Comedian Reilly Armstrong’s wife recently gave birth to Everly, a healthy, precious little girl.  In celebration, I composed this little ditty for the newest little dictator of the Armstrong household: Everly, welcome to the world, your majesty.

Stand up comic, comedy club owner and long-time friend Vinnie Brand stops by to discuss his early days doing stand up and so much more. Vinnie has a unique technique in that he doesn’t write anything down – not a premise to a joke nor a structure to a story nor a blueprint to a routine – before hitting the stage.  It helps him feel and stay “in the moment”. So, how does this translate into real life? It’s... Read more

In the summer of 1998, all of America was stricken with baseball fever.  America’s favorite pastime was being ushered back into the forefront of the nation’s consciousness by two gargantuan sluggers – Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.  As they neared closer and closer to Roger Maris’ 1961 single season home run record, we gathered around our TV sets as nearly every channel on the lineup would break from their regularly scheduled programming to see if Big Mac or Slammin’... Read more

Galatians 5:22-23 says:   “But the fruit of the Holy Spirit the work which His presence within accomplishes is love, joy (gladness), peace, patience (an even temper, forbearance), kindness, goodness (benevolence), faithfulness, Gentleness (meekness, humility), self-control (self-restraint, continence). Against such things there is no law. 1 Corinthians 13:1-3 says: If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy... Read more

Matthew 6:13b (NKJV) For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

But as you will learn in this podcast, it really doesn’t matter. Because what Matthew quite possibly did not write, Paul most certainly did. Ephesians 3:20-21 (NLT) 20 Now all glory to... Read more

Grammy award winning singer and songwriter Russ Taff calls into the show this week to discuss honesty in prayer, marriage, recovery and so much more! Russ loves the honesty found in Robert Duvall’s character in the 1998 movie, “The Apostle” (which featured his Grammy winning song, “Ain’t No Grave”) when he would say something like: “I screwed up again. Help me, Lord. That’s why you died – ‘cause I can’t do it without You.” Russ and I go back... Read more
