					<description><![CDATA[Every person called to the Lord’s work possesses three instruments: a jackhammer, a surgeon’s knife, and an anesthetic syringe. The test of spiritual discernment and wise leadership is to know when to use which instrument. Some are more gifted at using the jackhammer. This is the deconstructive ministry of the genuinely prophetic. Such people aren’t [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Last week, I wrote about living in transition. I opened the article telling you that Mrs. V. and I paid a visit to Alabama. It was a Friday when we arrived in the State “where the stars are so blue and the governor’s true.” On Monday, I joined my wife, who was lying in front [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In 2020, Mrs. V. and I drove to Alabama from Flawda (otherwise known as “Florida”). It took us 7 hours. So for 7 hours, we were in transition. Transition is passing from one place, position, or state to another. Right now, many of you are in transition of some kind, including spiritual transition. Here are [&#8230;]]]></description>

How some guy turned $47 and a dream into a mildly successful side hustle. And all the incessant shows on the Bible which are just repetitions of the “milk of [&#8230;]]]></description>

Okay, that’s not true, but it’s one of the few blogs that doesn’t repeat the tired talking points of the Conservative Right or the Progressive Left.
