Target Canada (Target Brands Inc) is Totally off the Mark
Wow. It’s pretty rare that something happens in the corporate world that is so pathetic that it blows my mind, however, Target Canada (Target Brands Inc) has done it. My friend Paul told me that he was unable to view the products that Target sells on their website. I refused to believe him and didn’t even bother checking. Finally, he…

Overcoming the ‘spirit of christmas’ with the Spirit of Christ: Part 2 in a Series: Tree vs Vine
Compare and contract this: Jeremiah 10:1-5 (underline added) Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of Israel:Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them. For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a…
Overcoming the ‘spirit of christmas’ with the Spirit of Christ: Part 1 in a Series: Roots
This series (I’m assuming it’s going to be a series because I really expect this to blow up into something interesting) did not come out of one moment of frustration, or a single event, but instead it has been developing inside of me for many years.
