Collected for your entertainment (and mine), you'll find several (almost) poems about various aspects of my nerdy upbringing that I use as springboards into thoughts about the nature of being an adult, a parent, a functioning member of society.

The good news is that you'll understand it better. Plus I never say "thy" or "thine" or "thou" once in the whole thing. Oh, and none of it rhymes, unless by ...

The ministry of angels is part of our inheritance as believers. Yet, many are not receiving full benefit of their ministry because they don’t know how to activate it on their behalf. From my interaction with today’s Christians, very few have seen or encountered angelic visitations. Many of them are not even aware of angelic presence or don’t even know that they can be around them. This is because there are fewer teachings about angels and many Christians are never taught how to engage walk and work with angels in the first place.
