It’s easy to hate on Job’s wife. If you grew up in church and learned Scripture from a young age, her infamous proposal is absurd. How could anyone curse the Person they were told is so great since childhood? How could a true believer spite their “loving Father” and give up on the life He gave? The thought of doing that is … [Read more...]
Sometimes, It’s Just Duty
Why am I back here? For the past two weeks I’ve gone to the same table where I wrote the equivalent of a book before…and I just watched Youtube. Then after an hour passed, I lied to my girl each time she asked how the session went because I didn’t want her to know I didn’t care. So again, why am I here? Why do I still … [Read more...]
The Most Dangerous Feeling
She asked me if I was happy. How in the world do you answer that? You might be one of those weirdos who can spout “yes” without a moment’s thought, but me? I keep things complicated here. Sure, the newfound respect I gained in my career nudged me towards a “yes”. The rare lack of drama, sickness, and chaos did too. And … [Read more...]
To the Person Who Questions Their Abilities
Last week I said the two words only the most challenging problems force out of me: “What now?” Five previous attempts at part-swapping on the valve in front of me ended in failure. I couldn’t consistently get a metal rod in the valve to shift, and none of the usual suspects were causing the issue. Add in the pressure of an … [Read more...]
Why Johnny Depp’s Victory Was a Win for Me and Every Other Man Attacked by an Abusive Woman
“This chick has BPD.” It only took 15 minutes of watching Amber Heard’s testimony for me to see she had a personality disorder. I had no idea the trial between Heard and Johnny Depp would be livestreamed, so I didn’t tune in to the popular case until Heard’s team began their defense. Once I heard Amber speak, however, I … [Read more...]
HFE’s 100th Article! 7 Superpowers I Gained from Making a Content Library
I have a confession to make: I just lied to you. This isn’t actually my 100th article---I passed that milestone a few months ago. This is, however, the first time I’ve had 100 public articles on the site. So I thought I’d take this time to both celebrate and reflect. I never thought I’d make it this far to be honest. In … [Read more...]
This Simple Truth Will Help You Endure Life’s Hardest Times
Things were different five years ago. I barely had a footprint online, I was basically a social outcast, and I learned that the girl who loved me didn’t even exist. But since then, my work’s been viewed hundreds of thousands of times, countless people have thanked me for my efforts, and I’ve led some of the most unlikely … [Read more...]
8 Timeless Lessons Re-Learned from My Bout with COVID-19 (And from the Pandemic as a Whole)
Yep, I got it too. Earlier this year, I tested positive for the omicron variant of COVID-19. I’ve long since recovered though, and dare I say it, the world finally has too. Our new normal feels a lot more like the old one these days. Heck, I’ve even shed the mask I was forced to wear at my day job the last two … [Read more...]
Forget Money and Fame. This Achievement Determines if You’re Truly Successful.
It’s time to redefine success. I say that not as a jealous writer who’s achieved nothing of his own, but rather, as a survivor who knows the word means something more. More than the usual money and fame people associate with it. More than the views, likes, and followers the social media age is obsessed with. Real success … [Read more...]
5 Observations of an Undercover Bible Teacher That Will Improve Your Approach to Evangelism
Picture James Bond without the British ties, the intricate gadgets, and the promiscuous lifestyle. Instead of a license to kill, he has qualifications to teach. And rather than stopping the complex schemes of eccentric madmen with tactical flair, verbal sparring, and obvious plot armor, his mission is to spread a simple … [Read more...]
