For an update on Kami, surf over to www.patrickmead.net Now, since I’m staying the hospital and internet access is spotty, I’ll keep this one brief. I deeply appreciate your prayers. They are being answered. Will God allow me to ignore my parents? If I can’t honor my parents in a way that still honors God [...]
I’m letting this question jump the queue since it touches on a subject we just went over a little bit ago. I will post as I can over the next two weeks, but be aware that my dear wife is having a hysterectomy Tuesday morning and will need my help 24/7 for awhile. We are [...]
Let’s be fair — most questions I get are ones I have thought of before and received often. However, this blog church I’ve stumbled into has come up with some real challenging ones and that has been fun. There are some questions I’ve never wondered about and one of them has popped up twice in [...]

This question came over the transom at tentpegsquestion@yahoo.com some time ago. It is a question I heard addressed frequently in decades gone by but not so much recently. Are the Masons the great enemy of the church portrayed by some? What are their beliefs? Is being a mason or associated with a club that is [...]
Two questions have come in recently asking my take on a book and a movie. I’ll go ahead and answer these and get back to the tentpegsquestion@yahoo.com pile later. I see over at your personal blog that you are reading/ have read "The Shack." What did you think of it? I am about to alienate [...]
