Justice?

So, Bin Laden is dead. For many people that is like being told the bogeyman is gone. The question now is; what will they fear at night? For ten years Bin Laden has been the face of those who hate America, but simply getting rid of the face won't change the opinion of others, it…

Don’t forget to Vote!

Well, have you made up your mind yet?  You've had five weeks to decide but I'd be willing to wager that you had your mind made up long before then.  As a matter of fact, I would suspect that there hasn't been much done or said over the past five weeks that has had much…

Swing of Emotions

Penn of DennTalk about a swing in emotions.  I have been working on two separate messages this week, one for Good Friday and one for Easter Sunday. A message of despair and a message of hope. A message of defeat and a message of victory. A message about the depths that man can fall and…

You Will Get Caught

I read an article the other day that R & B singer Rhianna was mortified that nude pictures that she had sent her boyfriend, had surfaced and ended up on the internet. I wonder if it ever crossed her mind that having nude digital pictures floating around was a bad idea? It's not unusual to…

Quack

So they fired the Aflac Duck.  Well they didn’t actually fire the duck,  they just fired his voice.  It is kind of an interesting situation. Aflac hired comedian Gilbert Gottfried who is known for his insensitive and offensive humour but then they fired him because he sent a tweet that was insensitive and offensive.  Who…

Peter, Peter Peter.

Peter, Peter, Peter!  What were you thinking?  $400,000.00 on  Black Eyed Peas?  How many people were you feeding?   It’s not about the money..... well maybe it’s a little bit about the money, but you keep changing your story.  You didn’t know.  You did know but you didn’t know it was wrong.  You did know and…

Lucky or Blessed?

Crazy stuff on the news. In the past three months we have seen flooding of Biblical proportions (their words not mine) in Australia, earthquakes in New Zealand, earthquakes, erupting volcanoes and nuclear accidents in Japan and the U.S. has Charlie Sheen.  In a discussion with someone about the weird stuff happening worldwide I mentioned how…

Rollllll up the Rim

As a country, we have now come together for a national season of prayer.  Collectively, even though most folks wouldn’t consider Canada to have a national religion, it becomes very apparent at this time of year that we have a common point of faith.  I’m not talking about the season of Lent leading into Easter,…

Brothers with different Mothers

Do you know the name “Sayed Mossa”?  Well you should, he’s your brother, or at least your brother from a different mother, but you have the same father: God.   Mossa is a Christ Follower from Afghanistan who just recently escaped the death penalty. His crime?  Becoming a Christ Follower.  Sayed, a Red Cross worker, lost…

I have a bad feeling about this

Can anything good come from this? I think not.  Apparently a team of Russian scientist are ready to broach a lake in Antarctica that was been sealed since the last ice age.  Reports out of Moscow are that the group has been drilling for weeks to reach the lake hidden 3,750 metres (12,000 ft) beneath…
