Buggin' Out!

A Sex Addict's Gift

Steve entered into thought for a few moments and then said, “I don’t know. I hear that faith is supposed to move mountains. You have yet to move that empty can of de-icer that has been rolling around in your car’s trunk for the past year…the one that sounds like we are transporting a hostage every time we make a sharp turn, accelerate quickly or stop abruptly. I won’t rule this one out, but right now it’s iffy. Let’s keep an eye on it and see where it goes in 5 or 10 years.”.....[Cont.]

Bickering with Kevin

Over the years, I have shared how my friend Kevin and I bicker all the time. We bickered in the early years, when we first met and became accountability partners. We bickered during the ministry years, when we ran a Living Waters Program at our church. And we bicker in 2011, four years into Kevin’s decision to return to the gay lifestyle......[Cont.]

The Darker Side of Brotherhood

So what if I buy a lot of books, they help me. No. They don’t become dust collectors as soon as I get them home. Fine. If you are so opposed to me buying another book, I will not share its insights with you and I will be light years ahead of you in my healing process. That’s a lie! I do not have a book fetish. And I truly don’t care that you think I never actually read any of them. You have a membership to the gym and you are still chubby, but do I harass you about that? Aha! I heard that! And I am not going to ask if they have a book on overcoming defensiveness.......[Cont.]
