed tomorrow and that I will not repeat, but to live a life of regret has been something that I've always tried to avoid. Being loyal to my country has always been first priority in my life aside from my belief in a Diety. I was taught to be loyal to my country and to be loyal to my country means that I'm being loyal to my God. There are many ways that th...

The world is not a stranger, there are sites to see and places to go. But what became of the person that I used to know a blog a blog of poetry a blog of words meaningless until human beings put meeting to them.  I used to know a man who rambled quite a bit and was incoherent and what he said something like the homeless person that you see walking down the street on a cold winters day with no shoes on! Go see the priest they tell him go see the rabbi go see the clergyman, if you're looking for salvation you've come to the wrong place you won't find it here on the Internet well at least not on some of the sites. Sort of a self-education I've been giving myself recently, enough of the foolish talk. I've been reading about a condition called schizophrenia, something that supposed to stop life in its tracks. But what about the religion that I used to have before this apocalypse of truth, I digress. I'll tell you the truth something that you may not of considered bef...

Some people in strategic leadership positions Face a great hurdle trying to bring new ideas into a company or into society. One of the things that has to be overcome is the indifference of people to except new ideas. The most successful ideas that could be excepted always comes with an incentive, but what if there is no incentive to offer does that idea just float away into the ether? I would say the idea then becomes the incentive itself. In a good marriage there is give-and-take, you take in the groceries and I'll vacuum the carpet, you shoveled the driveway and I'll do the laundry! The give-and-take and the incentives can be endless in a relationship defined as marriage. But should incentives determine whether or not we will succeed in a business venture or not? What about religious organizations? Surley you cannot buy and sell religion as if to go to Walmart and pick up a loaf of bread! The incentives based model may or may not work with religious organizations, unless what...

Living a life as a 40 something has many challenges and advantages compared to when I was younger. The obvious one being that I'm still single, but the more complicated and difficult challenges that life throws at you you are more aware and prepared to handle something that may have given you more trouble when you were younger. I became a born-again Christian when I was 21, fell in love and then fell out of love. The romance department has been kind of well let's just say not happening, but that isn't a cause for depression... It's a cause to look at things as they really are! Most people my age would be extremely depressed that they had met that special someone yet, and believe me I know that there are people out there who are in the same situation that I'm in! Yet what the singleness have to offer compare to being in a relationship they are two completely different things. The obvious differences someone who is not single has another human being to snuggle up with...

My journey has not always been an easy one, but it has been graced by Mercy and truth even when I was in rebellion against God. I came to a saving knowledge of the gospel when I was 21 but quickly backslid back into a life of sin, not sin in it's full power however I was backslidden enough not to realize that I was in the spiritual danger. This is where the story gets good. I remember attending the lollapalooza  in my early 20s with a friend of mine. The first band onstage was Cypress Hill, I was not at Cypress Hill fan at the time and neither was the friend the female friend that I went with to the concert. We made our way closer to the front of the stage, and happened to come across some old friends of mine. As the song by Cypress Hill came out, a lot of people around us starting lighting up.. Not cigarettes mind you, I started to walk away from my friends motioning to my girlfriend to follow me. We were going to make her way to the beer tent even though none of us were going to ...

I happened to come across a quote on Facebook yesterday, The quote is provided in the picture below and the reads  "When these small groups are created within the community of God's people, these people believe they are being good Christians and also are acting in good faith maybe, but they are small groups who have privatized salvation." Pope Francis January 29, 2015. This morning I woke up early and went to blog talk radio and logged into my account and was going to give an audio commentary on what I believe the pope meant by those statements. I was interrupted by an unforeseen event so now I'm going to use my blog as a way of communicating what my views are on the biblical small group and how I feel about what the pope said about this. For those of you wanting to hear further commentary on blog talk radio my show is called the alternative viewX and if time permits me in the future I will do just that. But for now I will leave a link to this blog, underneath the com...
