Thank you, men and women who have worn the uniforms of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force or Coast Guard. On Memorial Day, we honor the fallen; on Veteran’s Day – today! – we honor the living who have given their time, talent and forsaken the pursuit of treasure to defend our country and […]

  I’m not sure if you’ve heard about it, but there’s an election tomorrow. That’s the big deal for Tuesday; what’s in store for Wednesday? The campaigns for the Top Spot have devolved over the last few weeks; they were already bouncing around the lowest common denominator, but in the race to the finish, the

You got what you asked for, and that’s Good News. This is a huge week for you: for America; for the World; and, for the Kingdom. By the middle of next week, a decision will have been made, and a course will have been set. What many are calling “the most significant election in our

What a difference a day makes: 24 little hours… That lyric was made familiar by Dinah Washington, in 1934. FDR was president then; the country was just coming out of the Great Depression that marked a couple of generations’ outlook about their place in history. How important, really, is any given day?

You have a decision to make. Are you going to be one of the “Silent Majority” in 2024? If that’s your plan, here’s one of the consequences of that decision: for the next four years, you cannot engage in any banter about what’s going on in America, politically. No matter what, your opinion – until

  “Why can’t we all just get along?” Rodney King was beaten by four Los Angeles police officers when they stopped him after a high-speed car chase in 1991; the beating was caught on video by a nearby resident, and it “went viral,” before the internet. The officers were ultimately charged, tried, acquitted, and the

  Bedtime stories of old had a short roster of often-repeated tales designed to transfer little minds from vertical troublemaking to horizontal recharging. Some worked; many didn’t. One recurrent story – dripping with wisdom – was “The Boy Who Cried, ‘Wolf.’” Remember that one? The lesson shadow cast by the story was clear: you might be able

“So… what denomination are you guys?”  Since founding Priority Living in 1984 – 40 short years ago – lots of people have labored to figure out what faith niche was our appropriate belief neighborhood. In a world working really hard to be fractured and divided, how could we be marginalized by our culture in an

   “Hi Bob. You don’t know me, but I read your newsletter…” I was in an airport – waiting to board my flight back to Orange County – when that chance encounter took place. He knew me… but I didn’t know him. How did he get on the distribution list for the Point of View?

Revolution?, or, Independence? The answer to that question depends on who’s asking. Ask a Brit about the conflict that spanned eight years – from 1775 to 1783 – and they’d say revolution. Ask an American, and they’re more likely to see it through the lens of independence. One’s paradigm defines one’s perspectives. Are we in
