It heals the nations. Your nest in here. No more enemies,. No more fears mmmm! Those we once shunned. Of ways to live just. It's bigger than us (open your eyes to see). It's more than us right here. It's bigger than us(the kingdom is at hand). Are you a believer? No more reason for guns. Are dead and gone.

Stuff We May Find We Need in Life. Wednesday, November 03, 2004. If You See a Good Fight Get in It". This essay is mainly for religious people particularly in light of the re-election of President George W. Bush. This notion that religion or "family values" or "cultural conservatism" equals morality or that religious fervor automatically translates into just public policy or that the morality of self-interest and domination is morality at all is absolutely misbegotten. Well, it's a. There is a definite p...

Home-Training: Step in the Name of Love
http://hometraining.blogspot.com/2005/05/step-in-name-of-love.html
Stuff We May Find We Need in Life. Friday, May 13, 2005. Step in the Name of Love. I never had any intentions of making. A political series. So allow me to make a hard right and touch on a subject that speaks more to the heart than to the mind. Love. All they have to offer. Is gold to be treasured and guarded, easily hoarded or used as currency to secure the desires of their hearts. Quite often, with no malicious intent whatsoever, gentlemen and ladies find themselves sitting back waiting for love to...

Why do folks call you Revelations? He asked. "It used to be because I preached from that Book. But now because I reveals.". Saturday, October 28, 2006. Footprints. A Brand New Dance.

Home-Training: The Day After
http://hometraining.blogspot.com/2008/11/day-after.html
Stuff We May Find We Need in Life. Tuesday, November 04, 2008. Published on God's Politics. As the 2008 Presidential campaign draws to a close, I've become increasingly less concerned about the specific outcomes of election night and more concerned by what we will have positioned ourselves to accomplish the day after.

http://hometraining.blogspot.com/2008/07/artistic-ramblings.html
Stuff We May Find We Need in Life. Tuesday, July 22, 2008. Good Art Gives- But Doesn't Always Sell. Published on God's Politics. I've been on a real art binge of late. Reading, watching, listening to, experiencing and creating as much as I can. Good art isn't just creative, it's generative, that is it inspires creative acts in others. It gives us hands to shape the world in new and living ways. And I've been thinking a lot about how much this world we share needs more of it. Posted by Melvin Bray. Althou...
