Under Pressure
Last week I saw this headline on Yahoo! that these brothers from the UK have done a remix of Ice Ice Baby and Under Pressure. I’m in one of my distraction modes, so I click on it. Out comes these twins with these high top hairdos with back up dancer’s straight out of the 90’s. …

The Business of Being Equal
One of my passions is Diversity and Inclusion. Of all the work available in the world, at this point in my life, I feel like this space is one where I can serve best .

They Can’t Make Us
You have to admit, the great thing about The Roofless Church is that I get to go through these over thought rants of reflection so you don’t have to. My mind pretty much doesn’t shut off.

How To Glow In the Dark
It’s creeping on 6AM on Sunday morning. I was hoping that I’d still be sleep until at least 8:30 AM or whenever Calista gets up because I haven’t had much sleep in the past few days. But nature and a flip in my stomach has me up. I need to write. This morning I need…

I Sing Because I’m Happy
Someone I follow on Twitter posted a quote that said, “Birds don’t sing because they have an answer. They sing because they have a song.” I have never heard that one before, but it struck a chord with me and immediately led me to think about my younger brother Tony. As long as I’ve known…

Evil Is Laziness
In writing this post, I am making the assumption that most of you who visit this blog have made the choice to deliberately investigate your life and are open to going as deep as possible to know yourself. I will also assume that you believe that it is possible to know yourself as your Creator knows you much the…
