He has been touted as the Robin Hood of McNuggets and across the Internet people have lauded him as a hero of the people. But the proper term for him is a thief. Recently, Cody Bondarchuk, of Edmonton tweeted, “I worked at McDonald’s for two-and-a-half years and I put 11 nuggets in almost every 10-piece…
Surrender Your Thoughts
Next week is December 1st, the first Sunday of Advent and that means that today is the last Sunday in our Surrender Series. And over the past few weeks I’ve been mulling over where I would land for this last message. Since Thanksgiving we’ve looked at various areas of our lives that we need to…
It’s Beginng to Sound a Lot Like Christmas
What a change, one day they were playing “Material Girl” and the next they were playing “Mary’s Boy Child”. Within 24 hours, they had gone from playing songs by Madonna to playing songs about the Madonna. Last week, 96.5 changed its format from easy listening to 24/7 Christmas music. At first I wasn’t a fan,…
Surrender Your Bitterness
She has met with leaders and celebrities around the world and whether or not you agree with her views you have to admit that Greta Thunberg is an angry young lady. And when i hear her speak, I kind of suspect that she is not only angry but bitter as well. Her speeches are scattered…
Give Thanks
I trust that all of us will take time on Tuesday to stop and reflect on the blessings we have in our wonderful nation. Now before you start thinking I’m mixed up concerning dates, I know that Tuesday isn’t Thanksgiving, but you need to understand that Tuesday, November 19th is World Toilet Day. I can…
The Price of Love
The price some pay for love. Recently it was reported that McDonald’s corp had fired its Chief Executive Officer, Steve Easterbrook after it had been revealed he was involved in a consensual relationship with an employee. There was no hint of harassment or anything untoward in the relationship. The board of directors simply determined that…
Surrender Your Anger
If I asked you to think of an angry person, I would suspect it wouldn’t take very long for a particular person to come to mind. Don’t look around. Maybe your boss, or a stranger that you’ve never met, but you’ve witnessed their anger, maybe it’s someone you are close to, perhaps a parent…
Autumn Colours
Angela and I were marvelling at the Autumn colours earlier this week as we were driving back from shopping. The trees were a kaleidoscope of colours, no two the same. It wasn’t hard to imagine Jack Frost painting each leaf individually. One of the many things we missed during our time in Australia were the…
Surrender Your Speech
Last week I told you about the best summer job I ever had, and it was working on a ocean going salvage tugboat that went to the North Pole in 1981. But I had my first summer job at sea when I was fifteen and for the first two summers of my high school years…
Shameful
Well, the election is over. For some of you the results were cause for celebration, for other’s not so much. I always marvel at the number of people who choose to not cast a ballot. And if you fall in that category it is shameful and inexcusable. People say, “But Denn you don’t understand, I…
