When I hear the daily updates on what’s happening with the news I am struck by all of the nut jobs that are out looking for unarmed victims that they can attack. At times like that I am really glad that I live in Texas. That is no guarantee that the nut job won’t come for us, but it certainly makes him think twice.
I don’t know why people don’t understand that terrorist people who are mentally disturbed because of the drugs that have been pumped into them, antifa, and extreme Democrats (but I repeat myself) are looking for the weak targets because in their hearts, they know they’re cowards.
I hope I never have to be faced by the real potential of violence. I try to be prepared. At the same time, these killers are always looking for soft targets.
I tried to avoid visiting soft targets. I don’t think our church is a soft target. There might be some fool that thinks it is, but he will be in for a rude awakening, I think. I avoid stores that have the signs on the front saying that you can’t bring firearms inside. I’m sure that the terrorists will honor that wish of the owner of the business. Most medical facilities ban firearms. I go in with trepidation. It’s bad enough that I have to put up with the medical profession playing games with my life. To add to the danger by allowing only terrorist to come in armed is not something I enjoy.
Pray before anything happens. Stay alert. Go on with life. Don’t surrender to the attempt to destroy our freedom of movment and assembly. Even if something happens, with 350,000,000 people in the country the odds of it happening near you are slim.

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.
